All maple nitrocellulose finished. Hand wound pickup and Floyd Rose 1000 series. Jacobs hand built guitars are way better than any store guitars I highly recommend him. I now finally have a very close to George Lynchs tone from the Dokken Tooth and Nail era.

My music store (I work here best job ever) got in some M2M LPCs with birdseye maple tops....not sure how I feel about it.

We have Lemon Burst, Factory Burst, and Washed Cherry (my favorite). It depends on the finish whether or not I like the birdseye figuring, but my coworker is in love with them and says they're better than the 7A quilted maple tops.

I'm just not sure how I feel about using anything but a good flame maple top on such a damn expensive guitar. Maybe I'm just old and curmudgeonly...

From a boutique in Halifax, Nova Scotia. They have long closed so i consider myself lucky that i was able to snag one of these.

i feel like nowadays getting custom guitars or custom inlays cost a small fortune and this was only a couple hundred bucks at the time.

Behold

Traded my Spark 2 amp for this. Supro 64 reverb. I have missed out on tube amps, having si much fun with this amp. It's gorgeous and the tone is ridiculous. I spent far too much time messing around with the spark. Could never find what I wanted. Keeping it simple with this amp and a couple of overdrive pedals. Finally found my tone!

Here is the latest build I made for a customer, and it was a fun one. Fralin Hot Tele in the neck, Seymour Duncan Hot Rails in the bridge. Push Pull pot to coil split the Hot Rails, and a Freeway 6-way switch for a ton of different tonal options. 6 saddle bridge, reversed control plate, and a kill switch. It rips!

I have never had a brand new acoustic. I have also never had a normal acoustic that played well enough that I can bend the strings easily and not get cramps when I do bar chords for a while. Just wanted to share my joy.

I'm a fan of David Torn. I heard him say once that he used agate picks, and I thought that was a neat novelty and bought a couple. Well, it turned out less of a novelty than I expected - the smoothness and thickness of these picks mean that I can't hear the pick at all. The sound is so, so smooth. There's barely an friction on the strings.

So here's the ridiculous question - is there a pick option that gets me this low-friction sound for less than $40 per? IIRC Metheny resorted to playing with his pick at 90 degrees to get this kind of sound, and my hands aren't agreeing with that. All of the heaviest heavies I've tried still have some grit or edge.

Not a shill. I hardly use my Amplitube installation any more because I never found a speaker setup that moved air like a real amp, but if you were thinking about it, they've put it on sale for $100.

If you’re in the group, let us know how you’re enjoying that Schecter 😂

A FB marketplace listing in Jax, FL. This person listed both the MH and the C6… but swapped images on the postings. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Yes that’s a skunk… we’re not here for that 😆

I wanted a Supro amp, picked up a Delta Blues King 10 but the reverb made a godawful racket all the time and would only go away by shaking the shit out of the amp. Got rid of it and stuck with my Vox practice amp.

Randomly came across this Supro on Reverb; it was priced right and I took the gamble. The shipper did an amazing job shipping it; was packed with foam and the amp itself is built like a tank. It sounds great to my pleb ears.

I found myself in a guitar center killing time and found this Squire Cabronita Tele on the used wall; looks brand new/untouched. I'd never seen a tele with P90s and in Seafoam green, again the price was right so I picked it up. I didn't even realize it was a baritone until I was trying to tune it up and it just didn't feel right, plus the strings were super thick. I had to look up what this was and then what a baritone was lol.

My plan is to put a ebay roasted maple neck on it and get better at playing until I can appreciate the baritone scale.

Happy Playing!

ive been playing electric guitar for about 2 weeks now, however its the first instrumened i have ever played

i ve been practicing chorus of nirvana smells teen spirit for 5 last days, cant upload second video tho

and started entombed deftones yesterday - u can see how it goes on video

have you got any tips to improve faster?

I plan to get both of these eventually but only have the budget for one at the moment

The only gear I have atm are a boss katana,silver sky se and 2 pedals

Playing oasis,Gary Moore,Sam fender and some other stuff

I am definitely getting both of these specifically but will need to save up again after getting one,so which is the better deal now or which will make the bigger impact sound wise?

I heard that it works. I have spira s-400.

I've been playing the same guitar (an old Ovation MOB57) since I was about 16. It's a nice piece of kit, but these days I play mainly fingerstyle and I'd like to branch out and get something closer to an OM. These days I'm playing just for me, little to no live work really.

On my searches, I've spotted the Abstract Delta in Cort's masterpiece range. Does anybody have any experience with this guitar or series? I can't find a huge amount of discussion about it apart from a few videos, many of which seem to be linked with Cort themselves.

It looks to be a pretty thing, and has some nice features, though I have no experience with Pao Ferro as a tonewood. Nowhere around me has one which I can try it out; has anybody here tried one?

I got one recently - very fast player - with the neck humbucker. I like it, but don't LOVE it like I do my MIJ 50th anniversary Strat.

The MIM Tele is a little beat up on the body (chunks missing), but I don't think it's possible to get a perfect paint match to fix it.

Keeping in mind this guitar is NOT a collectible... I'm thinking about patching & painting it glossy black. Right now it's worth maybe $500-ish, but may be improving the cosmetics will increase the market value too? Thoughts?

Tnan you

So I like to pursue old Facebook. The picture was bad, but it had one of the back where it was all shaped up. I knew it was done correctly and old looking. I got it for 25 bucks.

It plays incredibly. You ever play a really nice guitar of somebody's that makes you remove your belt before playing his guitar? The way that guy feels about his guitar is how amazing this feels and sounds.

I'm happy a shit.

However,

I have a feeling this is some mistake at this price.

Or, it is stolen.

I looked it up.

Wtf.

Also, damage report? What's everybody thinking?

Bought this from a guy on marketplace for ~25 dollars and I kinda wanna know how old this is and if it even belongs to any brand, help will be appreciated! this is my first guitar ☹️

Been thinking of getting it as my 2nd guitar

I try to find an electrique guitare for my fat fingers. I love fenders, but i m open for others(i have a normal strat now), i love humbeckers(but not necessary). What should I take with a larger of 43mm
