  1. Wow. Some people's children. I can only believe your poor mother has to say the same about you being her biggest mistake. I mean, the thread title may as well have said: "HEY EVERYONE!! Look at me! I'm over here! You know, the one picking his nose and eating his boogers! I'm here! Right here! I matter! Look! Look at me! Hello? Someone? Anyone?
  2. Have you played one before? I didn't like it. The cleans are fine, but the overdrive is terrible. You could get a Classic 50 for about the same. But that's a fair price for that amp.
  3. Weighs a metric ton... You fail at reading comprehension.
  4. First off, let's just state what it is: US Made Bolt on neck with micro tilt adjustment 2 HB pickups with coil tap Peavey adjustable bridge 3 Piece Ash Body (Naturals and Bursts...Alder body on painted) Peavey USA Made Tuners Metal Nut Okay, back in 1978, they sold for $350 with Hardshell case. Hartley felt there was a hole in the mid-range guitar market where Fenders and Gibsons started at $600 to $700. Adjusting for inflation, $350 is equivalent to $1,150 in 2006. This is a rock solid guitar with great tones. A lot of people say they're heavy, but I have a 1978 slab-type body (ash) and it weighs just shy of 9 lbs...less than most LP's. Yet, you can routinely get one of these for $300 to $400 (I have seen some of these go for as much as $800, but they were virtually unplayed and still had the plastic film on the pickguard). That means that, in 30 years, this guitar has not gone up in value from its original purchase price. There will be a few naysayers who say they're ugly, the neck's too thin (a legitimate complaint if you like thick necks), or they don't like the sound (I find this difficult to comprehend...but everyone's entitled to their opinion), but the majority of the people who play one fall in love. So, is this the best bang for the buck guitar on the market today? Here's a crappy picture of mine:
  5. It can also look like this. If you prefer things on a slightly larger scale. Show off
  6. Is the baby pine tree required? Ab-So-{censored}ing-Lutely
  7. This is what Rock and Roll looks like, and don't anyone ever forget it:
