Members PunkKitty Posted May 12, 2012 Members Share Posted May 12, 2012 Perennial favorite here on HCEGI have one. It's a really nice guitar. I'm tempted to order a second and install mini hums in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members kccheers Posted May 12, 2012 Members Share Posted May 12, 2012 I have one. It's a really nice guitar. I'm tempted to order a second and install mini hums in it. Is this MIM, or where? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Fusion1 Posted May 12, 2012 Members Share Posted May 12, 2012 I am wondering if the trans black finish looks more like black or like it does here where it almost looks brown? The pic on Hello Music looks more like a plain black which I prefer than the brown stain look. Which is more realistic in person? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PunkKitty Posted May 12, 2012 Members Share Posted May 12, 2012 It looks more like a brownish black stain. It's not a plain black. The HM pic is more accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fusion1 Posted May 12, 2012 Members Share Posted May 12, 2012 The HM pics looks more plain black, the other pics I see on the web look like a brown stain. The HM pic doesn't look like a stain at all. I don't mind transparent finishes but the pic I see sort of look like a picnic table that was stained with formbys and I don't care for that look. If it was mostly black with the grain showing a little then I might not mind. I don't see any other pics looking like the HM pics though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PunkKitty Posted May 12, 2012 Members Share Posted May 12, 2012 My bad. It looks more like the pic that has "peach" written across it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fusion1 Posted May 12, 2012 Members Share Posted May 12, 2012 Ok thanks I will have to pass on this then. I already have the Squier Classic tele with p90s and it is ok but it does feel cheap. Since the Fender is MIC, I'm not sure it will be much different than the one I already own and am not overly impressed with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the Fender is MIC, I'm not sure it will be much different than the one I already own and am not overly impressed with. Somebody was impressed, Trans Black is sold out. SB is still available. Squiers are mostly Made in Indonesia and have different dimensions than their Fender counterparts. I personally really like the Tele necks that come from Indonesia, e.g. Squier '51.

Members Fusion1 Posted May 12, 2012 Members Share Posted May 12, 2012 The Squier 51 was a cool guitar but the neck was the worst part of that guitar. I think I sold mine for $40 with the tuners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You had a bad one. The neck on this is awesome! I had 3 and sold each one for $150-$190. Really wish I had kept one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members buddhapaugh Posted May 12, 2012 Members Share Posted May 12, 2012 My VHT Lead 20 combo arrived from Hello Music yesterday. For $327 shipped it is a no-brainer.2 useable channels. FX Loop switchable from series to parallel. Accutronics reverb tank. Celestion Heritage 30 watt speaker. Solid as all get out, too, with the birch finger-jointed cabinet. This is a hell of a lot of amp for just over $300! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fusion1 Posted May 12, 2012 Members Share Posted May 12, 2012 The neck width was narrow and the fret ends were sticking out both sides and running your hand down the neck you get sharp edges. This was par for course and was one of the most mentioned complaints about the 51. I sold the neck for $40 but I kept the body and all the electronics. You had a bad one. The neck on this is awesome! I had 3 and sold each one for $150-$190. Really wish I had kept one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cobalt Blue Posted May 13, 2012 Members Share Posted May 13, 2012 This is not my guitar--don't even think I know this person, though it's possible that he's also a member here--but this is a partscaster listed at thegearpage.net that I think is a truly excellent deal. If I weren't in sell mode, I would buy it. 285.00, shippedhttp://www.thegearpage.net/board/showthread.php?p=13087667#post13087667 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
