I owned a Jackson Rhoads.

I had a guitar with a corian nut. I don't know, I wasn't a fan, but then again, the whole guitar was set up wrong.

BTW I'm having good luck with corian. You can get 2" square samples at Lowe's, Homeboy's, etc. for free. You have to have a vice and a hackwaw to make the blanks, but corian is good {censored}, Maynard. I haz one customer who was burning thru nuts because of his insane whammy use. I put a Corian nut on his geetar and haven't seen him in a year. Well I actually saw him last nite and he's still raving about his nuts (DON'T GO THERE!!!!!)

Have you considered a Hagstrom? Maybe a Deuce or a Viking?
I just searched that. Wow, pretty good value on the used market.
-
Update: I'd like to spend around $1,200 at most. Maybe a little more if I decide to order a custom Carvin.
I'd like to buy a thin skin Jazzmaster, but those are very hard to find apparently. Might just go with an AVRI.

Seriously? I had no clue ( not the first time)..I honest to god thought it was a typo or a joke. I deleted that post, cause the Klon pedal was specifically what I was talking about, and it did not read that way..Amazing. Must be a beast of a pedal..
Yeah, they're super crazy/expensive. Have not played one.

How do you like it if I buy this guitar from him and try to sell it to you as a real Ric ?
HOw about we make a title for all of the self righteous HC policemen to remove posts that are in violation of HC TOS?
Oh wait, we have mods that do that. PM the guy if you have a problem, don't try to {censored} up a sale here.
Oh, on topic I have a generic alnico bridge humbucker for sale for $15. 2 generic single coils for $5 each.
-
I love mine. I think they're still kind of scarce at the moment, though.
What do you love about it?
-
I would think if you dig the regular model, the ones with the piezo would be more or less the same. If they're good enough for Petrucci, they're good enough for us mortals
No {censored}.
-
I remember you said you wanted a Petrucci sig model right? Have you tried one? Piezo, comfy shape and they look sick. Not sure about the versatility of the pickups.
I can't find one with the piezo in my area, although that would be really nice to check out.

How about the Johnny Marr jag?

PRS. take your pick of the aforementioned DGT, Mira, or the SC58 (or the Stripped version).
There are so many options to be had with the PRS line. I had a black swamp ash special that sounded pretty good, but the bridge HB went microphonic. I found the neck to be a little unwieldy. What're some of the options?
You guys might be right about the JM. I'm playing my parts-jazzblaster and its
-
Then my recommendation becomes even more relevant.
I'll have to give one a play. Not too into the looks of them, but I'm sure there's a few around that looks more traditional.
-
for those of us who are not aware - what kind of music do you play?at the budget you describe, perhaps you are headed for a custom build?also, steak dinners are $4 in OK.
I'm a jazz student who fronts an indie rock band. Think The Arctic Monkeys and John Frusciante had a 3-way with J. Mascis.
-
Gibson es-339 might be right up your alley.
Had one of those, they're really nice.

ESP Eclipse.
Not sure if serious or trolling.
I don't know too much about them. School me?
-
If you've gone through many guitars already you should have a good idea.
But I don't. I just keep flipping things because there's something about each of them that rubs me the wrong way. I have no idea about radii, necks, scale lengths or pickup polarity. I'm more of a player. I should probably learn that stuff though..
-
High interest in the Heritage semi-hollows. All about Michigan-made products! That and possibly a FSR Thin-skin special run. No place around me to try either.

I already own a strat. I don't need another one. I've gone through a million guitars, and I really want to find one that I want to keep forever. Let's just put a budget cap of $2,500 (what I could get after selling some gear).
I like the sound of Les Pauls, but the neck heel makes playing higher noted difficult.
I like 335's, but they're a little out of my price range I think.
I like Jazzmasters, but I haven't bonded with any of them I've owned. I haven't owned an AVRI.
Tele's are cool, but I don't twang.
Not sure if I dig short-scale.
I own a 68 SG special, but they seem really fragile.
Most of you know what kind of music I play.
What're some suggestions? And by suggestions, I don't mean "go to the music store and play a million guitars"
-
The Deluxe Reverb has been recorded constantly.
-
Hilarious thread is hilarious... THE REAL ROCKER
-
So white people can't be sad and play music to alleviate some of their pain?
-
yeah, I watched part of that yesterday when someone was talking about the JM sig strat. i wondered what was unique about it. I turned it off when he said that when the custom shop delivered the guitar it sounded like {censored}, so he put it in the freezer overnight and it sounded great. That dude must smoke alot of weed.

Thin Lizzy {censored}in Rules!
You've got my vote.

Feel free to give me your 335 to ease your conscience.
