  1. If you make a lot of random posts you can quickly raise your status., at least that’s what I did
  2. I have Nashville tuning on one of mine right now. It’s not something I play a lot but it has a place . It’s the octave strings a 12 string would use. As you can see G is the highest string then it goes down for B and E
  3. I would love to have a dedicated guitar room. The kids moved out and I looked at the bedrooms but somehow they’re still storing they’re stuff there. Nice setup
  4. So are you President of the Ibanez of the month club But seriously congratulations on another winner
  5. There would be no happy ending
  6. My wife caught me looking at guitars and surprised me with a Christmas guitar I have to take back everything I said about the Riviera. I tried one at GC a while back and was turned away from them. The unit I tried had what I suppose was a small crack from shipping damage. I said no thanks and walked away. Well now that I have one at home and am getting to know it I love it It’s flawless and was fairly well set up needing only tuned to start playing. Frankly it is one sexy guitar . The neck feels good not like some of the older Epi rubber necks . The minibuckers are brighter and the audio taper pots are responsive . So yeah I’m happy.
  7. The video is the cat using one of the balls for a punching bag.But the thought is still Merry Christmas
  8. If the video didn’t play
  9. IMG_8093.MOV Merry Christmas to Everyone
  10. They must be. My free T shirt says they are
  11. Tim Lerch seems to be impressed with them
  12. It appears that you’re using a Strat pickup. Have you checked out Strat pickup rings? They are available from several sources.
  13. The same one that holds a guitar. Likely pantyhose.
  14. Another stocking stuffer The Monoprice 15 watt amp. A $250 tube amp that gets surprising reviews by some
  15. I don’t mind changing the sound of a guitar including upgrading pickups. I don’t buy a guitar with the intention of changing the neck , it’s just not worth the hassle Also body thickness is important to me. I’m not interested in a thin body Telecaster.
  16. I would have to have play one and give it a good look over . If the neck doesn’t feel good nothing else matters to me.
  17. I like the look of the white T7 but don’t need another mediocre Tele
  18. Come on now . How long will you beat a dead horse
  19. Welcome I really can’t help you with the value But you may get more responses if you star a new thread. People have a tendency not to read a ten year old thread
  20. So will you be suing McD’s welcome back
  21. Talk about an interesting finish, when I was a teen I had a cheap guitar that I decided to refinish. I looked around the basement and found a can of yellow paint that seemed like it would be a good base coat. Mainly it was an ugly color that I wanted to use up. After I considered the base dry the top coat was applied, gloss black. I was rather proud of myself as I hung it from a pipe to dry. A day or so later I came back to check on it and was rather surprised, the yellow had bled through and the result was like black and green marble. It sort of almost looked good. I don’t think I ever got around to putting it back together again.
  22. What . No Kyle Busch tribute? He’s the idiot that smashed a hand made Gibson and one of the reasons I quit watching
  23. I happened by this on YouTube today. It seems to be matte black over burst. Interesting concept and great result here’s the video
