Its awesome to have a well detailed post of some length not filled with trivialities that sponsors honest debate and opinions and not get derailed by trollish answers.
A lengthy read is good for the mind and reminds us of how spoiled we have become with text speak, what a conversation is about...

Hope you stay playing and keep posting.
Rock On!
My buddy is hard on the hunt for one of those.
Started me looking into it and discovered that after much searching there does not seem to be a user manual, wiring diagram, no specifications on body wood, fret board etc… to be found. YMMV.
I listened to some sound samples and the Fuzz from the...
Collectors really appreaciate those that are getting rid of vinyl as its taking up space.. :)
You might be suprised at what even some of the ”commons” are going for simply as they are the original release. YMMV
I spend a couple hours a week hanging out at the local used record store and vinyl...
Niche yes, absolutely… but there’s alot of bands that put out material back then doing Neo-classical material albeit a lot where from across the pond.
I tracked down and many and one USA neo-classical guy that I followed was Joe Stump as well as his other bands. Man can he play. “Night of the...
I have 3 scalloped guitars (2 Strats and 1 Tele), Its the way to go IMHO. It does change the dynamics on how you play. I even changed the nuts out for Brass as well. :-)
BUT….what I have found is in general that people either love Scalloped necks or dislike them. There appears to be no...
