Separate names with a comma.
A good setup is not a trivial thing, which is why most stores either don't do it, or only give it a lick and a promise. Don't want to tie up a...
The only time the nut can possibly affect the tonal characteristics of the guitar is when playing open strings. I don't know how often that...
They're not bad, they just look as if they've never been polished.
Very nicely done! Decent couches/loveseats that you won't sink into and not be able to get out of or play guitar while sitting on are...
I'll bet if you'd have noticed it before taking it home and refused to accept it, they'd have had another one in there a helluva lot faster than 2...
What's "important" is that you're comfortable and like what you hear. You can get that from damn near anything old/new, good/bad, fancy/plain,...
There are always stories of "outside" cases where some success is achieved while engaging in a practice that shouldn't work. They're anomalies,...
With the necks, they're not talking about construction details when they say "unfinished". What they mean is they need a hard finish. Lacquer or...
Warmoth makes double-neck Strat and Tele bodies, but you're not going to get one for $300, and it's not a kit. You'll still have to buy a couple...
I agree. I put those knurled knobs on everything. Don't care what it is. They're easy to operate, and they look good. What's not to love?
Congrats on the new amp! I went through a few of those and V55s back when they first came out. Lotta amp for the money, and sound really good if...
I don't even own a can of contact cleaner because the problem with that stuff is if it works at all, it's just a palliative move. You think you've...
Probably needs an output jack, and quite possibly a couple new pots. They're not hard to replace. Don't even need drawings. Simply put a new part...
Why replace the pickups? New pickups don't necessarily sound better. If you don't know enough to know what you want, you could burn through a...
Just play it. It'll get worn. The metal parts will oxidize and the shine will wear off. The finish will get scratched/dented/chipped/abraded. The...
They may have decided they didn't like the margins on them any more. Guitar Fetish has been selling some pretty nice bodies/necks for a while now...
I'm not into "relic" guitars or parts. I'm with Barny Stinson... [IMG] Newer is always better! But, Google is your friend. Lotsa people like...
I seriously doubt they're parting out "perfectly good" guitars. It's more likely they're buying seconds, "B" stock, warranty write-offs or damaged...
My first partscaster was pitiful. The thing had ugly in the bank, and it played/sounded terrible. In my defense, it was about 45 years ago and I...
Sounds good. Got that articulate, organic Strat sound, and not as noisy as I would have expected with single coils.
That's likely the way I'd go. I don't like to go without a pickguard on lacquer as it's not as durable as poly, but I have done it in the past...
I've got a raw Soloist body sitting in the closet just rotting that I may try that on this coming summer. Only thing that might hold me back is...
Absolutely gorgeous! CAR is my favorite Strat color. I've always wanted to do one myself.
Absolutely beautiful! Great job! One to be proud of, that's for sure.
Not to discourage you, but the feel doesn't really change from poly, and contrary to dogma the sound doesn't change at all, and finally, it's a...
