Yeah I think I heard a soundclip of it once and it just sounded like the most useless fuzz imaginable. EDIT: Not a guitar, but we need to follow conventions.  |

That's differently abled.
Should at least be Guitar Capy.
Also dear guitar thread,
Despite repeated attempts I played 7 shows in 7 days and broke not one string.
I hereby decree it is quite ok to follow soundguys home and provide them with a blanket party. I'm pretty sure it is in the Bible/Torah/Koran/Waffle House menu.

Those were in St Louis Mo, at a club called Fubar. We ended up playing in the lounge because 3 or 4 local acts cancelled. Fortunately Illicitizen travels with a complete PA so we actually had the same sound we practice w/. Also the photos were by a pro we hired for this gig (Peter Wochniak).

I KNEW that place looked familiar. I caught my brother's band playing there a while back. Also, I'm digging that finish on your Nitefly. Mine's just the barely-transparent red. |

Oh wow. Is your's a mojo? The pics peter took make it look really good. And it is. But I regret I used to use a heavier pick as I've scratched the face pretty badly. No matter I would never sell that gtr anyway.

It saddens me to see instruments rot in museums, or display cases, or something. They are meant to be PLAYED dammit. I dream of an organization that collects guitars of rockers past and lends them out to the most worthy musician... Babbling aside, I've been thinking of getting a Gretsch Electromatic Double Jet and replacing the pickups with Seymour Duncan DeArmond Dyna-Sonics. Basically I want the best Gretsch sound I can get at a third of the price. |

Yeah. How are they? Contemplating buying a new backup rather than modding out the tele as previously planned. I agree with Jeph and my wife, might not be worth the effort. Anyway, looking for a good HH guitar in the $800 range. Thoughts?

A new Peavey EXP signature series can be picked up for well under that. Seriously... I have guitars that cost three times as much that aren't nearly as well put together. Mahogany body, set neck with almost no heel, a full two octaves. Really a very nice guitar. Caveat: Some people hate quilt tops (I don't) and it's a chunky--though very fast-- neck. There's also a variety of PRS SEs out there for about $700. Though I don't think it's quite as nice as the Peavey, (huge heel, the nut on mine wasn't well dressed on the high E side) it's still a very nice guitar for the price, and I like the pickups a little more. Plus 25" scale is fun. |

I've never liked Peavy guitars all that much. They use active pickups in many of their lines and bleh... For ~$800 I always thought this was tits on ice cream. Reso-glass top, and a peizo pickup. |

Before you dismiss Peavey guitars altogether, try playing a t-60. Heavy as a boat anchor and built like a missile bunker, but it plays so beautifully. I found one in my friend's basement that belonged to his dad (who hadn't touched it in 10 years) and I think he had to pry the guitar out of my hands after I got ahold of it.  |

I want the next guitar I get to be a 7-string. I like the idea of the extended range, being able to basically play in B or standard tuning without retuning. |

Personally, I just want my damn Squier back so I can get her a new hum-cancelled bridge pickup, solder it into place, and tune it to drop C. I only want to do this so I can play "The Background" by Third Eye Blind without fucking with my other guitars' tunings. That and a little metal from time to time wouldn't kill me. It'd help my chops, at least...

My exact opinion of 6-string basses. 5-string I can understand because it's basically the same as an extension on upright bass plus an extra semitone. |
