Everyone saw that post earlier and thought "hmm... no, no, that joke is just too unfunny and over-used". Patrick saw the same post and shouted out "hot damn, this is the perfect opportunity for a hilarious joke!"

I've played it and am now lusting after one. The shop was charing £749 for the recent Classic Player model, that seems awfully expensive. On the internet they go for about £550, around about the same as my Strat, hopefully.

Before you buy anything, test a CP Jag with 'buckers. I saw a diagram that one of the guys from OSG posted, and apparently Fender replaced the rhythm circuit with coil blending, you can have it go full single-coil, full humbucker, or somewhere in the middle. The volume and tone knobs by the jack still do what they were made to do, and the strangle switch still strangles.

I really want to check that motherfucker out, because seriously, that sounds like it'd be a beast. Not to mention a 6-string Swiss Army knife.

That sounds pretty cool but I think it would be almost impossible to find any. Even the normal Jags and JMs are really rare.

Patrick, you're on OSG, could you tell me what GAS stands for?

Hey guys, what's the general opinion on the Squier Classic Vibe series? I'm usually one of the idiots who might discriminate against a instrument just because of the big "Squier" stamped on the headstock, but apparently these things are good. Like, really good. One guy on OSG called the 50's Telecaster one of the best guitars he's ever played, and I've seen a lot of other reviewers say things that come pretty close to the same. And they're $350 (http://guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/Squier-CLASSIC-VIBE-Telecaster-50s-Electric-Guitar-?sku=519376).

Apparently, most don't even make any modifications to them, claiming that the stock pickups and parts are good enough to leave. This really has my interest piqued, and I'm afraid an impulse buy might be following. Any words of encouragement/discouragement?

They are spectacularly beautiful guitars, and they play pretty damn well for the price.  The neck was big for my tastes, but that's just because I'm used to the neck on my Dano which is fairly thin.

Could anyone tell me what exactly this thing is? It's some kind of Framus, no idea what model or anything, though. Also, sorry for the sucky picture, just ignore the crap in the background.

Looks like a custom Framus Strato.  Do a Google search for Framus gutiars, then when you get to their site, go to "Vintage" on the nave bar and look at the solid body models.

I bought a Mastery Bridge for my Jazzmaster, but I kind of feel like a sucker for doing so. Honestly, I kind of like how it sounded/felt with the Mustang Bridge/Buzzstop combo better.  :|

I'll probably be putting the aforementioned combo back on next time I change strings. I really need money as it is, so selling the Mastery might be wise.

McNaught actually had to change his headstock shape because PRS threatened to sue him for it being too similar to theirs (and it really was just the PRS headstock, stretched out lengthwise)

A solid black Phoenix model without all the stupid maple binding and abalone bullshit would actually look pretty metal. But if I were interested in dropping 3 grand on a metal axe I'd just get a custom ESP or BC Rich. The all-mahogany les-paul style guitars like the dude from Clutch has are all right, but I'm just not that into his stuff in general.

Thing that is so funny about that stupid picture is McNaughty is in Locust NC. Which imho has less than zero scenic desert vistas like that opening page. Also, I believe that part of Stanly County is still dry (alcohol-wise), so maybe that's what they meant?  :laugh:

Okay guys, my guitar collection has gotten out of hand again and I need to pare it down.

I'm looking to sell off my ESP Eclipse, my PRS Mira maple top, and my black Gibson Firebird Studio.

The ESP has some finish wear (ie, the matte finish is now shiny in a few spots from playing it), the Mira has a couple small dings in the finish, and the Firebird is in mint condition as far as I can tell (AND they don't make them anymore so...value?). Photos forthcoming.

They're all great guitars, they just don't get enough playing time to justify owning them anymore. I'd rather see them go to a QC forumer than some random eBay person, so you guys get first crack. I'm hoping to get $800 for the ESP (it retails for around $1200), $8-900 for the Firebird (retails for about 1200 too but is in mint cond.) and somewhere between $1100-$1300 for the PRS. I am willing to negotiate though! Email me (jephco at mac dot com) if you're interested in any of them. I may also be able to throw in some QC swag if you're interested.

I generally dislike PRS. I do. Except for those gorgeous blue finishes with the back and sides on clear nitro finish.

I'm glad I don't have any money though. I've been playing the shit out of my 335, and I seriously don't want any other guitars.

I even sold the Jazzmaster. That's right. I did. Sue me.

BTW, the flat wounds are awesome. EDIT.
...for to busk with your lovely wife when she is playing an acoustic bass in teh park.

Amusingly the Laguna she just got has a beautiful Bubinga grain (amusing because I was joking about Bubinga). It's not "flamed" but it really nice.


Anyway the flat wounds are a lot quieter and even the thin nato body of the Yamaha I'm playing is a LOT louder than her bass. I end up flatpicking a lot so as not to drown her out with the strumminz.

Also, PSA..drink plenty of water out there, kids...



Jeph, I'll trade you some magic beans for the Firebird.

it'll be the best amp you ever buy.  i really do love that line.  i'm amazed at how much the price of fender tube amps has skyrocketed in the past year though.  makes me wish i had bought a dozen 65 reissues 2 years ago.  haha.  truth.  anyway,  go with the 2x12 though instead of the 4x10, and trust my advice on this.  and i don't say that because i own the 2x12, i say this because i played through the 4x10 version for about 6 months before i purchased a deville of my own.  obv the 2x12 ha.

The 4x10 is soooo nice.  Get a Blues Deville/Deluxe, though.  They're so might brighter and punchier for a little extra cash.

i'm not saying the 4x10 isn't nice... it's really the same amp.. i just always found that 10's couldn't offer things that 12's could, but i could get the sound out of 12's that i could out of 10's if that makes sense.  try them both, see what suits you.  saying this doesn't mean that the 410 deville isn't capable of  throwing out bottom end, in fact you'll probably find that it throws out too much bottom end sometimes, and you'll be keeping a phillips screwdriver close by to retighten all the screws that hold the frame of the amp together, as vibration eventually loosens them.  also i believe that the dimensions of the 4x10 are slightly larger than the 2x12, and being that both of these amps are already pretty heavy and without wheels on them, you'll find yourself carrying these things up stairs to gigs in the most awkward ways, laughing at the handle on the top, as if you could just carry it by your side and have it be a breeze.   

both the hot rod deville and blues deville have the best sparkling clean tones on any amp out there in my opinion, nothing even comes close, i've always just used the clean channel with either a pedal for boost or od, but if i was going to spend the extra cash, and i had my heart set on a 410, i'd be looking for a second hand super reverb..

I actually ordered the Hot Rod Deville 4x10. I think it would suit my playing style better since i tend to augment most of my chords with a lower fifth. Plus, I'm doing more mathy spazzy punk stuff lately. I would like the bottom end to really stand out, but still be able to shriek and wail if it needs to. I'm not going to be shredding, but I need people to hear the chords that I'm playing for what they are. If that makes any sense.

Anyway, I have been researching the things since early February and just now ordered one. I hope that I'm right in my decision. I got a pretty good deal on the thing, too. $565 after shipping. It should be here Monday. I will probably take pictures and try to post them, as long as you guys don't mind my huge boner*.



*I will not literally post pictures of a huge boner.

The Blues Deluxe is no heavier than my 100w Marshall solid-state 1x12, and I lug that thing up and down stairs all the time. And I'm a very skinny dude.

i didn't refer to the deluxe line, which are 1x12 combos as being heavy amps.  we were talking about the hot rod and blues deville line which are 2x12 and 4x10.. which are entirely different amps.

anyway,

congrats glyphic!  that's a pretty sweet price too.  i'm assuming you bought it used?  good tubes in it?

Eh, what the hell sorry about the size






Did the custom on the GAX myself (it's my mod practice guitar) I also have a Homemade Les Paul (yes, homemade, sounds like good crap) and an Ibanez nylon string that isn't pictured. My buddy has a 59 Tele but he stopped letting me play it because I kept pissing myself. Kidding..........maybe.
