I love this guitar! Such a great color.

wait, you told him before you bought it?

Tim S - I had a blues jr, and I think that is a very good and capable tube amp for the price. It was a decent amp for me for carrying to jam sessions. It could fit in a mix with 2nd guitar player, bass and drummer. But it lacked low end. That was okay for a mix but I ended up selling it and...

didn't EVH blame his cancer on always having a guitar pick in his mouth? More likely from smoking I would think though.

Yes! I was going to say "doesn't Santa play a Santana?"

it all sounds good to me. It could impact your resale value if you do any of it especially drilling the holes for coil split but it would be pretty awesome.

beside this looper advice, I'd say maybe take a break from the lessons you are doing and explore some different stuff on youtube. Maybe even buy a course if you find and instructor or material that you like and practice that as well as the stuff you've learned from your current lessons...

Also agree on this. besides hearing yourself back, you can also set up simple (keep them simple) backing tracks and practice scales / improvising over chords. Can be tons of fun.

I hear people talk about Justin guitar as a good source but I have not personally looked at his stuff. i was under the impression his stuff we real basic but i'm sure at some point he gets into pentatonic scales??? Also, I just saw and email last week that Fender (their lessons service) did a...

yeah that's true. That's a bold move. I was thinking the bidder is more likely the actual seller trying to generate some interest.?? I really can't imagine someone with $2k to spend on a guitar doesn't know what they are looking for.

I doubt they will sell that. I mean who will pay $2k without doing some homework first. Now if it was listed for $500 someone might jump on it quick trying to get the deal before someone else does. I'd think that would work better at least.

wow that sounds great!

yeah it kind of sounded like he was talking about SG's but I took that as he thinks it applies to all guitars. I would think if a lighter SG vibrates more unplugged than a lighter anything would. But before I heard him say this, I never gave weight a second thought in relation to tone. I did...

haha. ...Well they guessed how many I want to own. I got 15 or more. I own three :(

yep - I like all of your recordings. Well done once again!

Derek Trucks says the opposite. He says light guitars sound better - (somewhere around 1:40)

yeah I don't weigh my guitars but 8 is about the max i'll consider if i'm looking to buy a new guitar and weights are actually advertised. Or I should say 9.0 or less.

without reading everyone elses replies, I primarily worry about humidity. Humidity is obviously a bigger factor on thin solid wood acoustic guitars but it still impacts both hollow body and solid body electrics. The primary issues i've had with solid bodies is with the neck. Truss rod...

I bought a Jimmy Vaughan Signature Strat from Musicians Friend back in maybe 09 for $450 if I remember correctly. (it might have been $400) It was on sale on week as part of their "Fender Friday" deals. While I know who Jimmy Vaughn is and knew some of his stuff, I didn't really listen to...

Oh, I forgot about that John Mayer super eagle. I might have to go with that one??
