Kinda stoked. Should show up at GC on Wednesday. I’m trying to find the right strap for a stone blue SS. Anyone have any ideas?

The cleans are very, very, nice. Maybe a tad tilted toward the bass but the tone stack is very useful. I got it super cheap and it need some TLC: The overdrive pot is broke and it needs new knobs. The cab has some chips straight through the tolex. But I love a project. I’ll fix the pot and put...

So I posted a photo of a cab I built a couple of years ago in a thread here. Thing is I have played a couple of amps through it, a homemade 5 watt from the Bud kit and a DV-Mark micro CMT. No matter which amp I used playing I was bugged by how A chords sounded somewhat boomy. I thought it was...

This was sparked by my feeling that my low E string was too prominent when playing four note jazz chords. On my other guitars I set the pole piece by neck radius. But this person’s argument is pretty convincing. Note that I am a physicist who understands quite well Faraday’s law and the theory...

I almost always play clean, I built a 5 watt single ended tube amp to run with a speaker enclosure I built, but it’s not giving me the sound I want. My teacher/friend and many other jazz players seem to be using solid state amps for their near infinite clean headroom. My teacher frequently uses...

It’s occasional and annoying. The amp in question is a Gibson RV Super.

Looking for opinions. I’m thinking of picking one of these up for my daughter to play bass through. Most of what I’ve read online indicates it makes for a decent bass cab. Opinions of the scorpions are pretty positive.

I have been off and on looking at SE EGs. I like the idea of stop tails. When Dave’s gets them they’re priced at less than $400. There are currently a couple on Craigslist that I could look at and potentially buy. The only one priced reasonably has the stupid Budweiser paint job. I’d like not...

Dave’s got in a blue, hard tail SE EG. of course they priced it really fairly and it sold in the twelve hours I hadn’t looked at the new arrivals. My wife woulda killed me anyway.

I started in on a project to put in concentric pots for individual tone and volume for each pickup, but was stymied by the wire routing. The guitar wasn’t nearly as hollow as I thought it was. It’s not clear that one can work things through the f holes.

I finally built my kit amp to use with my diy cab. I will say that the bud kit is dead easy to build and is probably a decent circuit. However I am having a super weird problem. The amp mostly sounds fine. But open sting G and first fret G# clunk almost like a dead fret. This doesn't occur with...

I have been thinking about getting an acoustic for about a month. I have played a few of the kind of well though of budget thin lines, the Ibanez Talman and the Yamaha APX600, they were ok nothing to write home about from a playabilty standpoint. I also played an 2015 Angleus SE30, which I liked...

I brought it home from Green Bay Saturday. Not the lightest item. But man the cleans on this thing are really liquid. The dirty channel sounds good too, but I bought it for the cleans. It’s really too much amp for me I can’t turn the master past about 1 and a half. But it sound just like I want...

In a bad way. I missed one on eBay last night. The freaking action ended at 1:30AM, and I failed to wake up in time. My monoprice stage right is fine. I’ve tweaked the crap out of it. The cleans sound fine to me, even sweet. I played through the 10” Trace Elliot at guitar center about 8 months...

It says it’s an SE 22, but most of the SE 22s I’ve seen have trems. I would love a semi hollow with a stoptail and a wide thin neck. But I am pretty confused. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F254513202489

I have been going back and forth between my SE 24 and my Ibanez hollow body (AM-83) I love the Ibanez, but the neck on the PRS makes playing so much easier for me. So the question in the title of the post. I’ll likely not be getting another guitar for a while as the 35th anniversary SE has been...

I really want one as it checks all the boxes for me. It’s quite a bit for me to spend on an axe and I am trying to scrape the money together. I might even trade in my Mustang on it.

It’s the first core model that I felt was as playable as my SE. just a beautiful axe. Satin finished rosewood neck, 10 top in root beer. Sadly I have neither the money nor the skills for such a guitar. Played much better than the other customs I’ve played. The neck profile seemed to be very...

I have a wonderful SE custom 24 with the spaulted maple top. I just bought some mahogany back plates, but they are unfinished. Can anyone give me some advice on how to get the finish close?

Anyone have any experience with these? I’d love to have matched grain back plates on my SE custom. I’d have to match the stain and gloss I guess.
