 i'm guessing it's that, which is surprisingly not hideous (relative to the general Schecter trash) bravo Schecter, you only had to make a carbon copy of an iconic guitar to make something almost worth buying

so I made it like 18 pages in until I got completely sick of reading Faustus' poo poo, so this has probably already been posted by now but whatever: Ed Roman's Sexy Guitar Page edit: either my eyesight is getting worse, or they made the pictures smaller so you can't see how painfully bored/uncomfortable the models/escorts all look while holding hideous neon green flame maple offbrand Mockingbirds Ed Roman's site is a pretty amazing k-hole of weird rants and tacky guitar bullshit Radio Help fucked around with this message at 11:15 on Feb 5, 2014 |

Fair Hallion posted:I hope you get further than this guy Holy poo poo. That's funny as gently caress. I may have been a bit rash with announcing the making of that guitar, it's been pissing down solid since last night, my workshop is pretty much floating in a sea of mud and the electric keeps cutting in and out, so it looks like water is getting in somewhere. Still, lets see what I can manage....

They've removed a few rants too, I'm 100% sure that I saw at least one "THANKS OBUMMER YOU ARE KILLING AMERICA YOU SOCIALIST" rant and I can't find them now. I can't find my 'favourite' sad model picture anymore either, it's an escort (I'm fairly sure the accompnying text said she was called Krystal or something) dressed like an extra from Mad-Max holding this stupid guitar and she's got this "I'm going to have to suck this sweaty fat land-ham-whale off later, aren't I?" look on her face. Poor girl.

mclast posted:you were searching ebay for 'guitar fuzz' I deny nothing! Holy hell is that guitar stupid. I kind of miss it, even though it seemed to shed more hair than my dog. Absalom Baird posted:Hey anyone know of any good, inexpensive electric 12 strings? I wanna get my jangle on Like mclast said, 12 string Dano's are pretty cheap and sound great, you see vintage ones pretty cheap too, however I'd stay away from them unless you want to get your hands dirty as the bridges have horrible intonation and the tuners are always broken. Not sure if you are in the US or not, but this seems pretty well priced for something to play around on; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-335-12-string-electric-guitar-natural-quilted-maple-finish-/370984849755?pt=Guitar&hash=item56606b915b Fun fact about Gibson semi-acoustics, last time I checked they are all made of plywood ("maple laminate"), even the super expensive ones.

Agree. I like Dano for making great cheapo guitars, that sound more interesting than ok intermediate price guitars. I'm also experienced at doing my own setups. If you can, play a few before you spend money on one Rob Ford posted:What's in those bottles on top of your amp? at least a few of those are polishes/fretboard conditioners. the one with the 65 on it is a Dunlop brand

Rob Ford posted:What's in those bottles on top of your amp? Tone. Tone bottles. All the tones. All of them. Faustus, honestly that's a pretty depressing guitar collection, why do you need six pointy super-strats? I know professional musicians that have a smaller guitar collection than this. Thing is, you know that you'll get poo poo on for posting that in here, so why do it? Are you that desperate for attention? It's honestly kind of sad  .On a lighter note; "the most bad-rear end thing I'ever seen"

Given the source I assumed that, I'm just curious what kind of bullshit snake-oil guitar geeks buy. And why do Bigsby's suck? I kinda want a Gretsch. Wikipedia says it's non adjustable so I'm guessing intonation is a bitch, but any other problems?

Rob Ford posted:And why do Bigsby's suck? I kinda want a Gretsch. Wikipedia says it's non adjustable so I'm guessing intonation is a bitch, but any other problems? With a few vibrato bars there's a chance that if you move the bar down too far you'll gently caress up the tuning or cause the strings to slip off the saddles or nut. But if you just use the bar for its intended purpose, adding a little vibrato "waver" effect, then you should be fine. The only vibrato bars you should have problems with are cheap Floyd Rose knock-offs. I once had a really cheap and lovely Mexican-made Fender copy that had a fake Floyd Rose. Every time I tried to tune it the strings would actually pull the whole thing forward off the body. Then I had to wait for it to stretch and settle before tuning it again. Also if you moved it too far the strings would actually lift off the nut.
