Willy

Can’t wait to slap this puppy in! Mighty Mite told me they found this in the parts bin (this was a couple of weeks ago). Love my Comanche but hoping this will take it to the next level

New pickguard for Camanche

I was lucky enough to snag this Comanche but im not sold on the white on white... what do you think would look cool on an alpine body?? My first thought is a retro Tortoiseshell. Also, is pickguard heaven the way to go? never bought a pickguard before.

Cheers!

Anyone recognize this signature?

Found this lovely painting at the thrift store. Appears to be original! Anyone know that artist.

Really makes me ponder all the amazing artists out there that may never have been recognized. This one to me is glorious!

Does anyone know where I could find one of these?

I recently acquired a Comanche but the bridge pickup feels noticeably thinner...

any thoughts!?

Project Hail Mary sucks ass

This movie has to be one of the dumbest movies i've ever seen in my life. Rocky is obviously the more advanced species, and yet is "learning" from Grace... how does that make sense?! If you think Rocky looks like a rotisserie chicken, i like i did, nothing about what happens to him (it?) sparks any kind of empathy, it's just cringe!

Let's try and list all the things that happened in this movie that didn't matter or didn't make sense. Who bandaged up Grace after he hit his head and passed out? Rocky!? SERIOUSLY?! Who was the love interest? that lady that totally betrayed him? how did he remember being in love but nothing else? Why did rocky mimic everything grace did at the beginning, and then didn't after that!? what was the point of that!?

The ending... again, Grace was not the intellectual superior to rocky, and yet he's teaching a bunch of poorly behaved school aged rocks physics. That would be like a human teaching a whale how to hold it's breath.

Bezos bought up MGM, and i feel like this was an experiment to see what kind of slop they can feed the public and how many people just gobble it up. my god... what a horrible movie.

Gosling can act tho.

Legacy vs S-500

I have an ASAT which I love, and i've been ive entered my strat era (tell me your 40 without telling me your 40). The legacy was my go-to, but then i started looking into the s-500 now i dont know up from down. I play post-hardcore and jangly ATDI stuff. i hear the s-500 is a bit hotter? is there feeling difference between the two? pictures make them look so similar. what do you all think about the two!?

Thoughts on the F-100 (series I / II)

Hey everyone!

I was thinking about picking up a Series 1 because i love G&L and they seem rad.

Lot of gizmos on this guitar! How do those pickups sound?

Thanks in advance!

Choosing a Legacy

Hey all,

I have an ASAT classic and i've always thought it was the greatest guitar. Been thinking about a strat lately and i want to buy a Legacy.

In my hood im seeing a few on market place, one is a early 90s three bolt, the other is a 2013 legacy with the alnico pickups. I love Alnico Vs so i lean that way, but im sure the duncans in the early Legacys are sick too...

What the consensus out there... should are the early 90s Legacy's preferred in anyway?

Thanks in advance.

*update adding some photos for you knowledgeable people. im getting swayed by the three bolt (probably because i already i have a 4 on my ASAT circa 2008). photos go 90s 1&2. and then 2013 1&2

EQD Half life quality

Bit worried about this - just arrived and the mag switch is isn’t reliably turning on/off. Unlike any of my other EQDs. May actually have to ask for a refund!

Martin 000-15M StreetMaster - Question

Hi all. I don't remember how long ago (before covid for sure) i stepped into a guitar store and played a 000-15M StreetMaster - i'll never forget it because it really did feel like the best acoustic guitar i've ever played.

Flash forward to this year where im in a music shop and ask if they have the streetmaster, which they did, but when i played it, it didn't resonate with me at all (pun intended?).

Does anyone have any insight into whether or not this product has dropped in quality? where these things better produced prior to 2020? Any insight is useful thank you!
