What's up? Bought a used Twin Tube Classic, and I've got two questions: One, when you change 'channels' on it (from rhythm to lead and vice versa) you can hear your foot touching the switch amplified pretty well. Sounds basically like microphonic feedback. If you use your hand and wiggle the...

Before I commence with photographs, I want to first say that this guitar is inspirationally fantastic. The sound that emits from this is like nothing I've yet heard. I'm not one to brag about how my guitars sound. They sound like guitars. I'd rather play, look at, fix, buy, sell, smell and...

eBay link I'm too excited to type - but I'll keep this as short as possible. I've been watching this guitar for two weeks on eBay. Basically it's a 1938 Gretsch Synchromatic Prototype, that Gretsch built just before the Synchromatic line came out (in 1939) to test various features. This was...

http://www.dustystrings.com/shop/royrogersguitar.shtml :wow: I do like things about it though. We'll see if I can scrape enough for an offer.

Note, the prices are shipped, but not paypal. I prefer to get paid with paypal, but I need money. So split the fees with me? Otherwise check will be fine! First, my G5222: This is basically a better version of the Fender Champion 600. The wiring is the exact same, but the cabinet is made with...

To make everyone happy, I won't charge more than what everybody thought was fair. I *could* ask market price, but I won't. The pickup is in pristine shape, long leads and everything. It was in the original run, not ordered from the CS recently. $110.50 Priority shipped and Paypal'ed. This way...

And that's about all I have to say about that.

I do! Love them. Absolutely in love with them. A dude sent me a few for free (which was super nice of him) and I finally got one on my Duo Jet. I put it on the back because the front wouldn't look right with it. They look great on Butterscotch Teles or Orange Gretsches. But they wouldn't look...

Just want to make sure I don't break any rules. I wasn't around for the initial batch obviously, and what I have is from the initial batch. I'm also not sure I want to sell it, but I might need money soon. I'm fairly sure I remember there being a cap on how much you can sell it for, so I want...

Installed my brand new used Brobucker (thank you very much slightly_rude!) tonight. Plugged it into my brand new used TS9 (thank you Eric Meyer!). Plugged that into my Falcon, cranked of course, and just got the most beautiful distorted sounds I've *ever* personally played. I'm not saying this...

Well i'm on the 405 in traffic. Just dropped the Green Guitar off at Roman Rist's shop. Gonna come back with a bound ebony board, massive frets, and a crazy new truss rod system. That's not to mention how super nice he was. Great guy, I could listen to him talk for a while. Just cool, and it's...

I have an opportunity to sell my 1954 Gretsch amp, to buy this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=300207149835&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=020 It's a 1957 Gibson GA-40. One in slightly better cosmetic condition sold for $1,200 plus shipping 2 weeks ago. Plus, the one in...

Well I need to raise $400 in the next 7 days to fix the neck on my Green Buddy. So you guys need to buy my stuff! :) I really don't want to sell any of this. But I need money. So here goes, in order of most willing to sell to least willing to sell. Ah, and I accept Paypal or any other form of...

What's up guys? Long time no see. Sorry I've been a ghost last 2 weeks, was out of state and then moving. Got to leave in 5 minutes to move the last stuff out of the old apartment, and then I'm back 100%. Wanted to throw this topic up before I leave though. So for the three of you that care...

Here are the entrants. I will be buying one, so don't try to talk me out of it. Just rank them in order of preference. By the way, this is the new Gretsch Americana series, that was produced in 2007. The run is over now, and there aren't many of them floating around. Made with real wood! On...
