While visiting a friend we stopped by an old friend of his. This dude played in a band with the same guys for 40 years. In his barn he has quite a setup, small stage, drum set, monitors, equipment everywhere. He had an Ibanez on a stand that must have been sitting there for quite sometime as...

Re: A Telecaster is the ONLY electric guitar you need This can be true but do you know a carpenter that only has one hammer?

Re: New guitar Silvertone by Samick Juiptar reissue, I friggin’ love my Samick Avion!

Re: White Squier HH HT It is not a through body and the holes in the bridge are very precise. From what I can gather there just weren’t many of these made. It was made in Indonesia, 2010.

My BIL passed away recently and left me this guitar- It was in pretty sad shape but still had the protective film on the pickups and pick guard After a cleaning, some new strings and a set up it plays and looks very nice. I haven’t seen very many of these and I know it’s not going to bring...

Re: Peavey T-27 help I just realized this guitar is the same color as my car, Redfire.

Re: Peavey T-27 help It cleaned up rather nice I might add.

I recently acquired this Peavey T-27 from a friend and when I opened it up I found this pink pick. You can see it in the pic with the pick guard turned over. It has a name on it, Cathryn Craig and I thought it was strange that someone would leave a pick with their name on it in a guitar. Is this...

Re: NGD Squier Strat He is one of my Indonesian Squiers that I found for $50. It still had the plastic on the pickguard and appeared to have never been played. Not a scratch or blemish anywhere.

As everyone should know I am new to the electric guitar so with that being said... has anyone put these pickups in a Squier? Likes? Dislikes? Is there something I should watch out for? I’m going to do the swap myself so any info will be greatly appreciated. It will be my first pup swap.

Yay or nay?

After the fret end dressing this guitar plays really nice. The packaging was top notch and it arrived unscathed. The action was nice and the intonation was reasonably close. Over all a great guitar for a Squier Bullet, $129.99 delivered.

I’m going to be installing a loaded pickguard in one of my Strats in a few weeks when I get home. It will be my first attempt (successfully I hope) what kind of solder do I need to use?

The have this piece of purple cypress that a friend gave me and I was thinking, would it make a good guitar body? It came off a big log that was at least 75 years old that he got out of a river several years ago and this small piece has been in a barn for at least 4-5 years. I am not a wood...

Re: Post Your Acoustic Guitars... I have several acoustic guitars this is by far the most unique and unusual one. Ovation Snake. Voyage-air fold up travel guitar that is kind of unique also.
