There's 2 Guild acoustics on the used market for similar prices, both made in 1985. One is an all-mahogany D-17 with a gloss finish (looks near-mint) and the other is a Spruce-top D-25 with a pickup and B-Band preamp (definitely has been gigged). Both come with their original cases.
FWIW I...
Feedback on the recording is why I'm posting this here.
This song was written by a Newfoundlander named Al Pittman about his coastal fishing community which was resettled further inland.
The original recording is acapella. A friend of mine who lives on the rock asked me to cover it to give...
I bought a used Squier Classic Vibe '70s Tele Thinline. It's from 2020. The body is maple as is the neck but it's still fairly light, and looks similar enough to Ash. I haven't put it on a scale but compared to my 8 lb Baja it feels like it's about 6 lbs.
I've never played a Tele with real...
Lots of great advice already.
If you want a Les Paul to discover why it's inspired generations of guitarists, I'd suggest opting for a Historic.
I have an R9 and it's hands down the best Les Paul I've ever played. It's also 8 lbs 3 oz with no weight relief.
If you can't afford a Historic, then...
I updated my board based on the advice received in this thread.
Tuner at the start of the chain instead of the end.
Compressor before pickup booster (RIP resonance switch I never used)
Phaser after Chorus
I agree it's a very clever and useful switch if you want to bring one (kind of) guitar to a gig. That said I just haven't explored it much myself, having a Tele and a LP . If I only had a Strat or a LP I'd probably use it lots.
I updated the board after considering Ace's advice. I might have to...
Hence why it will likely be an amp I crank in my house and record, not one I take to gigs. The Classic 30 with a neodymium Celestion UK Dog 12" speaker will be the main gigging amp.
So I had the shop agree to $600 USD cash out the door, but then for some weird reason I couldn't withdraw my money from any ATM so I ended up taking it for $675 out the door, on the credit card. Thank you to everyone who's been talking down these amps as it enabled me to get one for a bargain! I...
