Re: Let's see your rare guitars! 1958 Gretsch Belonged to my wife's grandfather, passed down to me.

Well, the opportunity came and I just couldn't say no. I thought I would never trade my Carvin CS-4... but when someone offered me a PRS Mira MT in trade for it, it was really hard to say no. The deal went pretty heavy in my favor, mostly because the PRS hadn't been taken care of at all. It...

Well, this guitar was recently given to me by my wife's grandmother. It belonged to her husband and was his #1 guitar since the 60's. I am trying to ID and determine estimated value of the guitar because I would like to pay her for it (frankly speaking, she could use the money). So the first...

So I was talking with Laz recently about amps and we were talking about how the relationship between amp wattage and rated wattage on the speaker may not be as important as I thought. I have a new BlackStar HT-20 studio, and I want to swap the speaker (and tubes for higher quality later). I...

Alright so I bought a new BlackStar HT-20 and I although the amp sounds significantly better then my stock Hot Rod Deluxe I immediately want to swap out the Celestion Rocket 50 for a better speaker. Preferably a WGS Green Beret as it is a Vintage 30 type speaker that is ACTUALLY affordable right...

Okay so here's the deal. A friend just bought a Heritage H150... and, HOLY CRAP this guitar is a monster. I have heard people talk about Heritage before but this is the first one I have ever seen or held in person. I was blown away by how well the guitar played, looked and sounded. It set a new...

So I ordered a new amp, a Bogner Alchemist, and true to the reviews of quality issues for the amp. It showed up at my door and the "crunch" setting on the amp flat out does not work. Frankly said, I'm pissed and disheartened... Now musicians friend has been great, they are willing replace or...

Well after sitting in it's soft case in the closet for about 3 weeks while I was doing some recording with my other guitars, I brought my baby back out to play her. I immediately noticed a SIGNIFICANT change in the sustain of the guitar, especially on the D and G strings, the notes died VERY...

As seen in pictures I have a 59-n nickel covered and a Distortion Trembucker bridge in black. Both in good condition. They are both 4 conductor and have sufficient lead to reach the pots in my LP with some slack. $45 (shipped to conus, oconus guys pay shipping) a piece to the first PM's...

Well, I said I would give a thorough review of this guitar and I am keeping true to my word. About a month ago I decided I would take a leap and grab an Agile AL-3100 from RondoMusic.com. This is what I have concluded about the instrument so far, specifically I am measuring this guitar against...

This is what showed up on my front doorstep this afternoon... I haven't had a chance to really play it yet but initial inspection is fairly impressive. I wanted to post pics because, well it's gorgeous and there is no denying it. I plan on doing an in-depth review on this guitar in the next few...

Recently I had purchased an Ibanez RG Premium, it had a Production Floor Custom '59 in the bridge when I got it (which I had no clue what a prod floor custom was at the time). I pulled in out of that guitar and replaced it with the stock dimarzio's for the sound I was looking for in that guitar...

Well I was hunting for an RG some of you may have seen the threads, I ended up getting an insane deal buying this RG920 Premium. I will say this, I love everything about this guitar.... except the lack of sustain. The neck feels amazing, the tone is great, it plays incredible but it just does...

Buddy of mine just gave me a pickup he isn't using.... it's a '59... however I am not familiar with the "Production Floor Custom" box it came in, is this different than a standard SH-1n? Just wondering....

I am posting this guitar for a friend of mine, this is his guitar not mine, but I will vouch for the instrument as I have played it and see the guitar on a regular basis and it is a good guitar in great condition, and it is beautiful. This is a 2008 B.C. Rich Mockingbird Special X, it is...
