It seems that everyone loves to kick stockers to the curb almost without thinking, but there are certain ones I love and feel no need to replace. I am not counting actives (because let's be honest, they tend to have "their" sound regardless of the guitar they are in) or branded Duncans or...

.....simply from being in love with sound. I'll go first: Boss OC-3 Super Octave: I plug my guitar into the bass input use Drive mode for the biggest, deepest, wooliest (or is that none more wooly?), creamiest tone imaginable through the Lead channel of my Boogie on lowish gain. Within a few...

Hello all. I am a longtime guitarist, and have always played bass in my studio for recordings. I've used a multi-purpose Carvin AG100D (1x12, 100 watts) + a 1x12 extension cab for years, which is surprisingly good for what it is. However, the combo's speaker is beginning to get a little tired...

Got a friend to help complete and setup this partscaster, which I call Project Viking. I have always loved this color combo and was initially looking at a Jeff Beck Strat, although the tree trunk neck is too much for my taste. So the idea of a the same combo in an Yngwie Strat popped into my...

I can't call it a true build since I'm just assembling parts, so I'll call it a quest since I had to work hard to decide on the right parts to buy. I've had an Yngwie J. Malmsteen Strat on my backburner for years, but finally played one this year, and knew the time was here to get my own...

USA model with Koa body, birdseye maple neck, and pau ferro fretboard. Picked her up with lots of corrosion to the original Jackson Floyd and other hardware (previous owner must have lived in a saltwater cave! :eek5: ), so after eventually giving up on finding the separate components, I...

I picked up a very rare USA San Dimas in need of some TLC. I could tell the body/neck/fretboard were in great shape, so considering that I have lusted for one of these since 1995, I excused the partially corroded hardware including the top 3 Floyd saddles and trem bar (corrosion wasn't really...

Found a new old stock ESP with the much coveted script logo (as opposed to the loathsome new block logo) and had to jump on it. It's a bit thinner and quite a bit lighter than some LPs, but the beefy tone and resonance is still there. I know there is a full thickness body version available...

Thinning the herd and this one is redundant for me. Only a couple hours of playing in my home studio, perfect condition. Was bought new several years ago, in original box, even has original blank warranty card. $75 NET via PayPal shipped standard UPS in US only.

I've been on a Charvel buying frenzy lately. The newest is a 475 Deluxe Exotic. I've had my metallic black 475 Deluxe for 20 years this year ( :bigeyes: ) and have the stock J50BC/J200/J200 system with JE1200 midboost. I also have a Charvel 650 Custom with EMGs, so I feel I've got the active...
