    NGD: Japanese Vintage...

    Here's a gem I picked up at the pawn shop with some Covid-19 money. It is an El Degas Studio guitar made in Japan. These guitars were made from 1979 to the early 1980's. The first ones were made in Japan and the later ones made in Korea. They were exclusive to the Canadian market so availability...

    Re: Planet Waves Auto Trim tuners I can testify that the auto-trims are the next best thing invented since sliced bread. I currently have them on one of my Squier guitar projects.:) ;>)/

    Post Your Holy Grail - from 10 or 20 years ago

    Re: Post Your Holy Grail - from 10 or 20 years ago I don't know about 10 or 20 years ago but this year will be 30 years since I purchased my 1989 Yamaha RGX Custom guitar.

    Which Squier?

    Here's a very informative video on what Squier guitar would a Fender master builder buy. Ron Thorn of Fender Custom Shop is featured here and he was also responsible for the Fender Game Of Thrones guitars. He goes over 3 models of Squiers that he picks and puts them through the test. ;>)/

    Jackson used to be awesome.

    Re: Jackson used to be awesome. I love my Jackson King V I bought a few years ago at a pawnshop. This guitar is pretty amazing for the price. It does need new pick up rings since the original is somewhat brittle plastic & breaking from picking. I'll replace them with black chrome metal pup...

    Thoughts & Opinions...

    I have a 1996 MIM Fender Stratocaster in Candy Apple Red and rosewood fret-board that I'm scalloping. This fine guitar is getting a Seymour Duncan upgrade. I'm putting in a SD Hot Stack For Strat in the bridge position. I want to hook it up to a DPDT on/on switch for series/parallel operation...
