http://www.firstact.com/ Never heard of first act guitars but the built in preamp in the VW so you can play through the car stereo is pretty cool. Even though I don't know when you'd ever use that.

Eastwood is releasing an 18 watt handwired Airline combo amp. Looks cool, wonder how it will sound. Check it! http://myrareguitars.com/airline18wattcombo1.html

I'm in love. It's beautiful. The burst is less red than the pics. It was very well setup right out of the case. Super low and buttery smooth action. Nut is cut well too. The fat 50's neck fits my big mitts perfectly. Most comfortable guitar I've played yet. The tone is incredible. The...

I just got off the phone with Saul at Centre City Music and this is shipping out to me today: 06 VOS R8 in Iced Tea. Oh man I can't wait. Should be here Tuesday.

My buddy ended up buying one of these for a couple hundred bucks. Very cool looking steel. The more he's been playing it though the less he likes the sound. He tells me the high e string is just too bright. Overwhelmingly so. He's lowered the pup as far as it can go. It appears to me to be...

Anyone know of any good sites with vintage silvertone amplifier info? Slim pickings indeed. I've started collecting as much stuff (info,media,schematics) on silvertone amps as I can find out there. http://cookies.berkeley.edu/silvertone/ I potentially am going to start building a...

It plays great. The neck feels really good. The action is good. Although the intonation is a bit off on the b and g strings. I'll set that later today. As far as the sound, it's ok. I'm going to replace the pups most likely. Either a Jazz neck JB bridge combo or put in some humbucker sized...

So I got a MIM Strat for Christmas. I noticed something weird recently. If I strum the strings, then mute them with my pickhand and release quickly I get a weird bell like harmonic coming from the G string. I tried changing strings, and lowering the pups, but I'm not quite sure what would...

Any recommendations for good techs in the bay area?
