NGD -- Grote LPS-001 in purple

[ehdwuld]

What knobs

Not fond of the top hat knobs
Black with chrome inserts doesn't match the hardware are all

 

[ehdwuld]

I am fond of the gold/black and the solid black

The pearl does kinda match the inlays

 

[ehdwuld]

Ok so no opinions? Sweet
oh well

 

[jeremy]

the pic in post 21 is just a black box for me

 

[PS412]

Black box for me as well but I pretty much have a no gold policy for guitars so I say go with the other one.

 

[Seashore]

Knurled chrome knobs might be cool with everything else on there. Flat or dome top, I could see either.

 

[Mincer]

I will have to own a purple guitar this year. That one looks cool!

 

[ehdwuld]

Try this one

 

[ehdwuld]

I got a box of four sets of knobs
which one do you think look better

 

[Seashore]

Try this one

Oh, this one's gold. For some reason I thought Trevor's pic was your guitar.

The gold knobs match best, black works if you want them more understated.

 

[ehdwuld]

thanks

 

[PS412]

Yep, gold if you keep the gold hardware. Black if not.

 

[ehdwuld]

So i am getting an almost chorus effect from the pickups
with the Zombie it sounds kinda like a reverb
which is cool and all because the Zombie doesnt have reverb

on the new Mooer Pedal though its a different story
it does have reverb and they extra is unwanted

do you think that may be "horn" sounds that was mentioned earlier?
maybe potting or something

the pickups sound fine other than that

kind of an overtone, weird


EDIT

Come to think of it
it may be the bridge

or something else making the overtones

 

[PS412]

How is the Grote situation?
Playing good looking good?

 

[ehdwuld]

The overtones are an artifact of the semihollow

Or it may be the OEM strings

It sounds like reverb on an amp with no reverb
Or maybe a slight chorus

It looks amazing to me
Plays incredible

The HPL fretboard is slick as glass
between that and the stainless frets
I should never have a sprout problem

Locking tuners might help

The only downside
The body is so light, the neck seems a bit heavy


Loving it

 

[PS412]

Glad to hear it.
Maybe I need another one. Hmmmmm?

 

[ehdwuld]

They have a less expensive version with chrome hardware and a roller bridge

It's just not as pretty as the flamed ones

It's hard to call any of these expensive

For what they are they are just awesome guitars

This is my only Grote
Some one here yers ago got a tele shaped full hollow
I thought that was the most interesting thing I had ever seen
Cont remember who it was........

I would add a black winter and a Killswitch.
Gold chrome dome knobs.
