Re: NGD: You'll Never Guess

I might go to 9s, just for that reason --- if it's going to be different, it may as well be way different.

Unrelated / Slightly Related: All the clips I have recorded so far are super sloppy because I am not used to the slightly shorter scale - my fingers come down in the wrong spot and I lose my orientation an get all confused :laughing:

I feel the same way, but in reverse. I tried out a tele at the store and couldn't believe how 'wrong' it felt, and how wrong it sounded.

Haha. I totally hear you on that one. Out of my two main guitars, one is 24" and one is 25.5" and I play both of them every day. The first ten or so minutes of playing one after putting the other one down is always ****ing terrible.

Am I imagining things if I think 9s on a Gibson scale feel like 10s on a Fender scale? A friend of mine tried to tell me it should be the other way around.

If im not mistaken, I remember pictures of him as a newborn.

Seems like his dad is teaching him about the good things in life!

I agree - shorter scale should have higher gauge strings to feel like a longer scale instrument --- BUT, my goal is not for them to feel similar.

His favorite guitar is my Guild acoustic, probably because it makes the most noise when he bangs on it :laughing: but he likes this one second most, because it is the brightest and shiniest.

I'm hoping that this will become his favorite.

Re: NGD: You'll Never Guess

Sold it today - funny to read back through when I first got it and the honeymoon.

It was a good guitar - very good. I have plenty of guitars though, and I'm cleaning house for fun.

Sold it to a 19 year old with a mustache named Lester.

Lester rolled up in a beat Subaru Legacy that was done up like EVH's red-white-black guitar :laughing:

Party on, Lester!

Re: NGD: You'll Never Guess

Kinda sad to hear.. Oh well, time to move on. I have to sell some dear friends too and its ripping me up. Not getting the love they deserve and I need the funds, but just nice to have them when I want...

Re: NGD: You'll Never Guess

Update: he's deliberately calling it a model that it isn't and has it up for sale for $100 more than I sold it to him for.

It's from 5 years ago, before there was a "Pro" model, and it's a factory second.

Note the phone number:

Re: NGD: You'll Never Guess

Maybe he just means its totally pro, dude.

Further evidence that most people actively avoid doing the right thing as a rule.
