Not at all. I certainly wouldn't trade my CV Strat for a MIM Strat, and that binding is fucking sexy.

That pedal is wonky as hell. I want it. It gets that kind of dissonance I love when playing with harmonics and such.

Also, my brother had to see a Dr. Weiner once.

In urology.

I've got me a Martin twelve string, one of the cheaper ones. It's definitely fun to play around with, and some songs will jump out at you on a beautiful sounding 12 string, though at times it feels as if its novelty wears off.

It's never useless, though.

I had a Schecter C-1 Plus for a few years, not a whole lot different than the one you posted. I agree, it plays very well, and sounds sweet, especially for what you'd use it for. The one I owned had a pretty nice black cherry finish - a type of finish that I don't normally like - and really dope pea...

This is such bullshit. I hate Squier. I hate Classic Vibes.


Now I have to decide between the '50s Telecaster and the Custom Telecaster. Damn them.

NADSAT'd be dope, but I'm referring to the soundtrack, which was all vocoder shit.

I've given it some thought, but I always considered it to be fucking with something that's perfectly mediocre, and with my (lack of) experience I could just end up regretting touching the thing in the first place. You've got a good point, though. I'll look into it more before shelling out for anothe...

Groovy. I'll consider it further, I've been looking for something not so muddy as the EVJ. Maybe it'll sound dope hooked up to my cab, too.

Been thinking of buying one of these, but I already have a 5-Watt tube amp in the form of an EVJ half stack. Think it's worth it?

Wow, guy's a total prick. Nice grammar, too. I've only ordered one pickguard ever. It was for my classic player Jaguar from Terrapin. Dude assured me that he could make a pickguard that would fit the CP, but it didn't. After explaining more, providing a template and trying again, he still got it wro...

My Behringer DR100 Reverb is pretty dope. It feels somewhat cheap and fragile, but it sounds alright and has held up well so far. It's especially good, seeing as how I only spent $20 on it and it was packaged with a Behringer Tube Overdrive, which also isn't bad for the price. And FUCK are those LED...

Love that CP Jag with the tort pickguard. I had a CIJ Jazzmaster in that color combo. CAR+tort ftw. Hell yaeh. CAR isn't my favorite, but I dig that color combo more than the mint guard it came with. I like low-key, non-flashy guitars, and the tort just brings down what used to be ketchupy to just ...
