No. They were 22.75” scale Squiers with hard tail strat bridges and hambakers.

These are 24” scale Fenders with like proper Jazzmastery bridges and pickups.

Still might not stay in tune I suppose but I’d imagine they’d probably be fine.

Yeah, I'd seen that. I've been thinking of picking up a Poly D for a while now. They used to be available (new) for a shade over £450 but are currently £650+. Would be good if these price cuts bring them back down under £500. I think the really big cuts are on the modular synths (System 55 / 35 / 15).

Their take on the Oberheim DMX:

Roland SH-5 clone. They first mentioned this a couple of years back but it's apparently nearing production:

I'd be quite up for an 8 voice Juno. 5 octaves would be preferable to 4 though.

I hope Behringer actually start getting some of these synths in the shops. They seem to have announced so much cool stuff but not a lot of it seems to have filtered through to an actual release yet.

I know I have a Guvnor knocking around somewhere. Should probably find it... I think I sort of dismissed it when I was about 16, but understand they're well thought of now? I suppose the old ones will go up in price now too..... There's a few Guv'nors on reverb for about £300 ish. And one for £899 ...

Seem to recall these leaking at some point last year but then it all going quiet?

Anyway, Marshall are reissuing the Guv'nor, Blues Breaker, Shred Master and Drive Master: LANK

Do you use the GK pickup? If so, what do you have it connected to?

Oops! Yes, I did. Have corrected my post.

I've still got all but one of the guitars I've ever owned (so it's a good job I've never owned as many as Nick S D :D). In chronological order (to the best of my recollection): Yamaha SG200 Unbranded Les Paul copy Fender Jaguar Epiphone Dot Squier VM Jaguar Bass SS Squier Venus XII Fender PS Mustang...

Nice work, MacGyver

There don't seem to be any easily available strings that are light enough/long enough for that top A/B.

Looks lush.

What strings did you put on it for teh baritonez, Hurb?

That's what I was picking up from the various YouTube demos I'd seen.

I really don't need another dirt pedal though.

So, will probably get one

Always thought these looked amazing. Such a nice colour. Plus the B&B.

Very jealous! Enjoy

How do you find the DS-1w, Thom? The custom mode sounds pretty good from YouTube demos I've watched.

In my opinion everyone should own a joyo /Harley Benton American sound I have two They really are that good. No speaker emulation... Are you sure about that, Mike? I thought they were the same as the Tech21 ones except you couldn't turn off the speaker emulation? The blurb on Joyo's website seems t...

I've got a bunch of the Joyo/Harley Benton ones but the manuals for the original Tech 21 versions have some suggested settings to (supposedly) get the sounds of the original amps. This manual covers the Blonde (Fender), British (Marshall), California (Mesa) and Liverpool (Vox): LANK The suggested se...

This thread started me down a rabbit hole, to find out exactly what kind of "amp" I was modeling with my preferred Sansamp Classic settings, so now I am also looking at the "California" Joyo model I forgot about that one, weird that they've got 2 Fender-style simulators, though ...

Does joyo make a clone of the tech21 Oxford? The Oxford is an Orange sim isn't it? Don't think Joyo/Harley Benton make ones of those currently. They just make the Fender, Vox, Marshall and Mesa-Boogie ones. Suspect it may not be preying on his mind after almost 10 years but, if Finboy's still inter...
