PSA: FedEx destroys guitars and doesn't give a rat's ass

Let's start with the fact that they require the person that shipped the guitar to make the claim regarding damages and not the person who received the actual destroyed fucking item. Guitar was shipped in a hardshell case with/in the same packing box and material that I received another acoustic guit...

I don't like the wide nut or the headstock. So I always recommend Simon & Patrick instead. Same parent company and great guitars.

The Cyclones are 24.75 scale, if I recall correctly.

I'm glad it's not just me that feels liked this, and it's this that was putting me off it for a while but I think I'll give it a proper go this weekend and see if I can rekindle my 620 love. So far to me it feels like the difference between Rickenbackers and other brands is a bit overstated. Maybe ...

NGD - Rickenbacker 620 Mapleglo

I have been GASing hard for one of these for a while. Played as many different models I could get my hands on and the 620 was the winner. Musician's Friend had it used in mint condition plus a deal on used gear last weekend, so I got a pretty nice price for it. Set up was pretty alright out of the b...

Mine's the one in my avatar - it had actually been cannibalized and I restored it, so I don't actually have the original pickups or guard. You're definitely right about how that kind of money could probably get me a nicer guitar, but damn, the number of these on the market has shrunk considerably si...

What do you mean? I don't have any problems with the bridge or arm in my SQJMJM. Arm fits nice and snug and doesn't move unless I make it move intentionally.

I put out a feeler thread over on OSG for my Cyclone II and I was told that $700 was not an unfair price for it. Definitely more than I expected, so 500 euros doesn't seem that crazy. I was hoping someone had an HH model they'd trade me for it but no dice.

Would if I had a good excuse (or joined a punk band), mostly thanks to misguided love of a very non-punk Teh Charlottez many a year back. Could flip for at least $1100 over here if I decided to wizen up. http://userserve-ak.last.fm/serve/500/46855567/Charlotte+Hatherley+ash_charlotte_hatherley.jpg ...

I got one of these for free (206a with built-in speaker) several years ago. During my move to California, a woman crashed into the side of my new van (3 weeks old) in South Dakota, totaling the van and damaging the EP pretty heavily. I had to leave it behind and have my grandparents sell what was le...
