Re: Old Gretsch Synchromatic Junior Jet
One time I bought one at Guitar Center used for $250….it was the fancier red sparkle bigsby model with 2 pickups…might have been a thinline IIRC. I had some instant buyers remorse, especially since one of the tuner keys snapped off on the drive home, so I returned it. But it seemed a decent enough g...

AI Mastering
Is using AI mastering like Landr for songs I recorded and mixed myself the equivalent of crossing a picket line, or are there other reasons I shouldn’t? Is it like getting a hair cut at the mall and maybe you think it’s good but the first actual hairstylist who sees it is going to “know” and ask whe...

Re: Mustang Bass
Ahh thought that might be it. I see the grain and different logo on the headstock now, the color looks the same as prison stang orange.plopswagon wrote: ↑Thu Dec 28, 2023 12:08 am To be far I think it’s a yellowed white as opposed to faded orange.

Some Friday night couch playing and these two looked photogenic together.

Re: Guild Surfliner project...need advice
Looks really nice, especially the guitar-amp combo! In my experience, what people tend to call unfinished neck on "budget guitars" is a regular, thick finish done with matte lacquer. It can sometimes reach like a couple of millimetres in thickness and people would still be calling them un...

Re: Guild Surfliner project...need advice
The neck arrived yesterday, although I’m not calling this quite finished yet - the necks on these maple models feel rough and unfinished…these are necks on supposed $500 guitars, tbh it feels rougher than the $150 Bullets or Sonic Series or whatever they’re called now. Wondering if someone had sande...

Re: Guild Surfliner project...need advice
Ended up “winning” a maple surfliner neck from eBay…got a few bucks cheaper than the other one posted here, and the truss rod is said to be working well. Few options and tbh I haven’t really had many guitars with maple fingerboard…maple on sherwoodish green is still a good look and I do kind of like...

Re: pictures of your guitars here
I’ve owned a Squier Bullet MIJ that dated to 1984 I think. Paid $200 and parted the poor thing….sold the loaded body on eBay for about what I paid and threw the neck on a newer Squier Standard Tele I sold to Dillon. Definitely a 2008 Nick thing to do :| I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Tele custom fro...

Re: Guild Surfliner project...need advice
Ah it didn’t occur to me it was a 23 fret neck- I was counting wrong and figured it just had the 22nd on the heel instead of on a fretboard overhang
My Ovation Tornado is actually 23 frets, but other than that I’ve never seen it anywhere else

Re: Guild Surfliner project...need advice
I saw that one on eBay - it looks like there may be a truss rod issue though. And all said and done I’d be in it for not much less than a used one goes for regularly- so if I must go that route I’d like to make sure it’s solid. I’d also prefer to find a rosewood neck from a deluxe. Slightly annoying...

Guild Surfliner project...need advice
Bought a Casio MIJ strat neck a while back from Love of Fuzz for $50. Have been hankering for a Guild Surfliner Deluxe in metallic green since they came out. Found a loaded body on eBay for a good price. Guild.png 25.5" body 25.5" neck. Fits the pocket like a glove. Looks fricken sweet, be...
