I have a Strat body almost exactly the same color if you're interested.

i appreciate that ^^, but then i'd have to buy a neck, pickups, etc etc etc.
i'm old and lazy, and all my guitar tech work is in the past.
but thanks

these days, i have to MAKE myself change strings, or they'd stay on there for years.
when yer not playing out anymore, you kinda just don't give a crap.

I tend to do mass changes every blue moon or so...

$300 off the EV Evolve Array

if gretsch actually used filtertrons in those electromatics, they'd be a pretty good deal.
but they are just a cheap HB. i had the "6120" version, and hated the sound and sold it after about a year.

The Blacktop Broadtrons aren't just humbuckers. They threw the name Broadtron on a bunch of different pickups that are just humbuckers (the original/BT-2S and the BT3-S) and caused confusion, but the Blacktop Broadtron and the BT-65A Broadtrons are actually Filtertrons with the coils spaced further apart.

The nice thing about the Blacktop Broadtrons, though, is that the ring is just a Filtertron ring with a slightly bigger hole for the pickup, so you can just get Filtertrons and the proper ring for those without making any extra holes.

Lefties…

Schecter left handed strat!

 

[jp_nyc]

$400 off of a left guitar is a hell of a deal. Both of the people who play lefty guitars should buy one of these.

I've probably said this before.... I'm Left Handed. When learning to play I would flip the guitar both ways but eventually settling in with "right" handed because the instruments were easier to find with the proper cutaways and controls.

Looking back... I think most people play guitar wrong.

Whatever is your most dexterous hand should play the chords... and your "dumb" hand should pick. Any other way seems silly, IMO.

I was looking at those a while back. I ended up getting an Am Pro Strat. If I didn't have the Strat, I'd definitely snag that.

I like Schecters except for one thing: every one I've picked up was a boat anchor.

Breedlove Acoustic.

My Schecter PT Fastback goldtop is light as a feather. (The green one with the Bigsby, however, weighs a ton.)

Half price lap steel…. What a… steal.

Comes with a stand and a gig bag. Not a bad deal for $80, assuming the pickup is useable at all.

I think that a Rogue steel goes on sale at least three times a year. It’s probably made for discounting just like some of those G&L and D’Angelico guitars.
