At first I was like, well I'm sure $25 for anything Gibson is a steal, but is a banjo or what. But then I watched this video and it actually sounds pretty cool. That was my reaction buying it - I've missed having a nice old acoustic since selling my Guild G37, and while part of me would have loved ...

Well...I wasn't expecting to find this yesterday at a yard sale. It was in a very unassuming chipboard case, stood on its side. The kind of case that usually contains, at best, a 50's/60's Harmony/Silvertone, if not a beat up 80's import guitar with a twisted neck, or nothing at all inside. $25 stic...

Ah meant the Variax, I only see the GK3 strat

Obligatory

Nice, I almost grabbed one from my local store, they've had two for under $300 each in the past year or so - they're stupid fun for the money but all kind of uggo so I passed.

True mall punks would buy a Squier affinity Starcaster for $200, rip out all but the bridge volume and splice a Duncan invader in with electrical tape, then spray paint a bunch of brown all over it randomly like Delonge’s moon dust guitar.

Way more cred.

I strongly considered messaging plops about the bridge plate, I prefer it aesthetically, I just can’t bring myself to go back to 3 saddles when 6 saddle options anre available (did the same with my thinline Tele build) And I also like the yellow painted bridge on that Mustang bass, it’s so hilarious...

God damn, I actually love the black-on-yellow colour scheme. This is my first time seeing it! If they made a shortscale bass in this scheme (Mustang, Bronco, whatever, I'm not fussy) then I'm afraid I would immediately be £200 poorer. To be honest it wasn’t my original plan but the black is really ...

This was waiting for me after work, 4 days late with a big hole in the box. It’s nice tho and didn’t have any issues. Initial impressions are great! Neck feels nice, smooth skunk stripe, pale olive ass laurel fretboard. Comfortable profile with satin finish. No sharp fret edges. Paint is smooth, the...

That pickup looks so serious!

I caved and just snagged a yellow one from Guitar Center for $160 http://andertons-productimages.imgix.net/0373651574-FSR-Squier-Sonic-Mustang-Electric-Guitar-in-Graffiti-Yellow-Hero.png Plan to use it as a learning project, finishing the neck properly and routing it for Mustang switches (hopefully ...

Haven’t done a group pic in a while. Missing a few but these are the main players these days.

The yellow with the one ply pickguard has this melted plastic guitar-Christmas-ornament quality to it that I love.

Here was the end result:

Do an allparts pick trench!

Interesting. I did end up trying Landr’s reference track feature which did seem to work nicely, but in a way felt like playing a game of Monster Rancher with my MP3’s.

We just pressed the button to distribute last night and it’s pending review, will post them in the art shack soon.

THREAD KILLER

FTFY

Hell yeah!

Black vibrato arm cap isn’t necessary tho, originals were always white. Throwing me off a lil.

^ different guitar, different factory.

The Syncromatics were made in the early 00’s in Korea, probably by Samick.

I appreciate it Freddy - right now we're just releasing a two song single (we tracked 10 songs for an album but decided to release these separate) - so I might end up going that route for the subsequent 8 song album/ep. In our last band session we signed up for Landr since we're planning to use it f...
