Nice!

It slips out of tune but that's just because the strings are new and need the slack played out of them. No need to play in new strings. Tune a string to pitch, then yank it away from the fretboard it. It will go flat. Tune to pitch again & give it another yank repeate 3 - 4 times per string the...

Yeah, but it's a lot of cash.

So I bought this today... http://craftereurope.com/prodinfo9772422/ Has a really nice solid "Andes Rosewood" arch top, solid mahogany back and sides. Mahogany neck, rosewood fretboard and bridge. Came with a hard case as well, I bought it used €200.00. Pretty cheap as it sells for €649...

Okay, got mine today... First impressions... this mother bitch weights a metric ton, shit is heavier than my Les Paul. The pickups sound nice, definitely get Strat and of course Tele tones. What blows me away about this guitar is how well it's made. It feels like a €1000 or more guitar. The neck i...

Good tip!

Cheers Robert. I fond a used Crafter SA Andes Rosewood with Hard Case for €200 that I am picking up today. Buying this: http://www.thomann.de/ie/harley_benton_cg10x_street.htm I need an amp because the foot traffic on Grafton Street is insane and there are other buskers every 100 meters or so. Thi...

Setup how? If the strings are too high, lower them. If the intonation is off, adjust the saddles. Ten minutes work. Teach a man to fish and all that. WTR, did yours arrive? Not arrived yet, probably tomorrow. I am shit at setting up guitars... I am into playing them, not guitar tech-ing. I have a g...

I am still waiting from the Harley Benton TE-80 I ordered as well, maybe tomorrow. The problem is, I know it's gonna need a setup and as I can setup a guitar for shit that means I will have to take it to my luthier and that means at least another week wait. :-( Guitar Acquisition Syndrome is fucking...

So I am thinking of buying this Harley Benton Custom Line Nashville to do some Christmas busking... This summer I rented a room to 3 Moldovan lads who were busking on Grafton and Henry Street here in Dublin, they were making around €300 per day, only playing a few hours. I was thinking this would ...

I bought one this morning... damn you westtexasred...

Question, how are you lads in the states buying from Thoman.de? I didn't think they had a U.S. online store?

I will have to learn to live with that I guess.

Archtops are pretty amazing.

I lucked into this beauty but like an idiot I sold it.
