I just ordered one of these. Locally they're sold out, and ZZounds guaranteed delivery by Sunday for one... so why not.

Gretsch G2210

I was dropping off the Finboy Jazzcaster today at a local shop to have the routing filled in, and saw this. Gretsch Streamliner Junior Jet Club in Imperial Stain. Holy crap it's beautiful. I thought it might have been a walnut body, but nope - stained Nato. I fucking fell in love and nearly bought i...

Hey guys, I never felt it was misled. I was aware of the condition of the guitar before I bought it and knew full well that it was playable as it is, but it needed a little bit of TLC. I have no issues with that whatsoever. Finboy has been a pleasure to deal with. As far as update on the guitar, my ...

PRS headstocks look horrible on almost anything other than the original PRS.

You have bare wood? Maybe not kerosene then.
A small part, yeah. I night just put another piece of duct tape on it and leave it as is

For now, the guitar is now safely at my tech's shop for a setup.

After having it apart for a bit, I think I'm going to have a slightly larger guard to cover some routing on the upper horn... or if I'm feeling up to the task, cutting a small piece of wood to fill it in. Trying to figure out what to use to remove duct tape residue without possibly damaging the expo...

NGD. A Thing from Canada

I bought it form Finboy, and after a delay at customs, it's here! Taking it to my tech tomorrow for a setup and discuss ideas. Unfortunately my wife's been in meetings all day, and I've had a ton of job interviews (somewhat fortunate?), so other than bolting the neck on, I haven't done a thing to it...

Sterling Shortscale Cutlass

Hadn’t seen these before, but at $299 with cool colors for something different (and probably more likely to be eligible for MF’s 15% discounts), I could be tempted once I get a job.

dots wrote:$550 for a busted ass guitar likely requiring hours of effort and maybe a tech to get right is way outta line. $350 max.

dude prolly saw the average sale going between 7 and 8 hundo and figured 150 for someone's trouble was worth it. WRONG.
And his counteroffers are absolutely ridiculous.

We'd have to pay sales tax, and I'm not in the mood to give an extra cent to DeSantis.
