I am playing bass in a band now and have just been using my friend's Beatle bass copy. I have been eying that Squier Mustang bass in surf green. However, to Nick's point, I could probably get by with a Bronco bass. I'd definitely drop a cool rail in tho. I just went the opposite direction and put a...

So, a minor update. I've been having issues with fret buzz, without any amount of adjustment fixing it. After screaming at the heavens for a bit, I left it with the tech at Walt Grace Vintage to take care of it while I was out of town in DC for a beer festival. I got it back today, and it is perfect...

I really don’t have any intention to sell this for a while, if at all.

It’s on there and ridiculously overpriced strategically to placate an upset wife with a minimal likelihood of selling :/

All completed, strung up, and has a trem arm now (Allparts BP-0274-005 and some anti-seize, just if anyone needs a trem arm that'll work with a Bronco). http://i.imgur.com/bRr9cri.jpg http://i.imgur.com/G2HSasx.jpg http://i.imgur.com/5JiE2MI.jpg http://i.imgur.com/12VWJl7.jpg http://i.imgur.com/MA7B...

Finally back home after almost a week out of the US waiting out Hurricane Dorian and a weekend in Orlando, because wife and I are Harry Potter geeks and I am also a major Simpsons geek. This morning, I started on the project. Took the guitar apart to inspect better - I had already decided on all new...

That's what I thought. Or a G&L pickup.

1976 Bronco

Found this while poking through Guitar Center's used site, and I got curious. I called and the salesman said that the electronics were replaced, and that it has a pretty rough swimming pool route. Since the price was low enough, I decided to take a risk. Should arrive next week - let's see if it's a...

Epiphone Flying V

I decided to peek at cash america's website, and there's a pawn shop not far from my work that has an Epiphone Flying V. Sadly no pics, but they posted the serial - 2008 Made in Korea @ Unsung plant. Does anyone have an idea of which model flying Vs were made that year? From what I've gathered, that...
