Welp. She's all gone. I'm financially in the (relative) clear again. The shipowner felt bad and said when I wanted, he'd offer me a good deal on a Gretsch I really wanted at one point. Plus I still have my acoustic, which I love dearly.
All in all it's not a goodbye to electric guitaring- just...
Hey there fellas
I really appreciate all the nice messages. I feel a bit better about it all. It'll be said and done by around 7 PM tonight. I'm selling it to an independent music shop that's owned and operated by a good friend, so I'm happy it's going to someplace good. If my luck turns I will...
Not much really to say. Times are really tough and between making tuition payments and feeding myself I don't have much in the bank. Need an emergency bit of cash so I'm selling off my old Les Paul. It's not even that great, but I loved that thing so much. It was a gimmicky les paul slash gold...
Hey fellas
So recently I've been experimenting a lot with strings on my acoustic. I play on a PRS SE Angelus. It's kinda got a grand concert meets symphony thing going on, in terms of type/size. I don't know what they call it but I've sent an email asking PRS.
I've used the earth woods by...
My first new guitar in years! You guys may remember I was looking for advice on a new acoustic- well, I got one! A PRS SE Angelus Standard. Set me back about 630, included a hardshell case. I was actually REALLY surprised about one thing in particular- they included an extra bone bridge in the...
My opinion as a list:
1. Zimmerman was within his legal rights to defend himself.
2. There was no need for anyone to die that night.
3. Zimmerman acted unethically, but not illegally.
4. Unethical =/= illegal.
I think they should solidify their offerings, and blur the line between "custom," "standard," and "lower priced." There is too much clutter in the Gibson catalog IMO. I look at PRS's as something ideal- a few expensive custom and one off guitars, a large and diverse body of median priced...
Well the thing is, I don't need an absolute great to play, but I don't want a beater acoustic either- I just want something I can have fun with while playing on the porch or at open mikes. But I followed you guys' advice and looked at a different one- this one is solid spruce on top and rosewood...
Heya folks
So I've been in the market for a new acoustic, and I've picked one out: the Mitchell MX400 Mitchell MX400 Exotics Series Acoustic-Electric Guitar | GuitarCenter
Probably with the quilted ash. Now, I see that it's a 380 dollar guitar, so I don't expect the WORLD, tone-wise. My...
Talk about downplaying. He was in a band that defined an era in music. All of the big movements of The Doors's time were things they encapsulated: blues, jazz, poetry, drugs, excess. They weren't just a quirky band from the 60's. They arguably WERE the 60's.
Except they put out two more...
