Re: Douglas Ceti (Harm) on Reverb

Back in the day i must have clicked on the rondo listings of the Ceti 100 times....but i never did pull the trigger, dammit.
I still do have my 1 douglas Gravity p90 $89 b stock. Id think its value has risen since then. The nicest sunburst finish ive seen, even to this day.

Re: NGD - IYV Les Paul

I bought the trans black prs type Iyv guitar, the actually sent the green lp as above, but i already had enough lp models, so back it went. It did have a nice feel though. But im quite happy with the prs (350?) guitar. Pickups are supposed to be alnico but im sceptical, they sound like ceramic. No i...

Re: Whats your' latest gear acquisition?

Ordered this off amazon for $169 shipped, IYV IP350. Pleasantly surprised how good it is. Only thing i can pic on is a few mildly rough frets, on the crown (the ends are really good). I have a lot more confidence buying from amazon over firefly/guitars garden. They sent me a green lp by mistake, it ...

Why they cant ship to canada is beyond me. They did for a short while, shipping was $65 i think?

Re: Firefly P90 Gold Top LP

I sort of want one, i miss my agile version a lot. Bummer that the pickups are not good. The ones in my $99 douglas gravity are plenty serviceable, so would have thought those would have been close. Let us know how the mag swap goes

Re: Speaker Selection for a Frontman 15R/25R Conversion

I built a new cabinet for a 12", used a 25w WGS green beret with a fm 15r. Night and day difference in sound. Only problem is the volume control is ridiculously touchy, very hard to regulate. It needs a different pot or a resistor to make it more useable.

Re: Is the Firefly is the new al-2000

The only thing the fflp has in common with an al2000 is the price. Try to buy an AL instead, way better in every way. However, it seems FF do manage to sell a few good guitars once in a while. With the hype and sell outs they have with these guitars, I would bet TJ's Rondo collection that FF will no...

I fell for one of these flierfly LP things and lucked out on the lotto draw.

It needed a refief adjustment,...

I bought the blue one as i wanted the maple neck. Just the fret ends needed touch up and the usual setup. Its a nice deep navy blue color, looks really good, and is the best value in a guitar today id say, far better then any Firefly lottery.
