Re: Most Unusual Agile LP I've EVER Seen
Back off-track, some text from Wiki regarding early LP . Likely, there were several early conceptions bandied about. "McCarty stated that design discussions with Les Paul were limited to the tailpiece and the fitting of a maple cap over the mahogany body for increased density and sustain, which...

Re: Most Unusual Agile LP I've EVER Seen
Back on track, I remember the maple fretboard on Oceanbursts, but maybe only with humbuckers.

Re: Most Unusual Agile LP I've EVER Seen
I thought Gibson got Les's ideal backwards, as if he wanted a maple body with a mahogany cap, but Gibson got it backwards in the shop.

Re: Trogly Phone Call with Steve Howe
That was so interesting. Love Steve Howe. He's a most humble GOAT founding progressive guitarists. I'm not even sure I'd put John McLaughlin in an "as interesting" an early prog player category. [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51oPKLSuyQY&t=20s/url] Steve and Les [url]https://www....

Re: Playing Unplugged
I play a lot on my couch unplugged. maybe 2/3rds the time. Its easiest. But plugged in gets me involved a bit more enthusiastically. I brought a small scale electric to plink around on unplugged during my time waiting for the eclipse totality to occur. Played for about 4 hours unplugged. I drove abo...

Re: Having problems with my nut
I bet its the nut slot. That headstock makes the B and E string move out the nut at a bigger angle than many headstocks. I wonder if the slot needs to be widened at the backside of the nut, or if the slot floor isnt angled down enough to the back, as TMC mentioned. I picked up a cheap set of nut slo...

Re: Cowboy Carter
I found a few songs I really liked, sampling official vids. One was of more Spanish style. Good for her to try and mash in a new direction. Good to have more change/mashing in pop in general, I guess. On another note, I've been playing with a harmonica guy and my bass friend in practices once a week...

Re: 3 World Class Guitarists.....Goin' Down
Especially the beginning, its like 3 old dogs circling in a street reading for a fight. And Charlie loves watching it. By the end they realize they're all from the same litter. I get the impression that Jeff says something quickly into Mick's ear at the very end, that is insulting. And Mick has to l...

I bought one some months ago. See below. Love it. Amazing finish.
That extra little amp with 20$ reduction just makes sense.

Re: Trade Drama Got me confused and frustrated
IMO, and you might want to check in with trade forum admin, ...when the guy sent it out to a repair shop, instead of first contacting you about issue and/or returning the trade, he finalized the trade.
