@slowhand84 and @andrewsrea Here is a clip for apples-to-apples comparison. It will be deleted in 12 hours. A few notes... - What you see is 2/3 of our house. The cat tree and puppy kennel will be moved shortly. We. have. no. room. - The video's tone is what I heard in the room (the camera's mic wa...

I've had enough of the SD '59 in my 335 clone. Below is a clip of what it sounds like. I don't know what it's tone has too much of (or is missing) but whatever it is, I've never liked it and will be ordering something else soon. I think that I want something with some more top end. But I'm not sure...

I think most people will not know the difference on the font. I was also talking about guitars for sale other places than GC. I wonder if GC pays more when trading in if they see Seymour Duncan on the pickups? Unless the seller has receipts, i would be skeptical. Depending on the fakes, you might e...

Beware buying anything which the pickups are labeled Seymour Duncan as a upgrade, Ali express sells many fakes, Seymour Duncan, JB, JAZZ, 59, Lace sensor, Suhr, EMG, Burns tri sonic, Bigsby. You may be getting $30 pickups. Easy enough to tell when you open it up, and GC has 45 day no questions aske...

Not surprised, most of these Bentons when they're under $300 (and ESPECIALLY when upgraded) don't last long. I also shared this with someone on TGP who was looking for one, so maybe he went for it.

Thank you! This one is a lifer for sure!

WOW - that is spectacular. Great score, congrats and enjoy. Thank you! Pretty thrilled with it, this is one of those NGDs that was so long awaited and has exceeded all my expectations. I was originally planning on swapping the pickups but I can see why the SH1N/SH4 is such a popular combo for these...

This isn't one of the roasted neck models (but rather the regular maple neck ones), still a nice deal at $289 with these pickups though given that the set of 3 Duncans would probably be close to that on their own: https://www.guitarcenter.com/Used/In-Store-Used/Used-Harley-Benton-Pro-Series-Snake-Sk...

Beautiful guitar, and congrats on the most excellent score. It's surprising that an instrument so easily prone to injury originally came with only a gig bag instead of a hard case. I have a MIJ Jackson King V and the original case in ginormous. Thanks man! Yeah I actually think from what I've seen ...

That's so sweet. The exact guitar I wanted back around 1988 when I ate, slept, and breathed Metallica and Kirk Hammett was playing one (albeit Floyd Rose-equipped). Congrats! How does the neck feel? What's the profile? Yeah for me I always associate this guitar with (obviously) Randy Rhoads but als...

And a not very high-res photo of the catalog for the year these came out...if you click to open it up and squint a bit you can read all the specs and the original price (in yen, of course):

One more pic of that sweet USA spec headstock...I will never understand why so many companies use that pearloid crap on expensive guitars when real MOP looks so damn good: You're killing me dude Haha. Proceed in here for the real pics since it just arrived a few hours ago: https://aguitarforum.net/...

So unbelievably excited about today's NGD...after 10+ years of hunting I've finally scored my holy grail of Jacksons! I've been after a high end Rhoads for over a decade but I had a few specific requirements - I wanted one with the highest-end specs offered, a string thru body bridge, and preferably...

I recently made a purchase on Reverb and noticed that I had a card on file from way back. The card was expired and has been cancelled for a long time. So I went to my account and tried to delete it. The steps were easy enough but when I got there and clicked on "Delete", I kept getting a ...

Nice guitars. Cost is about DOUBLE of a FF...BEFORE MODS which you may not need to do with the Wolfs so it's probably a wash. I LOVE the fact that they have PLENTY of stock for our "Left Handed Brethren". :) https://www.allinoneguitars.com/wolfelectric?page=1 Yeah I would not compare thes...

After not buying any guitars for a bit, I just scored my holy grail of Jacksons...been after a super high end Rhoads for MANY years but never found the right one until now. This one is a Jackson Stars RR TN01-STB (that's a mouthful!), these are equivalent to the USA Rhoads models in every way and bu...

Harm came to my door today. 0224231731_resized.jpg When the 10 lb box arrived, I saw it was kicked in, and my heart sunk a little. I carried it in and pulled the guitar out, but leaving it in the bubble wrap to aclimate. I just wanted to make sure it didn't have a broken neck, and happily it did no...

Was noodling around with this really simple progression and decided to record it. Been a while. https://youtu.be/8VlFvDznQcw Nicely done sir! I have the same exact Dullahan, dropped some Bareknuckle Holy Divers into it and it's freakin' killer. Also apparently the thumbnail for my photo below is sh...

The really sad thing is when people lose HUGE money in these types of situations...the previous owner of this Harm may have lost $150 or so in trading this to GC but I have a few $2,000 to $3,000 guitars that cost me $400 to $600 courtesy of GC Used...meaning the original owner accepted $300 or les...

Yeah it was beautiful man, the entire country came together, settled their differences, and designed a $60 strat copy

What kind of sad is that the original owner probably got no more than half the listing price in cash or credit from GC. Those most likely GFS pickups in it probably cost him around $90 shipped so in effect, he sold that Harm for $10... The really sad thing is when people lose HUGE money in these ty...

Inexpensive strat for sale local. Can not find squat about the brand though. Looks to be "Kceer" or something. Anyone? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230223/9b84ce9bc3718ff78fd009df2ea06235.jpg Sent from my Pixel 3a XL using Tapatalk Found it in a quick Google search, it's "Kacce...
