Re: GC LOL
I have bought several sight unseen used guitars from GC and have always asked the sales tool to give me an honest condition once over, I have been disappointed every time. I have what I need for what I do now and really just don't buy anything but picks and strings for the most part now. I would loo...

Re: The Adventure Begins!
California is the worst for taxes I think state by state but its more than that for working people. The price of housing went trough the roof putting them our of reach for most and rents went up with it. In the mean time damn little progress has been made with raising wages forcing the working peopl...

Re: I don't judge vegetarians
Another thing about being a vegetarian is the extreme use of chemicals in the growing of these plants. Quite often I cant find organic vegies at the store or at least the ones I was after when I went to the store so I have to buy the pesticide filled kind. Even Organic farmers use chemicals just dif...

Reverb scams, be aware
I stopped selling on Reverb when Etsy acquired them and I didn't like the 15 day period that a guitar could be returned because to many people were trying them out then doing a return which means I could not spend the money for that long. Today I saw this video on Youtube and thought everyone should...

Re: So this happened (new car content)
I have a a small gas station down the street where the guy only works on Subaru's. They are apparently a very reliable suv that can go most anywhere unless the rocks are to high. Congrats on a good choice.

Re: What is your end game in buying guitars?
Welp for me it was Agileguitar forum. I decided to get back into guitar and always loved the Les Paul. I had let a custom shop special get away years ago and missed it badly. The price for Gibson by then was much higher so I asked google for a good copy that was well thought of, popular and affordab...

Re: Offer Up
I really don't like Reverb now because of people wanting to kick the tires and maybe having do the whole return thing. I used to sell my guitars through my local music store but sadly Suzie got cancer and passed away so the the store is no longer there. I suppose Ill try Craigslist again as I really...

Re: Car end of life?
I love old car and trucks and own several but parts are a problem with not really vintage but old models. I had a Lincoln LS which was a sexy little car but not that many were ever made so parts were really getting hard to find. I let my Grand daughter have it figuring she could get a few more years...

Re: Bear mauled fretboard?
Over oiled fretboard and lots of cowboy chords? Rosewood is soft to begin with, and if you used too much oil or some other liquid I'm sure the wood would soften up. We used to call our rhythm guitar player "the claw" because he looked so tense playing chords. Hey now don't be picking on m...

Re: 1099s for Selling Gear is not Straight-forward
Well, they put it off another year, right at the last minute, so fat lot of good that does for people who were preemptively not selling for fear of getting screwed over by the illogical $600 limit... I really want to sell some of mine but this $600 and 1099 thing is scaring me off from doing it. Oh...

Re: Eart Guitar stainless frets.
Yeah, I'm waiting for a community of non-shills talking it up. I love SS frets, especially for writing on a guitar, because I might just play the same phrase 300 times before I know what comes after it. But most YouTubers are less than honest in reviewing, so I can wait it out. Oh I agree you gotta...

This is a Chinese guitar manufacturer which usually wouldn't interest me much but it appears that all their guitars have really nicely done Stainless frets. https://eartguitar.com/
