Re: Remuda app for Fender Mustang amps …

I'd caution you about the Mustang I's and II's—they only have treble and bass knobs, no mid control, so you have to go into the patch to adjust that, as oppose to a quick swipe at the knob on the amp. The III is a real work horse, and lighter than my Vox AD50VT … some of the default basic amp patch...

Grote 335 copies $159 @ amazon

These are normally around $180, but seem to get some pretty good reviews. For $159 you get a 335 clone wiith a rosewood board, and free shipping to boot. Plus its Amazon prime so zero-hassle/free returns if it ends up being a lemon. Google Grote 335, i don't think I can post an amazon link here. Loo...

Re: Grote Thinline HollowBody

Someone bought and posted photos of the same guitar in Red back on the old AGF right before guitarmageddon. I've been eyeing up the 335 version too, seems to get some good reviews as well. And lo and behold, they are down to $159 with free shipping from amazon. I was actually thinking of pulling the...

Re: Remuda app for Fender Mustang amps …

I downloaded the installer for FUSE back when they were talking about killing it, and still have it running on an older PC.

Re: SX advanced order

I still think $169 for the Ursa 2 is a heck of a deal, and those aren't supposed to be here until September so I''d guess they will be subject to any shipping increases.

If you know her and she's a friend just ask her. If nothing else approach it as a safety concern on her property. "hey, I noticed a burning plastic smell the other day...might want to check and make sure nothing is overheating"

I am definitely liking the gray background with reddish headers/URL's and gray text on the full screen PC. The header is a bit large on both platforms, but i can live with that. Did you say we'll have the ability to change themes on our own eventually too?

I very rarely use picks. I do have some but honestly i have no idea what thickness they might be - mostly ones that have come as swag or filler in other orders.

I'm categorically against shipping so that's unlikely, but will keep it in mind! It is an amazing guitar, stainless frets, push-pull for both pickups, and lightweight with a great neck profile.

I think they're identical to MIM Standards. I was kind of wondering that, there seem to be a lot of basses right around that 199 price point from Ibanez, squier(affinity) and even Yamaha. And with the rondo shipping rates, I’m over $200 for the SX. But I take it the Ursa probably stacks up against ...
