Re: Ngd Ibanez acoustic electric terd

Ended up being a lucky deal for sure! If I had bought that guitar new for 329 id be pissed with the fret ends alone they were horrible like i would expect on a glarry or 49.00 new ebay strat. This isnt a B staock so ibanez should be ashamed it was even sold, maybe its an old stock and been sitting i...

Re: srv pre #1 guitar build

Well hell I got hesitant on the hadean srv build. Looking at the headstock and knowing now I cant really get it as fat as a real fender style. then looking at the hairy benton strat being a thicker more square body edges like a fender I'm thinking I need to buy something like an older affinity squie...

Re: How-Bout Them P90's

Love me some P90s - to my ears, there is nothing else with the complex nuances imparted by that design. I agree alnico magnets sound (my opinion) better in P90s than ceramics. One thing I'd note is that those "humbucker shaped P90s" can't 100% be P90s, because part of the character of the...

Re: How-Bout Them P90's

I like the humbucker size p90 knock off on ebay there cheap and sound good, not the ceramic ones the alnico 2 or 5 ones like guitarmadness sells. the guitar fetish ones sound good as well the mean 90s, not the dream 90s there blah.

Nice deal! How is the strat? Comparable to Squier etc? Its nicer than a squier affinity for sure, had a tiny bit of sharp fret area that clean up in a minute. Fit and finish are perfect, no high frets and nut slot cut great. chunkier c shape neck like vintage strats, tuners feel nice and tight. thi...

Re: SX SJM Liquid copy on Amazon

they also sell a blk bound tele thats exactly the same as rondos sx or hadean, we all know rondo isnt the owner of sx so other companys can sell the same exact look under other name brands aka ktone if u look up ktone on amazon u see the bound tele sx hadean clone for sale.
