Re: TRAYNOR YCV40-WR

Well, @toomanycats did you get the amp or what? Your post inspired me to fire up my amp for the first time in quite a while, and I fell in love with it agin! Channel 2 (clean) with and without some dirt in front is just so sweeet. This amp has to be on the 50 Watt setting (not 15W) to sound good on...

Re: Judith Durham R.I.P.

Beautiful voice. We are so lucky to have recordings that freeze these artists in their prime. BTW - I doubt this is from the actual recording, it looks more like a promo piece for the song - but what the heck, I’ll bet they recorded a live performance rather than multi-tracking parts. Thanks Mickey ...

Glad eBay did the right thing, but a shame about the whacked out seller. At lest you have some ready cash to breathe some new life into this head trauma patient. I hope your time and trouble pay off for you. 👍🏻

Looking for info on Recording King RO-328

These look promising but living in the boondocks makes holding one a real PITA. So I’d appreciate some hands on experience from someone here on the forum. I think these are advertised as solid wood guitars. Here’s a few photos… https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220803/8c118c939d302cdb96715508eed9e2...

Great find Mickey- you won’t find many guitar playin’ coyote tricksters like these two. Tone for miles and miles.

Re: NGD - Harley Benton Fusion II - Guthrie Govan Edition

Man, you have got the guitar luck on your side. That is a fantastic looking guitar...if it plays half as good as it looks, its a complete steal. Love that wood grain/texture/color on the body, neck, fretboard and headstock...all match seemlessly. Nice score! Thank you! It really plays great and sou...

Re: New neck. Who dis?

Well, I am very happy with how it plays, the V is super comfortable in the palm, and the 1-3/4 nut width on the 24" scale gives me enough room to play comfortably. I'm glad I had so many options in my guitars to take the things I liked the best. I had one V profile guitar and it is one of my f...

Re: Better to buy at Thomman than at Sweetwater?

My best buying experiences have always been through Sweetwater. I have even returned a guitar to Sweetwater - no questions asked. If they have several of the same model guitar (over $300) they show each one front and back and they list the weight. You get to pick the exact guitar you want. I was one...
