Re: Douglas Ceti (Harm) on Reverb

I still have and love my Ceti. Got some sweet Harpmaster modern P90s in it and it just sings. It's one that I don't plan on ever giving up.

That's cool. I'm a late comer to Megadeth, but once I gave them a listen I was all in.

Went and did a thing: Gretsch content

Work with a guy (sold me a gorgeous Larrivee acoustic last year) that had recently purchased a Gretsch Boxcar resonator. Turns out that he loved it. Like a lot. He's in love with the idea of a resonator completely now. So much in love that he decided to get himself a pretty high end National. I forg...

Re: My PRISTINE Agile 3000-M Double Cutaway

I’ve always regretted not getting an Agile double cut and an Agile AD-201 (I might have that model number wrong - but it was a flat top lp style). That quilted blue top is amazing.

Some people are a bit put off by elaborate inlays - but not me! That’s truly beautiful. That top really holds its own against the inlays. Beautiful all the way around. You’ve got a stunner there. HNGD!

New (to me) Larrivee LV-03

So earlier this week I got a lower end Takamine and absolutely hated it. Sounded like a toy compared to my (admittedly) bottom of the line Martin DX1. I was telling a guy I work with about this on Thursday and he said, “Why don’t you send that thing back and I’ll sell you one I don’t play anymore (h...

Re: Larrivee acoustics

I just got one today (going to start a new thread) and I’m floored by how much I love it. It seems to fit squarely between a Martin and a Taylor tone-wise. Tone is subjective, though. What sounds amazing to me might hurt your ears!

Re: Just Picked up a New (to me) Katana 50

Nice score! Those Katana amps are nice ones, and get really loud for solid state amps. It's honestly ridiculous that I have a 50w amp, let alone the 100w Katana that I already had, because I always play at a very low volume. Nobody needs to hear me very loud. Set them up in stereo.
