Just got it. Mint condition 2018 Gibson J-15 EC. I wanted it and finally found a great one at a great price. Not a mark on it. Even the case is pristine. Wife gave the ok (as long as I sold one of the others). I'm happy.

Can't even blame it on their current age. I remember buying their Love You Live album back in 1977 and thinking it sounded like it was made by a drunk cover band in a shipping container. Still though, legendary songwriting and studio work.

Didn't wanted to buy anything, but this AS153 popped out just 10 mins drive from here at less then 400 bucks...
.
It looks like new, not 1 single sign of wear.
Had to pull the trigger.
Well....if it just "popped out", you can hardly be held accountable. You did the right thing.

My "in progress" project guitar which started as a Squier contemporary strat in shell pink, which I have sprayed neon orange (partially successful), added a reverse headstock neck and changed the pickups. The donor guitar was cheap and actually I'm paying for it using some money I had from leaving my previous role. I hasten to add the neck fitting and set up will be done by a professional ha!
Nice job! Like the pickguard and orange is definitely more aggressive than the pink.

Well, it's about time.

I have no clue who he was but I do know the Ramblin Man song.
Look him up. He was one of the greats.

So the virtuoso-clip thread, intended to inspire us to up our games, gets trashed but this one is still kosher?
OK...
Now I'm confused. Once you rack up too many point you go back to being a beginner??

I took a guitar lesson with Ted Nugent the other day. Good tips once you get past the flamboyant bow hunter's quirks. He is one of my heroes. The tone he gets out of a Byrdland is stupendous!
He's not everyone's cup of tea for various reasons but has great energy and killer licks. I'm a fan...despite him snapping off my 6-way toggle
! It's a bitch to resolder the new one in.

I love Brian....weirdly....and this is a compliment....I think he sounds like Tom Jones in some parts!
Tom Jones!
.... Sings like Tom, dances like Joe Cocker. Actually, best I've heard from Slash. Impressive.

I'm using a Guthrie Govan Signature Charvel as my main, and my second is a Suhr Custom Classic S Antique ...
Can't help with your DS issue but can appreciate your taste in guitars.

I say I like the aspiration because I don't like the look of it or the sound of it but that's about the execution rather than the concept.
Wait a minute... I think that's how my wife describes me.

Who exactly is their target market? Even with unlimited gear funds, that would not be on my wish list.

I would argue that a significant aspect is psychological and confirmation bias. Perceived is the key word here and hence to me the majority ( not all of it) is subjective.
Blimey, this is a deep conversation
Alright, that's it. My head just exploded. I'm escaping back to the safety of my 16th note pentatonic scale practice before someone escalates by invoking the feared Kant-Heisenberg paradox debate.

I entered the Strandberg contest to design your own Boden refurbished. The winner is selected based off if their own luthiers can duplicate your design. So you need some photoshop knowledge. And the winner is responsible to apply the design themselves. Here is my entry and hope I win it. It's based off of my KillStrat. But bad luck is my middle name. If you come across my entry please give a like if you like it.
That design works great on that guitar style. Well done. I think you have a chance.

I've got one too. Not as fancy......but accurate!

As someone who has played predominantly in covers bands and now tribute bands (The Cult and Bowie), I do get the criticism leveled at tributes etc.
Well said V8, I like your attitude and I'm sure you're great at it. It keeps the music alive!
-
The guitarist and vocalist does a pretty good job on this one, but I could never get into the tribute scene and play covers for a job. It's like living your life as an Elvis impersonator.
Yeah, Tribute bands do not appeal to me. But you know, there are exceptions. I consider many of the classic bands that have lost and replaced personnel over the years as evolving into some sort of tribute to the original. Maybe only one member remains but they still play the same catalog.
But I do enjoy a good cover band. Every musician does covers. Being good at it takes skill. I'd love to be imitated.

Haven't had this out for a long while, but had a great time with it tonight.
Wow! That is a very fine instrument. Very jealous.

I did not need it, but I wanted it
Very nice!
I've got my eyes on some wants. Can't use "Need" because it's my wife's go-to argument to shut down any gear. "Want" clearly doesn't fly at all. I'm now trying out "Deserve", but without much success. She does seems reluctantly open to "Will pay for itself" though...but she wants proof.
I'm think I'm screwed.
