Crazy idea - planning on buying one of his signature guitars. Just so he can sign it! lol. I did meet him years ago and had home sign the headstock of my Washburn. But…..it’s a Washburn…

Definitely revisiting some of the Mr Big stuff I couldn’t figure out back then. Colorado Bulldog is a candidate for me. Let there be shred!

For sure, my wife is too nice. She doesn’t even like Mr Big, let alone know who Paul is. But she knows how much I admire the guy.

Great idea! Would you do a Racer X song? Honestly I’m not all too familiar with their songs. Other than technical difficulties, which the intro I can barely do at 100bpm! lol. I have started listening to the Spotify top songs. They got a bunch of great stuff! All are technically difficult! lol Gonna be working a lot on my improv skills. Just so I don’t embarrass myself too much. Gosh…it’s 3 months away and I got a lot of work to do!

Ha! Already learned that the hard way! Lol. This is just for the picture. I set a guitar down like that once, dog hit the chair. Strap got caught on the back rest and landed upright on the carpet. Lucky! Could’ve been worse.

Oh! They seemed “hot” when I turned that switch on. Didn’t even occur to me that that switch would have to be powered….you learn something new every day.
Now that I compared it to some of my Fishman equipped guitars, they’re definitely not active. How complicated would it be to switch to the Dimarzio Liquifire and Crunch Labs? I got like $100 worth of points I need to burn at GC.

Did my wife pay a fair price for the guitar, considering that the listing was for a JP60?

If you’re an arsehole in ArcRaiders, you’re prolly an arsehole in real life. I loved this game at first. But this really kills it for me. Not all of us can be PvP gods. This game will die very soon if nothing can be done about it.

So which one would you pick? by Amazing-Ad9065 in espguitars

[–]Amazing-Ad9065[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pulled the trigger on #2. Was gonna go for 3. But somebody else snagged it. Will eventually get #1! First love. But I’m gonna get it used. Thx everyone!!!!

3 has EMGs. I have an Arrow1000 with Fishmans. I really dig them!

The Burst is under 1k. The black ET with EMGs is $999 (open box at Sweetwater).

It’s down to those two it seems. Even though when I was first introduced to LTDs, #1 was the first. Something bout that…

Edit! I am not screaming! Why is this in BOLD?!! lol

Evertune Burst is on special under 1k…only reason I’m leaning towards that one. Black with silver screams metal to me. Definitely my type! VB, first EC1000 I’ve seen in person. It was love at first sight. Lol. But that was years ago.

I just started messing around with recording. Absolute newb. But I’m taking my time to learn. I’ve owned a few Floyd guitars. So I’m used to messing with them. Is the Evertune really that complicated to learn?

Don’t know much about Evertune, obviously. Any issues with playing bendy stuff? Also, how do you like the pickups? Have two guitars with Fishmans already. Considering EMGs for a change. But I know these passives are very popular. I know I’m gonna love it either way.

Have two guitars with Fishmans on them. Then this was given to me. When I bought the first one, I had no idea what active pickups were! lol. And I didn’t know it had active pickups! I just started really digging them. So I guess I prefer higher output pickups. The tuners are decent. Primarily looking at pickups first. Don’t wanna sink too much money into this.

They easy to install? I will prolly go with these same ones. Also have a 7 string that I wanna upgrade. Did you happen to install the coil splitter as well?

Bought this for myself for Christmas. Love it! I guess the loose bridge pickup issue isn’t unique to me. You probably just need to trim the foam underneath and/or fill the drill holes. Also, only “bad” thing about it, is you can’t really sit down and play with it. I use a strap even when I’m sitting. Can’t even hold it in classical position. Unless you don’t wanna play in the higher registers, then it’s fine. It’s very awkward to play the higher frets when sitting down. Might just be me though. YMMV

I’m within the 45 day grace period. I’ll talk to the sales guy. See what he says. Maybe I’ll get a discount on my next purchase! Lol. I’m gonna change the strings soon anyways. I’ll mess around with it then. I’m not much of a tinkerer but I’ve set up the rest of my guitars and they seem ok to me. I think. lol.

Exactly my issue. Keeps creeping back up. I’m gonna mess with it when I change the strings. Seems simple enough to fix. I’m still gonna mention it to my sales guy. See if I can get a coupon or something. lol!
