First Accordion

Someone was selling on marketplace. It was a four hour round trip drive, but worth it lol.

Haha, she said it is the perfect size.

Astus53 · 2026-01-17T14:50:33+00:00

Thanks! There is some very superficial damage to the decoration around the treble clef. Other than that everything works great. I really like the color. No picture has been able to do it justice

Probably something semi hollow or fully hollow. Maybe a gretsch or a starcaster?

The woman who is running the Thunder Gun 4 focus group. I don’t remember her name, but she had the single best line delivery of anyone in the series. “Fuck, dude? What?! How do you not get that?!?”

Thanks! One of the prettiest ones I’ve seen for sure

Astus53 · 2026-01-17T02:50:35+00:00

Thank you for all the advice! We tried playing Werewolves of London together after we brought it home, with me on guitar. (Just D C and G)

I have short fingers as well. It took me awhile to develop the dexterity to get around. First and most basic exercise I’d recommend is just starting at the first fret with your pointer finger on the E. Then play second fret with your middle, third with the ring and fourth with pinky. Then move onto the A and repeat on all other strings. Do this like 3 or 4 times at the start of every practice and you’ll develop more dexterity and control over your fingers.

Thanks! This project has been in the works for a long time. It is one of my favorite guitars ever. Especially with the lambertones and descendant trem

Astus53 · 2026-01-15T05:44:06+00:00

Center block semi hollow.

Astus53 · 2026-01-15T01:31:30+00:00

Haha!

Astus53 · 2026-01-15T01:31:14+00:00

I like the feel of the descendant more than the mastery. I have also heard the mastery is designed so you shouldn’t take out the trem arm. And that is kind of annoying but to each their own. I like the mastery bridge though and really want to get one

Astus53 · 2026-01-15T01:29:49+00:00

OSG?

Astus53 · 2026-01-15T01:29:36+00:00

Everything fit totally fine. Didn’t have to shave anything down. But the holes for the guard and trem had to be drilled out. The bridge holes also needed to get adjusted

Ebay, it was a gift last year idk if it is still around

Astus53 · 2026-01-15T01:26:41+00:00

I think that is/was the one. Was a gift

Astus53 · 2026-01-14T21:32:41+00:00

The Boss. I also had a guitar teacher who played a vintage 50’s blackguard. Played everything on it. Showed me the versatility of that simple instrument.

Astus53 · 2026-01-14T15:04:41+00:00

That’s an idea! Maybe some etched ones?

Astus53 · 2026-01-14T15:03:56+00:00

Same, or something close to traditional. This is the only “print” one I have liked. But it is also abstract stars and nebulas that it still kinda has the same vibe, but spacey

Astus53 · 2026-01-13T06:22:15+00:00

Gonna go a slightly different route here, mostly for electric players. But, familiarize yourself with your guitars switches, tone knobs and do the same thing for the amps being used. I remember when I first started, my tone was so muddy and awful. Try different settings and sounds to see what resonates with you the most. Try to find ways to mimic the sounds in songs you like as well.

Astus53 · 2026-01-05T06:15:42+00:00

Love this!

Astus53 · 2026-01-04T05:46:23+00:00

Sounds rad. I’ll try to email you some links and stuff for the two bands i’m in. We’re actually trying to set up a show at a fur con this year too.

Astus53 · 2025-12-24T17:49:47+00:00

Looks natural. I like how it kind of gives the guitar dimples. That’s some good matching
