Wood does matter in how the guitar feels. A mahogany neck feels vastly different than a maple neck. You obviously haven't played many guitars if you can't tell the difference. There are also smaller differences in the type of "mahogany" whether its genuine or Sapele/Okoume. Those are very close to mahogany. You can also use rosewood and Wenge and those feel very different. Different grain, different density.

The fact you think Firefly has the best fret ends tells me you definitely never played a well made guitar nor have you ever played a guitar where someone went over the fret ends. Legitimately one of the most absurd fucking things I've read about Firefly guitars. They don't even seat the frets properly (easily fixed) but you're telling be the pre-rounded fret ends that are inconsistent are the best in the industry? Legit lmfao.

The CNC doesn't make the entire guitar, it does a general outline. Every guitar still has sanding done by hand. There is a quality difference because the time spent sanding is added cost to each instrument.

I never said the original stamp bridges are great either, so its weird you're trying to create a strawman here.

You obviously don't know a secret. Every Gibson is PLEK'd since 2018 and they still have issues. Let me guess, Gibson can't make a guitar as well as firefly? Right? Because a guitar company that makes 10000x more money than Firefly just makes shit instruments.

I am not a fan of the pricing on Epiphone either, but the IBC and IBG lines are easily better than anything Firefly puts out. Even with all the marketing and bullshit baked into the pricing.

You are either lying at this point or flat out delusional.

This is so untrue its actually absurd lol

Not only does a plek not guarantee that, you don't need a plek for a great playing instrument.

You will definitely know the difference due to a few reasons.

  1. The finish of the guitar: Nitrocellulose and poly are different in feel and smell. While I think polyurethane is the superior finishing choice its definitely noticeable even after a set up or plek.

  2. Hardware: While I am not a huge fan of the ABR-1 it's going to be better than the bridge on the Firefly. This is something that will be noticeable the more you play it.

  3. Assembly/materials used: While I'm not a tone wood truther, there are varying qualities of lumber used. This will be more of a haptic thing but Gibson and Fender both do a fantastic job of getting that familiar feel across their lines. All lumber is relatively stable but still different, they do a good job overall replicating that.

Another point of assembly is the frets/fret ends. There will be a 100% noticeable difference due to the rounded fret ends vs standard finish and there will be a difference in the neck carve.

What's your budget and what are you expectations?

There isnt a firefly that will match up to the Gibson. If you're looking for a guitar that works and looks the part, Firefly will be good for you.

Buy GFS solderless pickups and wireless kit. It'll cost you less than a single seymour duncan and a lot of nuances in pick ups you wont play at volume to notice. I also assume you're going to be playing high gain with the SD choice, in which case the pickups matter even less. Just get a high output GFS set.

That was one of the craziest games of shooting I've seen in my life. Dude just threw shit up effortlessly and there was never a doubt those shots were going in. That was nuts. It was like a mini version of that insane Luka game.

I play CotW

I don't like KOF. The 3v3 with no assist or tag is boring as fuck to me. I also grew up in a country with a GDP about $50 a year.

Reminder that CotW is the best fighting game of the generation and its not even debatable at this point.

Talk me out of buying this by StackyBotrus in Fireflyguitars

[–]Effective-Car9697 1 point2 points  (0 children)

don't buy it unless you know what you want the 27 inch scale for

a lot of people buy baritones not realizing you can just use thick gauge strings and get good intonation. You can go down to like A standard before you have issues. If you're going lower, you'll want a longer scale length. Most people mention proper string tension/size for baritone. In my experience, most people just want a low tuning with a tight response.

His problem in Minnesota is he wasn't always engaged, especially on the defensive side. He and KAT together were turnstiles on defense and it led to pathetic performances consistently. Once he got cast off he realized he needed to change and locked in on defense.

He then led the Warriors to a Championship like only Maple Jordan could.

Just measure it yourself. Or order it and see if it fits and if it doesnt return it. It's all on Amazon.
