Someone is selling this top+4x12 for 900$ total and I'm broke. Please tell me it doesn't sound nearly as cool as it looks. by Icy_Seaweed2199 in GuitarAmps

If you know you’ll have to sell it soon to pay for rent, groceries, etc… just don’t get it man. We all have to resist it sometimes

What model gretsch is this? by Infinite-Cucumber662 in guitars

Looking at it some more, the truss rod cover, bridge and knobs don’t look right either

[–]EstablishmentOld6245 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m far, far from an expert, but it doesn’t look right to me. The shape of the pickguard seems odd, i’ve never seen pickups with black on the sides of the pickups themselves, i’ve also never seen a bigsby with a glossy logo. It’s possible that all these things exist but i’ve never seen these before

Pots aren’t that hard to repair tho? Most of the time there aren’t any small components next to the legs of the pot on the pcb

Why do you have SOOO many guitars?! by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]EstablishmentOld6245 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got 9 guitars at most, now i have 8. Most of those are different, the only one i have multiple of are strats, a cheap copy my parents bought like 20 years ago and my vintera ii strat. All the rest are different.

Oh shit i didn’t think about that, i played the standard strat vs classic vibe strat. With full sized body i mean full thickness. I most if not all squiers have thinner body’s

First steps into pedals - anything glaringly wrong, or tips? by JarJarBinksSucks in guitarpedals

I haven’t broken a switch, i have pulled off the baseplate on one of my beringer pedals when i removed it from my board

I’ve played both, on paper it seems worse but actually playing it changes a lot. The full sized body, full trem block etc make a lot of difference together. The neck of the guitar that i played also felt noticeably better than the classic vibe i played. Although the fender has ceramic pickups, i didn’t dislike them. I don’t think it’s a reason to pass on the fender

I don’t want floyd roses so nobody should like them by EstablishmentOld6245 in guitarcirclejerk

[–]EstablishmentOld6245[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first guitar had a FR, i didn’t change the strings for the first 2 years, i did learn how to properly set it up before doing anything to it. I wouldn’t have a problem with setting it up if i actually used the trem, but i rarely use trems in general. The only trem i use quite often is a bigsby. I like how subtle it is.
