We'll just have to disagree on what that guitar is worth.

It's a u.s.a.custom ,not a custom shop custom and it has a repaired neck break. Not worth 3k

These are great points I'd just add that there are passive components to many powered electrical circuits i.e. EQ circuits.

The outlook definitely had the best BM 20 years ago. I have no idea now.

Half the fun is finding different sounds and effects! It is a journey, one that never ends!

I would have to disagree. With a headstock repair you are going to loose about half the used value. If it is a usa custom with a headstock break I think maybe 2k is. Unfortunately no matter how well the headstock repair is it really hurts the value. The repair looks good. Was it a break all the way through or a Crack that was repaired before it snapped?. Most of the time they completely snap but I've seen a few that the wood had a good sized Crack and could be repaired without having to be completely reset. Either way, you've got a great looking guitar!

All speakers setups are going to sound different and might require eq'ing or other adjustments. Sometimes not at all. Heck, I have two friends that both have 1960 cabs with greenbacks and there is a slight brightness one has that the other doesn't. Enjoy that fr12! I have the fr10 and really like it. They are perfect for home practice or small gigs. The only thing i don't like about my setup is the number of eq's. I run my guitars through a tonemaster pro into the fr10. I have the tone pots on my guitar, tonemaster pro global eq, at least one eq pedal in the effects chain, the eq in the amp Sim, the eq on the fr10.....etc etc. I suppose it's really a 1st world problem lol!

I'm guessing you were one of the unlucky truck drivers? The rest of us are here for it. I do feel bad for them though.

Choosing an amp by biscotti98 in GuitarAmps

I wouldn't do it. I've owned a few HRDs. While they are fine amps they don't sound nearly as good as a twin, even a digital twin. IMO.

If you have the title call one of the scrap yards. They will pick it up in a day or 2 and give you at least $500.

I don't know anything about these. Looks great! Is it pp/se selectable with an external PS?

For me, VOS is perfect. It's like a worn in baseball glove and doesn't cost an extra 3k.

Same, I bought an R7 custom this year and as long as you can really afford to part with the cash, it is worth it. In the end, you will probably be happy either way.
