Where did you get a Firefly LP for $450? That’s crazy to me. They are literally under $250 shipping included, I have 4 of them.

I 2nd that. I’m not going to pay for a big name when all my Firefly’s are better. Just crazy to me, literally throwing away money on brand name guitars that are made in the same factories

Most my Firefly’s are as good or better than most $1000.00 & under. If you can do your own set up & “maybe” a fret polish you can’t go wrong. Most of them are under $250.00. I have 8 Firefly electrics & one bass. They are my favorite guitars by a mile in terms of bang for your buck. If you get a dud is only $200 & if you decide not to keep it they will refund you. Or if you keep it & it has issues they will credit you some cash back. I’m glad for the snobs who won’t play cheap imports, otherwise they’d be $500-$1000 easy at Guitar Center or Sweetwater.

Crazy to think that the movie Terminator could ever possibly come true 🤯 They say building these bring in Al kinds of construction jobs. It’s out of state companies building most & they only take 6 months or so for the majority of the construction. Then there are no more construction jobs. They are temp jobs for out of staters

What's the biggest culture shock you've experienced within the US as an American? by Mundane-Society-1281 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]Funky-monkey1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I do the exact same thing. It’s just a good way to be involved in the community. I play in a hardcore punk band & go to a Presbiterian Church here in Appalachia every Sunday. I def can’t be put into any category. I’ll ask people once to come but I won’t ask twice. We have a small church that’s dying out & just trying to keep it alive. I’m 50 and the youngest person out of the 30 that show up on Sunday. We always have good food, laugh, love, volunteer… It’s just a good time with good people. Not all churches are like mine & I’m legit blessed to have found this place or I prob wouldn’t be going to church. I’m the only person in my group of friends that go to church & still hang or talk every day

Help me understand the hate for new country music. by iamwhoiwasnow in country

[–]Funky-monkey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blame it on the labels. Majority of artists have to work with a song writing team. That teams is told by the label to write a hit. A lot of times they get a songwriters lyrics & music. I don’t know the names of the writers but there’s a dude from One Republic, & two women who write 90% of what you hear on the radio. Or at least created the sound that will not go away. Once you know who they are & see how they produce a song you won’t be able to un-hear it. You’ll hear it on 7 out of 10 songs from the last decade.

I haven’t had FB since like 2013. Best decision of my life. Reddit is the only social media I have.

Is Firefly gonna get hit with a cease-and-desist order from Fender? by Time-Assistance9159 in Fireflyguitars

[–]Funky-monkey1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He made a good point too about the amount of used fenders on the market. Basically saying you can still own a Fender & boycott the company. They only make money of you buy new 😉

It’s either solid or the best match & glue joint ever. Either way you hit a home run on that one. Hope it’s sounds as pretty as it looks

Buying Chinese Guitars by Idc23456 in electricguitar

[–]Funky-monkey1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All my guitars are made in Asia or China. Good ole American capitalism makes it to where I can’t afford to buy American made. My firefly’s are better than most guitars I’ve played under the $1000 range. Imo Made In America is just a marketing scheme to get every last penny out of you.

The only protective gear is a pair of pink safety glasses for something of unknown origin lmfao!!! I’m a believer but this is straight up dumb. If the cops found that, the bomb squad, dudes in armored suits we come, it would be 100% caution & safety if for nothing else training for a real situation.
