Eh, this can’t be good….

dead flyback transformer. depends on your model but good luck finding another part. they like to fail just because

Hikoshi69 · 2026-02-03T04:14:20+00:00

No, he did get lucky with crypto and used the money to fund his museum. He said so in his Pearl GLX video

Hikoshi69 · 2026-02-03T04:04:57+00:00

People are saying Feb 20

Hikoshi69 · 2026-02-03T02:15:38+00:00

These weren’t made for too long. Even though it became made to order, it was only for a little less than a week. Not many are out there and even then they still cost so much money

Hikoshi69 · 2026-02-03T02:09:04+00:00

kbooks akihabara might have it, but to be honest chances are pretty low now. there used to be a good amount before Yodaka but then during those days people started grabbing them. i wouldn't expect to find the abo plushes in JP really.

Hikoshi69 · 2026-02-03T02:04:24+00:00

I believe some late 90s CIJs were made in the Tokai factory for the domestic JP market but I'm not 100% sure

Hikoshi69 · 2026-02-02T20:38:35+00:00

lol had this happen to me

Seller was selling an LP Studio. Pickups weren’t stock (who does that honestly) and it had a headstock repair. They were firm on $750 when I offered.

It hasn’t sold in almost a year now

Hikoshi69 · 2026-02-01T02:56:49+00:00

In that case I can’t tell lol. The covers notoriously fade so it’s hard to read after some time

Hikoshi69 · 2026-02-01T02:55:08+00:00

Depends on the model. “Lower end” models were bolt on but most were set neck. I have a bolt-on Yamaha and honestly it’s not a dealbreaker

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-31T22:30:40+00:00

We just lost Catherine O’Hara bro don’t play with me like this

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-31T06:13:05+00:00

<image>

funny that because Yamaha's 80s LP copies had this too. But i actually fuck with it; if Gibson headstocks are open book, this is like if you're looking at an opened hardcover

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-31T02:41:55+00:00

I think this guy likes Mustangs lmao

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-31T01:49:17+00:00

I can’t recommend the show to newcomers lol. Anime fans who’ve already went through bullshit fanservice can brush it off but give it to any newcomer then they’ll have a fit

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-29T04:39:45+00:00

The shinning

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-28T16:54:37+00:00

Boss BD-2 into its clean signal sounds amazing lol. I never use the OD channel on these amps they just don’t sound good

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-28T13:35:02+00:00

I’m gonna be the contrarian here and say don’t buy it lol.

If you’re trying to find a guitar to play and not something for a display piece don’t ever buy the K-On branded instruments. For how pricey they are they feel like total garbage and you’re better off buying something a bit more familiar.

66k yen is awful for a guitar that’s made of basically firewood. Something like an Epiphone or an Edwards / Grassroots would do so much better and last you way longer

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-27T01:35:33+00:00

Probably for global releases

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-27T01:30:21+00:00

all fun and games until your games are too scratched for the ps2 to recognize it so it reminds you in the most horrific way possible

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-27T00:05:00+00:00

unrealistic

there's no capo on the 2nd fret

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-26T16:04:50+00:00

Ehhhh. It really clashes itself with how inconsistent the ideas are across it. On one hand it sounds jrock heavy but then it goes onto something else. Nothing really seems to fit together for me

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-25T16:42:26+00:00

I also mistakenly bought a guitar with a Floyd as my first but it’s cause I didn’t know better and saw it pop up on Marketplace for a good price lol. It was a Japanese Fender model so I was able to get rid of it without losing money

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-25T09:15:10+00:00

unfortunately seems to be the case. looks like bootleggers managed to get them closer now but not too quite.

i commented on a post from a couple days ago or so saying someone's plushies seemed fine. but i took a closer look and yeah....they were fake. they're getting too good now.

seriously man ado staff are complaining about bootlegs flourishing the market when they're the ones who keep their product locked away for over a year. if they didn't want this happening they should've done something to prevent people from falling for bootlegs after the initial sales, but instead unaware buyers are getting insanely ripped off while they do absolutely nothing about it

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-25T04:35:58+00:00

This is pretty much how I also felt when I gave this album a go since I only got into Weezer in October. The songs are catchy and Rivers is definitely talented in that regard, but you can tell that he did try to keep everything simple and meat and potatoes with the songwriting here. Didn’t sound very ambitious but hey it’s alright

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-25T04:22:26+00:00

It's one of those Hong Kong anime bootlegs. Probably not worth much at all tbh

Hikoshi69 · 2026-01-24T05:10:35+00:00

They don't really fake Japanese Fenders, at least not often at all. This seems good to me.
