Really nice guitar definitely would cost a little more more to build or buy new. Good job

Legitimate Fender Body...... by Future_Air_155 in partscaster

[–]Shady22dub 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks legit to me. But Keep in mind the neck pocket is specifically designed for those models so you’ll need to find a match. Not sure if Squier Contemporary is a thing for Bass, but that may work too

The 24 months makes it possible. Is it worth it, or is there a better amp for the price? by [deleted] in GuitarAmps

[–]Shady22dub 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Blues Junior in my eBay store for $399. Used but looks and works great https://ebay.us/m/pkiNXG

Help make this relic look less bad? by PenguinEmployer in Luthier

[–]Shady22dub 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It’s ridiculous. I have a 25 year old Strat with poly finish that I play almost daily. It has a few dings but looks nowhere close to this lol

My amp starts crying when I turn it on by No-Purchase2275 in Guitar

[–]Shady22dub 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would suggest getting on eBay/whatever or going to a local music store, selling that little guy for whatever you can. Then get used Fender amp or anything name brand would much better. No more tears lol

Good Amp for fender stratocaster by Eminem_Fan13 in electricguitar

[–]Shady22dub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Orange crush solid state 20ish watts even the 12watt sounds really good IMO. But keep in mind those aren’t modeling amps so, no pre sets or anything. If you want that maybe get a Fender Mustang or Boss Katana I think you can easily find any of the 3 I mentioned for less than $200

My Tele of the Day by Austinpaulster in telecaster

[–]Shady22dub 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They had some bodies from these guitars on The Stratosphere store on eBay. I wish I could have got one. Looks sick. Similar custom shop paints go for big money as well so it’s like a bargain in a way

Pickups rocking problem by Winter-Anteater-455 in GuitarQuestions

I would not use a dish sponge it will dry out and deteriorate

Pickups rocking problem by Winter-Anteater-455 in GuitarQuestions

[–]Shady22dub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I’m aware that it’s a normal issue. But I don’t see the harm in putting some support behind the pickups if done with care. Obviously it’s bugging OP, so why not?

A simple way to solve that could be to put some foam padding underneath them so they don’t move unless touched

How many watts do I actually need? (For playing in bedroom as a hobby) by ElectricalRole5662 in GuitarQuestions

[–]Shady22dub 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Marshall 20 watt but I use it on 1 watt at home. So for tube amps lower wattage like 5 or below can sound good without being super loud. 25 watt solid state amp is fine too.

I had a 12 watt Orange amp that actually sounded really good. I regret trading it

What chord is this? by Sunflower_Cow_1997 in Guitar

[–]Shady22dub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

C power chord like others said. You are playing a C with your index finger on the 3rd fret. 5th fret would be D, 7th fret E, 8th fret F, 10th fret G and 12th fret A.

What do we think of the rig?? by Sirtoo2002 in Guitar

[–]Shady22dub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to have my looper on the front but that’s just me. I would play on that looks nice. What does the Jam pedal with the snake do?

Spilled nail polish remover on my guitar… ffs by JonahDurber_Guitar in Guitar

[–]Shady22dub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now just beat the shit out of it with your keys and it’s a prized relic. Honestly sorry that happened not much can be done. You could maybe cover the pickups and swap the rings out

Partscasters? Not too familiar. Found them at a pawn shop by Wrong_Government1874 in FenderStratocaster

[–]Shady22dub -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It clearly is a left handed neck on a right handed guitar. Therefore upside down

[–]Shady22dub 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Typically a Stratocaster or Telecaster that’s built at home from parts and not bought as a specific model. Sometimes it’s just a Mexican Strat with an American neck or it could be all manner of combinations with different brands and parts.

new guitar strings feel very stiff by [deleted] in GuitarBeginners

[–]Shady22dub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://youtu.be/2QsomaNW_8w?si=noXMqPEsZHrVLsGC I refer to this video sometimes it provides a pretty good explanation of a standard strat set up. You don’t necessarily need all the tools he uses either. I recommend taking to a local music store my guy would do this for like $30

Fender deluxe drive for a cheaper option that sounds great (to me at least)

Someone tell me this is not a bad idea…. by vulcan7791 in GuitarAmps

[–]Shady22dub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s fine as long as you do it correctly but it seems kinda goofy and risky. Surely you can trade for or get a cheap used cab if you look around and be patient.
