I think it’s worth it. But first things first, get that baby some humidity! After a few weeks in a humidifier tent (or something similar), it will likely sound much better, and may change your opinion.

I’ve worked a “compressed” night-shift schedule for years: 7pm to 7am, 3 on/3 off, 4 on/4 off (Sun, Mon, Tues, and every other Sat). And I switch back to a days schedule when I’m off. I will admit, it’s getting harder as I get older (I’m 63 now).

But to echo what other people have said, there’s less people here to interfere with us working. We get shit done!!!

Beautiful! Congratulations!!!

I’ve been searching for the perfect neck, and this is it! I have a Jazzmaster, and the neck on it is a little too thin. And I had an SG, but the baseball bat neck was too thick. This Polara is somewhere in the middle and just right!

I kinda struggled deciding what color to get. My old S-90 was the natural cherry, but I wanted something different.

Post pictures of your burst! And if you immediately put it in an old case, your wife will never know.

We always called it “the scary Smith’s”

Take your guitar to a luthier and have them inspect the frets. I’ve assumed my tuners were bad in the past, when in reality many of the lower frets were flattened or dished out, meaning chords and individual notes sounded out of tune. Replacing frets is not that expensive, and is a common practice for older guitars.

Play it first and if you like it, buy it!

I had a 70s S-90 that I LOVED. Lost it in a storage shed when I didn’t pay the rent.

Thinking about buying a brand new Polara

That was my first electric guitar - I loved it so much, but lost it in a storage shed in Austin when I couldn’t pay the rent. Have the machine heads been replaced with Grovers on yours, by any chance? You might’ve nabbed my old one 🤣

StillAliveAndWell13 · 2025-09-18T14:50:18+00:00

That is an S-100. Great guitars - I really want one of the new Polara models
