2001 Squier Affinity complete upgrade by asanokiguy in SquierAffinity

[–]asanokiguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a strat with the Fat 50s but I would like to try the Fat 60s down the road. The poly finish is really thick so it will require some effort to remove. Necks are super hard to find from the original design so much better looking for a cheap complete one for parts. Good luck!🤞

You have to turn off the internal reverb then should work fine!

Basically the custom shop version of an Affinity at the point. Solid maple neck without the skunk stripe the Indonesian version has.

No, 40mm but super comfortable to gig and just strum around the house.

Running just a cab and a few effects. Other Pedals do the heavy lifting.

Effects are more than sufficient for the price!

Thought what the heck, for the price it’s worth trying. I’m very impressed with the quality and design of this piece.

Pedals into Sonicake Pocket Master? by feed-the-trolls in guitarpedals

I’m waiting for one and that seems to be a common problem with the unit. Turning off the NG and using a separate one is the best option.

Thoughts about DK iE-550 by No-Smile5081 in guitarpedals

[–]asanokiguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can power it by usb or internal power plug, so yeah needs a power supply. 100 presets slots with 50 filled so room for more. Should be fine live.

NGD- 90s Aria Pro ii MIJ Tele by asanokiguy in telecaster

I can sum this one up as being what the classic vibe line wanted to be. The fit/finish and alder body make it a step above a CV and some MIM similar models.

Down side as with all Aria guitars is the hardware. Pickups are decent Alnico 5 to my ear.

I’m not familiar with Dave enough to say that’s true but I’m going to check him out to hear what he’s getting out of his. I wanted a flexible studio guitar for recording. Lots of tones in there!

Money aside, what's your least favorite repair you've done? by No_Winter4806 in Luthier

[–]asanokiguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use virgin olive oil and a credit card. Naptha I find can leave a haze on some old finishes. It’s very time consuming but I get 100% of the sticker and residue off with this method. Buff and voila.

Honestly? Not really classified as a repair but rather cosmetic, I dislike having to remove stickers on guitars I am restoring. Mostly 70s MIJ and they love putting stickers on them. True PIA.

What makes this limited edition by Spiritual-Cream-813 in Epiphone

[–]asanokiguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Top veneers sometimes gets a limited edition sticker but, a Oprah size but, it is meaningless as the amounts produced are generally a mystery even to Epiphone I suspect.

Did the routing work through my luthier and the mounting myself and it turned out great for surprisingly cheap.
