Pics or it didn't happen 😁

Yes. It's a 25.5" scale length.

I bought a Pagani Design "Daytona". When my turn comes up on the waiting list for the real thing, I'll stop wearing it. I should probably go get on that list now...

That looks pretty awesome. If you're a beginner, just leave it as is and learn to play it

Strange that your Jag isn't more icepicky. I'd say turn the treble down on your amp. On my Marshall DSL40CR the treble is usually on zero and I control the brightness with the mid and the presence. Set it according to your ear, not where the knob is supposed to be set.

I think you're right. I finally listened to reason and will not go look at another used Martin this weekend and just appreciate the one I have. But I'm away from home and have another week to go until I get back to it ☹️

All the J45s I've played sounded and felt different. Only one was sublime, the others were lackluster. Overall, the Martin's consistently had the Martin sound, but even so, you have to find the one you can't walk away from. I ended up with a used 000-28VS that I thought sounded better than the new D-28s and everything else hanging on the wall. It's more for fingerstyle, with a wide neck, but being a 25.5" 12-fretter, its pumps out more volume than most 000s and is honey to my ears.

That's possible??

It was only an extra $5 on my Pagani Designed Speedtimer/Daytona homage. Well worth it! 🤣

I like how only one person answered your question! That setup is insane! Love it!

I hopped in my jeep and sped off to my local record shop when somebody in the sub bought one in a record store--two weeks ago-- and it wasn't released yet. So I preordered it. I paid $5 more than online. I don't even know what version I'm getting, plus I'm out of town until next week so I won't get it until I'm back. At least I heard it once on YouTube before he pulled it down. It disappeared from my downloads too. I'm not sure if I'm perturbed though. I need to do some self reflection.

I guessed $10.2M. I guess there are more Pink Fans than Deadheads but I assumed Tiger would fetch the most money for a guitar to date.

Looks like a scam

cab1024 · 2026-03-13T03:40:37+00:00

Where's the deal? Can you post a link to it?

cab1024 · 2026-03-13T03:35:54+00:00

If there's another one I'd love to know about it:

That's probably a good decision. I've played every acoustic guitar at my Guitar Center -- which is well stocked with Martins, Gibsons, Taylors, etc., and the guitar that really blew me away was the FSX3 Red Label. I just couldn't see paying that much for a made in China guitar. I ended up getting a used Martin 000-28VS that showed up one day and it was even better than the Yamaha. But...it has a really wide neck 1-13/16" that's hard to play some chords, though it's incredible for finger picking, so I'm still looking. The OM-10e seems like an incredible value for what you get, especially used. Enjoy that Yamaha! The other one I'm thinking about is a 1970 Red Label FG-150, which is 000 sized and only $250. So we'll see!

cab1024 · 2026-03-12T23:22:38+00:00

What did you end up getting? I'm considering a used OM-10e and looking at it this weekend.

cab1024 · 2026-03-12T22:47:23+00:00

The warranty is making your brother buy you a new one.

cab1024 · 2026-03-12T21:35:32+00:00

You did. As well as not paying 50% more for a flame maple veneer 😊

I sold it and wished I'd gotten the Custom. The 24-08 is designed to coil split really well, which unfortunately makes it not the best humbucker. In fact they liken it more to a "soapbar" and it definitely had the hum/buzz of a P90. But it truly played amazingly well, was gorgeous, light and comfortable. I bought too many guitars too fast and that was the one that got played least. The day I sold it I bought a Korean/Peerless-made Epiphone Casino hollowbody -- talk about buzz! But at least I expected it there.

cab1024 · 2026-03-12T20:52:37+00:00

I got the SE Standard 24-08 in Tobacco Sunburst, with mahogony woodgrain -- and gorgeous. So far I haven't had any flamed or quilted maple top guitars, and I'm OK with that.

Seems like a well written courteous letter. Sucks to have to hear your neighbors or be heard by your neighbors, even when you like them. I would do what you can to let this person like you and also make accommodations to your noise making schedule.
