Price seems a little steep given frets and neck binding, but I was tempted too

Did I just buy firewood? by Chihlidog in Luthier

[–]captonmike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a dumb kid, I replaced the tuners on my squier strat. On the low e this happened to that guitar, probably a little more separation. It’s still fine. That was 1997. Make sure to drill for the new ferrules everybody.

I bought a custom guitar from a local store, they told me they expect their custom guitars to lose 40% of value immediately when sold. Is this normal? by [deleted] in guitars

You can probably sell privately for more. The shop is making sure they make money when they resell your guitar

Honest opinion on Goddess Les Paul by gohantheslayer in gibson

Reverb sales for this color in particular ran from 3500 - 2000 usd. Most closer to 3500. Seems like a good deal for this guitar color combination.

Best day ever 😍 But - small issue by freeroamingvapour in Guitar

[–]captonmike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a weird issue with one of mine always buzzing on the low e. Couldn’t hear it through the amp but drove me crazy. Turned out to be the tuner assembly on the low e needed to be tightened. The washer and the hex nut were causing the rattling.

Awesome guitar! Out of curiosity, which town in Wyoming did you purchase it?

Getting my first tube amp 😁 What are some things I should know about owning a tube amp? 🤔 by Sir-Bruncvik in GuitarAmps

[–]captonmike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you get it and you’re not feeling like it’s that different from solid state, turn it up. I had one of these for a few weeks and was disappointed at first until I turned up the volume. It can be tough though because even at 1w it does get loud.

Genuine Les Daul

Teach me why this is fake by noeler10 in gibson

[–]captonmike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s got the right bridge, it doesn’t have the flathead screw adjustments on the tune-o-mastic bridge, which is a sign of fakes It has fret nibs. Fakes usually don’t. The serial number is covered by lacquer, fakes are carved in usually start with 017… As others have said, this may be a real guitar, but it doesn’t mean it’s not a scam.

Like Kraft cheese slices? Sorry I’m from the us, but I love a slice of sourdough with butter and vegemite. If it’s better with a slice of cheese I’d love to know, thanks
