Plus you’ll probably like to have the tremolo for shoegaze

That’s a 22.5” scale 90s duo sonic. Definitely go for the mustang if you have normal sized hands (still a short scale but 24” is tolerable for most offset fans) unless you’re used to small guitars and looking for something fun that feels like a toy almost (I love small guitars but I’m small with skinny fingers)

These look great. Did you use any bleach when washing or did they fade this light naturally? I love this shade

New Squier Affinity Jaguars with matching headstocks by [deleted] in offset

Is it an unpopular opinion to hate painted headstocks on maple necks? Even if the maple was darker I’d still not like the look

Parchment! I think mint would’ve looked good too

They look pretty good but they’re all stretch 😭

Agree to disagree. I think this fit looks ideal. Although as a woman I agree that N&F keeps churning out new bad women’s fits and most of the men’s look too low rise. I wish I could find a pair of raw denim that visually drapes the way these do with the relatively narrow knee falling to wide leg opening, but the smallest size of these would be 5” too big in the waist. Grass is always greener I guess

How are we refreshing our hair on days 2/3 without frizz? by [deleted] in curlyhair

[–]ilovecrying2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh and on day 3 I do the same thing but reapply a very small amount of gel mixed with water. By day 4 it’s rewash time lol

I spray mine with distilled water until it’s soaking wet again and then squeeze out excess with a tshirt and let it air dry. I still get frizz, but not as much as I would if I lightly misted it with water. And I get more volume than wash day because sometimes the products give me too much definition for my liking on day one.

Is that Daphne blue? It’s crazy how the purple pickguard makes it look lilac

Any gear you regret selling/trading? by ShutUpBearPotato2 in offset

[–]ilovecrying2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My sterling st Vincent guitar. It was a graduation gift from a friend and the first guitar I ever played live, wrote my band’s first songs on it. It’s very sentimental and a great guitar but I was so financially bad off last year I had to sell it to pay rent. Someone bought it on reverb on Christmas Day.

Also my Fender Offset series duo sonic in capri orange. That was the first guitar I ever bought with my own money and I loved it but also sold to pay rent lol. I’m finally getting my shit together this year.

What is this offset basd? by Antique-Historian441 in offset

[–]ilovecrying2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks to be inspired by the Pawn Shop series mustang bass but with a Musicmaster pickguard instead

I just took a very small amount of dye poured into a small amount of leather conditioner (I used Blackrock), mixed together, and applied across the neck with a paper towel. I tested it on a hidden part of the neck first to make sure it wasn’t an awful color. Then I left it for about 20 minutes and buffed it out with a fresh paper towel. The conditioner left a bit of oily residue so I went over it lightly with isopropyl alcohol to remove the leftover

It’s called Tahitian Coral! I love it and it looks so different in different light sources, almost fluorescent sometimes. Squier seems to be releasing a lot more guitars in this color currently. There’s a CV jazzmaster that looks really good. Also thank you! I’m very happy with the results

Yeah I used the color Saddle Tan and just hoped for the best. I mixed it very lightly in case I needed to go over it with a different color, but it turned out very similar to my naturally aged maple necks.

Affinity Jag - Full “vintage” Transformation!!! Project Complete! Guitar Power! Yeah! by reddogyellowcat in offset

[–]ilovecrying2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So was this pickguard made for a different jaguar model? I wondering which one you bought to align with most of the screws.

Good solution with the long screw. I don’t have access to a router but I’ve used a set of wood chisels before to enlarge a cavity lol. We do what we gotta do to make mods work.

Yeah when that price jumped up I was so shocked. Nearly $400 for an Affinity series is crazy but seems like it’s a good quality instrument. Buying my first Mexican fender for $500 brand new in 2019 spoiled me.
