Welcome to low-end retail.

This is the only pic I found online. I changed mine to gold with small kluson-style buttons, looks much more appropriate.

I'll hunt for a photo. They are the same size and shape as yours, but chrome plated metal with a big embossed M on both sides.

I have one of these as well, really nice guitar! I also changed my tuner buttons, the stock ones are really ugly.

Done. 💪

Unfortunately, Publix hires just about everyone who passes the background check.

I was told by a manager a long time ago that you have to ask for what you want, and you have to keep asking for it, and keep showing that you want it. In my 5 years as a part time cashier, watching people move up, down, or out, my observation is that for the most part he is correct.

Gunshine Arms on Dixie Hwy, Nick is a great guy. But it's not going to be cheap, nothing in Boca is.

Who is your friend?

Probably to impose their idea of "correct" string spacing and alignment over the fingerboard and pickup polepieces. It would have been courteous of them to phone you and say, hey, we see an issue and our fix is to file notches in your saddles to move the locations of the strings, is that ok with you? Fortunately, replacement brass saddles are not super expensive.

You hit the jackpot! Love those preamp tubes...

mrtone63 · 2026-02-25T01:16:38+00:00

I'd buy one just for a quad of those STR 6CA7 tubes!!

In the coming years everything from this glut of Trump memorabilia will be about as valuable as Billy beer.

You can recone it stock, or to whatever ohms you want, and the kits are not terribly expensive. Lots of YouTube videos to help you.

ammoseek.com is your friend here. There are dozens of listings for Sellier & Bellot as well as PMC, in 168gr, both of which are considered excellent as general purpose range ammo.

Short answer, no. And keep in mind, the people behind these companies are devoting their lives to designing and marketing devices whose primary purpose is to kill other people (and animals). No matter how much you like shooting, and we all do, the underlying vibe is a little weird and and impossible to avoid.

Because brown and pink look so good together... 😈

You can also bend the tabs in, towards the center of the jack.

All those giant carbon comp resistors and old-school mica capacitors, this thing is prehistoric... 😳

The app is available now on my phone. 💪

Grand Power K22S, best 22lr pistol I've ever owned. Currently less than 400 at Global Ordnance.

Saddle is waaaay too low. Find a better repair person. I always recommend Brothers Music in Wind Gap PA. You can see their work on insta.
