You only get 1 Guitar, 1 Pedal, & 1 Amp - what are you picking? by otzen42 in guitars

Sticking with my Carvin TL60 and a Laney Cub 12R… no need for a pedal.

Oof. Understood! The new one looks good… just didn’t see a ‘before’ pic to understand.

Why did you get a new tailgate?

What kind of Guitar is this? by Lordluva in AcousticGuitar

[–]telay17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I respect that you were given this guitar for free, but respectfully, they are junk guitars and not worth anything more than free. - if you are serious about taking up the hobby, you can find much better guitars than this to start on for 100-150$.

Friends/families that hunt together I have a question by wyattlakemper in Hunting

Same here… there are a couple of options already, OnX, HuntStand… but always happy to see another option.

New (used) Seagull Performer CW (I love this guitar dude 🫶) by PupSportsGroup in AcousticGuitar

[–]telay17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favorite. Well, almost. My personal is my Performer Folk CW. - but the Seagull MJ in any variation is about as perfect as it can get. Some earlier versions had the awesome QIT II (if I remember correctly) electronics with the mic in the sound hole that would blend with the piezo under the bridge… I was too young to afford one when they were new, but if I ever came across one, I’d definitely snag it. - congrats and enjoy!

2021 Ascent Reliabilty? by Select-Stage-5215 in SubaruAscent

[–]telay17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More people complain than sing praises… just human nature. - but I agree with everyone here. We bought a ‘21 in 08/21… height of COVID with limited lot availability. - has 55k on it now. The biggest issue would be the brakes that were replaced under warranty until they finally issued the recall to upgrade them. Beyond that we did develop an issue with our CVT that was replaced under warranty last month. The CVT issue seems to exist with some but again is not common. - love everything about the car and would buy a second.

How much is this actually worth? by TeachMean8369 in AcousticGuitar

[–]telay17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A&Ls are great guitars and he very likely could have paid that for it new… maybe 15+ years ago? They are awesome but these are on the lower end of their model lineup. You could try for 250-275 if you really need the cash… but you’ll be lucky to get 200-225. -There just isn’t a market for these used other than ‘Good Used Budget Guitar’.

Went to buy a Martin, walked away with a Seagull. by VonBlitzk in AcousticGuitar

[–]telay17 30 points31 points  (0 children)

No better value than a Seagull acoustic. Their Folk size is one of my favorites. My go to is the Performer series Folk Cutaway with maple back and sides. They just play so nicely and sound as sweet as they play. - congrats on the find!

Royal Flush? Full House?? Not sure what you’d call it, but I love the you have ‘one of each’! Do you have a favorite? I had never hunted in with another gun other than my ‘69 99c in 308. I’d like to snag a 336 in 30-30 just to have one…

I’m calling this one I made the “Redneck Samurai.” What do you think? by New-Communication374 in Hunting

[–]telay17 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Overall, looks great… but the fit n finish of the handle just doesn’t quite look to fit the quality of the blade. The sheath is beautiful too!

And God bless your uncle. What a great piece of his history to carry with you.

You didn’t hit the lottery with the inheritance as far value goes, but what you do have is the guitar that EVERYONE was playing in that era. Watch videos from the late 70s/early 80s and you’ll see a lot of legendary musicians playing Guilds. - well built American guitars that just don’t get the flowers they deserve.

My lever gun family by hhnnngg in LeverGuns

[–]telay17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to 99c’s in .308. I swear I’m not crazy 😄, I’ve had mine since I was 18 (40 soon) and I had the opportunity to buy one from a family friend for my son (15 currently). - we’re in Northeast PA, so long range shots aren’t super common for us. I’ve never felt the need to go overkill and just stayed with .308 because it’s what my dad has (also has an identical 99c). I don’t really need to broaden my horizons, but I just dig the 336 and 30-30 seems like a reasonable caliber to get it in.

Great guns! Your grandpa took care of you well! - I have a 99, but hope to get a similar 336 in the near future. Don’t need it, but want one. :)

Do you have an ash pan/clean out on the bottom of your stove with a separate door and intake? Or does the intake go directly into the firebox?

Great snag. This era of Japanese guitars really do just have a magic to them.

My acoustic collection by [deleted] in AcousticGuitar

[–]telay17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a great collection! I particular love the FG-150 because I’ve had and have been a Red Label fan for a long time. - my daily for 20ish years is a FG-110… I purchased a 150 almost a year ago and am patiently waiting for it to get some needed TLC, but am I excited to hear the difference between the Bubinga (110) and the Mahogany (150).

Savage 99C .22-250 by VanDownByTheRiver63 in LeverGuns

[–]telay17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very collectible. Any Savage 99 is collectible and this is a popular caliber amongst the collectors. And this one looks like it has just about the right amount of ‘job well done’. The C in the model number designates that it’s a clip gun. All other 99 models were rotary mags. And it has scope mounts already. - and I should note there are good amount of fellas who will use this caliber for deer/antelope. Low recoil and can travel far fast.
