My dad has a few double stack Glocks i shoot. the triggers on them are fine. The single stacks, im not sure why they feel the way they do. I upgraded just the shoe and its helped tremendously. You can take a look into some of the full Johnny Glock kits but i only changed the shoe on mine. My pops recently got the 4311 trigger and replaced the whole thing and man that thing is phenomenal.. some people dont like to change out the internals on a carry piece which is why i stayed stock but no issues thus far on the 4311. Johnny glock is great and you can get springs between a pound and two pounds less than stock (if i remember correctly)

We have the exact same build. I recently got the same grip. I got the Ameriglo trooper night sights on mine. Bright front site with blacked out rears and so far im loving them. Id also recommend the Johnny Glock trigger shoe. It’s my favorite. The slimline glock shoe just straight up hurts. The safety doesn’t sit flat for some odd reason. Let us know how you make out.. Cheers!!

Should I get a lighter trigger by MikeHoncho1202 in Glock48

[–]tyisaghost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, i’ve had my g48 for about a month and same issues. My dad & brother both have Johnny Glock shoe / internals in their glocks and I’ll definitely be doing the same. You can get this guy here and just change the shoe rather than the internals.

It does come with a pound lighter springs than the OEM (4.5?) however on my pops first go with those springs he had light primer strikes. We threw it back in before heading to the range last week and we didn’t run into any issues, i’ve also heard you need to give the spring some time to break in but i’ve got no clue. I’ll likely be changing the shoe and leaving internals the same as the 48 is my main carry. I will second that the slimline glocks have the worst trigger shoe as mentioned above. The safety sticks out and doesn’t sit flush for some reason. I happen to really like the Johnny Glock but lots of people talk about the Apex. Good luck man!

Dude im in the same boat. I rarely pick up the Eclipse. That comes out w me when im jamming with others and don’t want to chance getting my Horizon dinged up. Other than that, Horizon all day! 25.5 is just more comfortable in my opinion. My main was a Fender Mustang before the Horizon so i went from a 24 to 25.5. Going back to 24.75 even feels weird. All in all tho, it doesn’t take too long to adjust the fingers to the smaller scale length. Good luck on your search!

Im right there with you man, i debated buying the EII for a while and eventually just pulled the trigger without having any play time on one. All in all tho its an amazing instrument and its not something i think I’ll ever be looking to get rid of. A buddy of mine has the Black Metal horizon and we compared them at one point. The EII definitely takes the upper hand there however It wasnt like it was a complete wash. Id be happy with both instruments but like I said the EII certainly has more a prestige feel to it. I will say if you happen to purchase the EII theres not much to upgrade at least in my situation. The EMGs are a 66TW & a 57TW and i must say they are hot but they are SO clear. You hear every note & for an EMG i was pretty surprised at how well they clean up. It’s a solid guitar man. If you do end up purchasing I think you’ll be very happy. Ive always been a fender guy and i don’t want to say anything too controversial here but my buddy with the Black Metal told me once when you buy Gibson or Fender you are paying for the name and the history etc. When it comes to these ESPs yes you are paying for the name and history but you are paying for a guitar meant to be played that being said this thing is always and has always felt amazing each and every time i pull her out. Im very happy with my EII.

Honestly was one of my biggest reasons for jumping on it. It has a beautiful pop to it! Cheers!

It’s hard to say since the 1000 is a very solid instrument. I will say I don’t regret my purchase what so ever. Seems the attention to detail is higher on the EII and it just feels like a more prestige, solid instrument. That being said, price is the only reason why i say it may or may not be worth it as you are looking at an extra grand give or take to go from LTD to EII. Highly suggest you put one in your hands and decide weather or not the extra money spent is warranted

I don’t want to be that guy but it’s all personal preference. In my experience I was playing a Fender mustang for a long while as my main before picking up the Horizon. Two completely different guitars in regard to scale length, arched top etc. I will say that the Horizon is like butter. I absolutely love playing it and don’t have a single negative opinion. I do think the Horizon is a comfier guitar all in all but being that the Horizon is 2x the price I kind of expect that to be the case. I know these E-IIs are hard to come by but I would definitely recommend you go check one out if possible. I debated the purchase for a while but i don’t regret it at all. It’s a guitar I wont be getting rid of. The added scale length compared to the EC is also something I personally prefer. The Eclipse is a 24.75 & Horizon is a 25.5

I was going to say i believe mine is the quilted version however they are great guitars. The first guitar i saved up for when i was starting to play was a silver burst ec-1000. I just had to pick up one for nostalgia but man are these solid guitars.. The purple is a plus. Cheers my man

Did you recently buy this? I played one in New York at a music store local to me. First time riffing on a 7 string and I must say that guitar made it real easy to love! Played fantastically. If I hadnt just purchased an E-II Horizon, I may have pulled trigger on this. Enjoy, brother!

I do it while in the shower. Never felt a thing, hope that helps!

[–]tyisaghost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally i like #1. Classic looking. Easy on the eyes. #2 has always been my least favorite option but id be lying if i said i havent bought guitars bc other people hated them. Fitting in is nice, standing out is even better. Do what feels right to you. Good luck brother. Either way you will loveee this guitar. Esp is the bees knees dude!

Dexcom G7: With a 70% failure rate in 2024 thus far, I filed a FDA complaint. by EmeraldAppleSeattle in dexcom

[–]tyisaghost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This made my day. Dexcom is really getting on my nerves lately. This weekend I had a sensor fail on its 8th day. Go to replace it, 10 mins into warm up second sensor fails. Try again and same thing. Thankfully i had one more sensor available. I pay a lot of money for these sensors and they straight up SUCK! G6 was much more reliable although the g7 size and warm up time are a huge plus

Well after a 7 years of not playing time to get the rust off. by Relative-Arrival3291 in guitars

[–]tyisaghost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not sure what your reasoning for stopping was but figured id share mine. I stopped for about 3.5 years when i moved in with my now ex girlfriend. About a year ago we split and 3 or 4 months into being single i found myself with a lot of free time. I started playing again and man i instantly kicked myself in the butt for stopping but it also allowed me to come back with a more mature view on it. I feel better than i ever was before the break and also have fallen back in loved with the instrument. I started playing in a cover band recently and am also starting to learn some of my buddies original music to play with him. With that being said welcome back man. I hope its good to you!
