Eastwood pisses me off because they make things nobody else does, then they overcharge. It's just mass-produced Asian stuff...nothing they make should be over $300. I want one of these, but not at $849. http://www.eastwoodguitars.com/GTRs/messenger/images/gtr_Red-messenger.jpg On the other hand, GFS...

I've tried to talk myself into one of those...even done photoshop layovers with the different pickguard...it just doesn't do it.

Plus, one of the things I like about the original is that they are big guitars. I like big guitars.

why did it have slanted frets? What's the purpose of that? It supposedly matched the "natural" angle of your hands when playing. It ACTUALLY was just a retarded idea that is really annoying as you get up the neck. Rickenbacker has a long history of fucking up good guitars with really stup...

That's actually a Greco (you can tell by the "G" tailpiece) made by Ibanez...(I think...it also has an Ibanez truss rod cover...it gets confusing in Japan in the '70's) The greco model was the RG550. http://www.ibanezcollectors.com/discus/messages/13/1003881.jpg The Ibanez version is the I...

I am absolutely jonesing for one of these: http://www.guitarnerd.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Picture-31-431x197.png ...which is a copy of this: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v118/turquoisemoleeater/guitars/rickenbacker481.jpg Normally, I'd rather have the real deal, but Rickenbacker ONLY m...

That is pretty cool. I had one of the big ones and sold it because it took up too mush real estate on the board.

...well, that and because i don't play much Van Halen

my Mxr phase sounds like ass in the loop and way too strong out front. I have the knob barely turned when its out front and it is way too much. Any suggestions? That's weird...the MXR phasers tend to be pretty subtle! What one is it? Phase 90 out front is the classic subtle EVH/Iron Maiden trick. T...

Toro, I like that Guiterrez...I love that style of body too. Are those $$$? Also, can a $179 guitar sound good? That F hole tele looks great, but that price makes me wonder what the deal is. Anyone have one? The deal is that is what guitars made in Asia SHOULD retail for, but everyone else jacks th...

I have two questions for the guitar experts.... 1. I have a soldano hot rod 50 blahblahblah... The squealy shit can come from a bad speaker cord as well...make SURE it's not a sheilded cable and isn't all fucked up. Really mismatched ohmage can sometimes get that goin' on too. All in all, I would t...

I am interested in hearing the Egnater Rebel 20. It has a pair of EL84s AND a pair of 6V6s for power tubes, and a mix knob to adjust how much of which tubes are giving you your output sound. Only $549 which is cheap for the Egnater name, though I do think they are made in China. Doesn't say on the ...

That must have been very uncomfortable.

The ES-135 sounds and plays great. I would like to get something like that this year. An affordable hollow body. I went to the Waterstone website, but they don't seem to be carrying hollow bodies anymore. I saw a couple of them on Ebay though. That Godin I posted a few pages ago is still in the run...

Max wants $25K for his replicas and $12K for his Stevie D's... I didn't pay that. :shock: Nevermind. :lol: Any suggestions on an LP style guitar that's not a Gibson? Dig the tone, not always the feel (quality control is slipping...). Yah...as was said, the most consistently highly regarded ones are...

It's a true vintage 1959 LP tone. Grab a Supro amp and you are Jimmy Page in a nansecond!

*hrm*.

Page was rockin' a tele with the Supro.

I gotta take some pics of the Korean Ric copy i bought last week, then spent the whole time since stripping and refinishing...it's pretty cool...

Those SD Charvels are very enticing...and fairly priced!

I picked up an electronic drum kit...now my living room looks even more like guitar center than usual!

So, I want to learn to play slide and was figuring I'd get a (cheap) new guitar to keep in an open tuning. Was thinking about maybe picking up a Danelectro of some sort. Thoughts? I thought about getting one of these for slide. http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics/products/3/9/7/573397.jpg ht...

How is the Egnater at a super low volume? I play a lot, and I'm looking for something that still sounds good at a very low volume, so I can still hear the YV. For a tube amp, it's as good as anything...you can crank it down to one watt (it has a continuosly variable power section), but you're still...

So tell me people, which one of these would you choose? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JElhF57WaBI I had my eye on the Night train, but then the Blackstar seems cool. And I didn't think of the marshall, but then it's like the only one with reverb. Anybody have any recommendations? I love the "...

Can anybody tell me what this guitar should be worth? It's a 1983 (?) Ibanez AS-50. Strange model; I've only personally seen one other one like this before. My wife gave it to me years ago and she finally gave me the okay to sell it or trade it for another guitar (of MY choosing this time). It's ve...

Is that a Studio Lite? From what they're saying on the Gear Page forums, the best deal in the world right now is the Gibson Robot guitars... Sam Ash is blowing them out for $999. Apparently the Les Pauls (which were the full version of the "studio" with the binding on the neck and all) ar...
