El Toro's Official Guitarded Thread...

Did he sign the pickguard? Maybe get a thin, clear pickguard made, and screw it down over the original!

If it's just the pickguard I would look into the same type material used for cell phone screen shields. You could probably get a big sheet of it and cut it to fit.

Good call x 2. Beats fucking with Re-Ranch.

. . . Anyway, as it's just CJ Ramone, have you thought about just throwing the pickguard away?

This is a fairly good call. Do that, and you will have yourself a damn fine fender P-bass!

Gentlemen, I am assured that this fine collectible will age (and increase in desirability) as gracefully as the signatory, himself.

Alternately, the auto may simply turn into a Rob Halford signature given a few decades?

Sterling JP150DFM John Petrucci Signature DiMarzio Eminence Purple

Anyone own or played a Sterling?

This is coming on Friday.

I wondered if you were going to post that here. Congrats!

Been reading good stuff about it.

I had a PRS delivered last week and hated it.
Finished high gloss neck (deal breaker), and more of a round neck than I like.
Sounded decent tho.

[VinnieVincentsVag]

Ordered this twice today, and then cancelled the order twice.

I want it, I have the $ to buy it, I just don’t really need it.

Has exitflagger made me question my gear addiction?

I’m not getting any younger. Nowadays, if I want it, I buy it. I’m at the age now where “need” never enters the equation.

I am loving this unit.

My Kemper hasn’t left it’s case since I got it.

Did they talk about the hamster in the reverb tank?

Anybody know much about these guitars? I can get an old Peavey T-60 pretty cheap, needs a little work but I've always kinda dug these things.

Thoughts/opinions?

Looks cool.

I haven't played the t60 but I have the bass version t40. These are great instruments and were selling way under value, in my opinion. Now, people are starting to catch on and the prices have been going up. If you can get a deal on that guitar buy it.

This came the other day…



It is my go to at the moment.

[HueyRamone]

Dont you already have a few of those?

Do you mind that they're objectively....unattractive, even if you like the way they play?

This is an actual Peavey from when EVH partnered with them.
The others are EVH Wolfgangs.
Huge difference in price and quality.
I actually like the shape.
I’ve always favored Strat Shape over Les Paul for comfort, and this is kind of a combination of both.

Do you use that D-tuna thingy?

Does it drop properly, or is it a bit wonky?

I have used them, this one doesn’t have one, but I’ve got one laying around I will probably install.
If adjusted right, they work great.

Biggest turnaround for me in my guitar-lust era. I hated these when they first came out. (looks-wise. Specifically the 'bottle-opener' headstock) I've done a 180 and now completely love 'em.

Very nice guitar.
I’ve decided that I am going to sell off some of my $500-$1,000 range guitars.
if anyone is interested, send me a pm.

Played with a guy way back that had one.
Nice guitars

That Peavey Wolfgang looks like a potato.

...the old peaveys, I have a weird fascination with. I think they have some cool features, like, I think that one has a pickup blend knob. I always kind of wanted one just as a FUCK YOU to all other living people.

I just did an Orange County parking lot deal for one of these last weekend, and am super stoked. It is SO pretty:

Oh good call. I was wondering when you were gonna buy your 12th one of those thingys

[Sleek]

Sir, this is the ROYAL TAN version. This is the first time they have made this color since the sixties.

...and I only have one other Riviera six-string.

I mean, yeah, I have the Sheraton that is just a higher trim level Riviera, and the twelve string Riviera, but this will only be my second six string one.

[Mojo]

trim

Heh heh.

[exitflagger]

Somebody bought the damn T-60 out from under me while I was waffling. FAHCK!!

[VinnieVincentsVag]

WTF….

Ibanez “The Hydra”.
New Steve Vai model.
3 necks.
One of the most fucked up looking guitars I’ve ever seen.

My toggle switch knob broke on my BC Rich Mockingbird. I ordered a package of new knobs on Amazon, and they slide right off the threads.

This seems to show all the different kinds there are... How the hell do I figure out what I need?

I wanted to replace one and i didn't know if i needed metric or standard, so i just bought one of each and one fit (can't remember which, as its been a while, sorry). so you could prob check what the ones from amazon were and then get the opposite on stewmac.

Thanks. I’m worried that neither will fit, as the post is ridiculously tiny. Seems I got metric already, and the alternative is the les Paul ones and i don’t think that will be right

[Sleek]

The MAN'S alternative is epoxying that bitch.

[Turner Coates]

I suppose a nerd's alternative would be to ask about it here:

[exitflagger]

Anybody here have any experience with these guitars? I see these AIO Les Pauls around lately. Fancy looking but very reasonably priced (under $500), good reviews on build, playability and sound. Opinions or info wanted. Thnx.
