Any guitar players on TW?

And why is that?

 

Gotta be in a wedding on the day their in Raleigh, and their in Charlotte on a wednesday so work puts a damper on that.

 

Guess that answers that question

 

DLR was in town last night, but having to see Kiss with him prevented that from happening lol.

 

Lol...thats not me. That's the dude I sold it to.

 

I was lucky one day to have him sign this for me though.

 

I'm interested in hearing what the 5150 sounds like.

 

I don't have recording equipment so it would be phone recording

 

Any of you acoustic gurus know about adjusting action on them? The neck is perfectly straight, but I want the action lower without filling the nut grooves

 

easiest would be dropping down a string gauge.

 

I have 11/52 on it now and that's as light as I like to go. I'll try sanding down the saddle some

 

Overtime money has burned a hole in my pocket, again. I had the opportunity to play one of Fender’s new Tone Master Deluxe Reverb amps last week. I’d been reading about them on the Telecaster forum. It is a fully accurate digital replication of a ‘65 Deluxe Reverb. Looks identical, sounds amazing, and you can attenuate it all the way down to bedroom levels! I love the sound of a DR, but 22watts is waaay to loud for home. The settings are 22w, 12w, 5w, 1w, .02w. You can set it to 5watts, crank it up, and hear it break up. Sounds like the real thing! The future is here. I still love my tube amp, but this thing will be very cool!

It will be here tomorrow!

 

that's cool! i remember selling my Twin early on because it would peel the paint off of my fuckin' neighbor's walls before it sounded good!

 

Plot twist if I may...my old man has a Kay Banjo. He's had it since the 80s in a case. Has quite an ornate engraving on the whole back of the body. Looked at it today as he had it out and said he's looking to sell it cuz he just noticed it in the back of his closet. Neck is straight, no twist or bend...I'm a extreme amateur guitar guy at best so I know shit about banjos and am about to start googling but I figured if there was any knowledgeable banjo cats here to point me in right direction.

I don't mind liberating this instrument if it's something, but not if it's an everyday item

 

Found a 65 strat in the trash.

 

You lucky fuck, any more pics of the whole thing?

 

Post up some pics

 

I'll take a few tomorrow when I head over...anything specific I should focus on? I didn't see any plates or stamps that were obvious

 

Not sure there are so many models, do a google search and you will find some info or pics that look like what he has.
