Any guitar players on TW?

Nice, like the pedal board too.

 

Thanks. Bet you can guess who made that too. Ha

 

Anybody have a Boss ME-80 or experience with? Thoughts

 

Anybody play pedal steel?

 

Pretty Impressed with the skills.

Been playing for about 15 years now and have spent my time in bands in late highschool and a small acoustic band with my buddy in college - we only did covers. Now with a kid I never seem to have the time to write full songs anymore, but have a ton of riffs stashed away, waiting to become something. Here is one that won a little contest over on reddit not too long ago (1999 Taylor 314-ce):

And fun little fingerstyle riff using the guitar in my avatar (2001 Guild F-30R):

The Taylor and the Guild both sound incredible. Those and Yamaha are always my first choices when acoustic shopping.

 

I have never played a Yamaha that spoke to me in the store. They come with a shitty factory set up and always sound flat. They have some much higher end models that my local guitar store never carries (only the intro $100-150 range).

 

My dad has a pretty high end one. And he has an entry one for porch sitting and travel. And they are a world apart.

 

Newest addition to the family...

 

Nice, looks a lot like mine, is that a new model? Mine's a '73 that had been painted but was stripped and finished prior to me buying.

 

Beautiful

 

Picked up a Squire Deluxe the other week on CL for a good price. Pretty much brand new, not even a small scratch. The guy wants to play the bass instead of Guitar... Been playing on a off for years, never really seriously... mostly goofing off making noise, haha. I'm thinking about putting a Seymour Duncan hot rails humbucker in the bridge position.

 

The only color fender ever needed to make.

 

Agreed! Great color, especially with the maple fretboard.

 

I think mine is an me-80.

Edit:nm, mines way older.
ME-33. Old as the hills.

 

Nice. I have an affinity series that I had set up. It's an ok player.

 

Here's my Martin X1DE lefty. Picked this up on Reverb. Has some pick rash which I was able to clear up most of it with a wet rag and a soldering iron. I'm a fan of Martin as they are quite left frendly and got a great deal on this one. Sounds like honey with Martin Lifespan SP strings.

 

Yeah, I like the fretboard for sure, especially the backside as it was done with a satin finish. It's really easy to move around on compared to my other guitar which is a PRS knockoff which has a glossy finish.

 

They make one other color in this model, pearl white which I would lean towards.....but the Daphne blue is growing on me...
