And you sound like someone who would love a Gibson but cant afford it so you get upset and make up crap like this to make yourself feel better that all LPs built after the 50s are rubbish.. TROLL!!!! Where is your proof that it makes any difference to tone or sustain?

Yeah its these sort of myths that have circled the internet for years and years and cannot be proved in any way what so ever. Like when people would say that any weight relief ruined the tone and sustain not knowing about the holes drilled in to each guitar body since the mid 80s until someone xrayed their guitar thinking it was a totally solid body. So does that mean that any guitar that isnt solid or have a set neck as described in the OP has no tone or sustain.. What a load of nonsense.

I wouldnt really trust youtube videos. They compress the sound to hell.. Really though, as each piece of wood used to make a guitar is unique, so is each guitar. You can try 10 of the same guitar in a row and each will sound and play slightly differently depending on the exact neck angle and how the guitar is set up and also what sort of amp and pedals and setting are used. Its really hard to tell from online videos. Also its the same with playability which I think is the most important thing. Most guitars even the cheaper ones are hand finished so each neck profile is also unique to that guitar. So if it says a 50s neck it could be in reality somewhere between a 50s and 60s neck. Sadly if you are housebound and cant go and try some you will just have to take a chance. Hope you get better soon. Im only just over a covid bout which started xmas eve.. I was only really sick for a week or so but it has been lingering and my sense of smell is only just coming back now.

Ok.. Not that Gotoh one. It says its for Epiphone which use different measurements.

Honestly im not 100% sure but I think one like this Gotoh Nashville Tune-O-Matic Bridge Large Posts | eBay 12" saddle radius Bridge post hole diameter - 6.5mm Centre to centre spacing between the two mounting post holes - 74mm Centre to centre of the two outer saddles (low E to high E) - 52mm There is also TonePros that I think is what Gibson use sometimes TonePros ABR1 Nashville Replacement Tune-O-Matic Bridge Gold NVR2-G | eBay TonePros NVR2P Vintage ABR-1 Style Tune-o-matic Bridge w/ Nashville Posts (Nick… | eBay

Gibson, Gotoh or Schaller...

Holy crap... As said he was always posting NGDs and seemed like a nice chap.. Damn life can be harsh some times.. R.I.P GuitarGod. You will be missed.

Yup.. Our police no longer have the time to catch actual criminals or patrol our streets.. Cos they are doing stupid crap like this... Honestly.. Try reporting a crime and all you get is a crime number and a letter a short while later that will then tell you theres nothing they can do about it. Even if you have video proof or something like that. It really is pretty pathetic.

Wow.. Heres another one...

So we are now at a point with digital stuff (I think) where it actually sounds pretty good... As I have said a few times recently that Spark Go is pretty impressive.. Not the speaker, but the software is truly something else. Then I just saw this vid about a new idea for open source DIY pedals. Well we have certainly come a long way since those Zoom multi effects pedals from the 90s 😄

NIce. Glad you like it.. But talk of practice tools.. I have to say, I bought a Positive Grid Go for my brother in law a short while ago and man he loves that thing.. I think he texted me every day for that first week or two he had it to tell me how much he liked it 🙂 And I have been watching several videos on it. I think im gonna get one myself. The backing track availability and the fact that it will analyse songs and show you the tab for youtube videos and spotify tracks as well as the AI jam along feature I think must make it one of the best practice tools available.

They are cool little amps, but a bit over priced for me especially the smaller one.. But then so is everything at Gibson.. So, what you gonna do? 🙄

So... You got it yet?

As long as its also AUTHENTIC 😄

Yeah this is the one I have.. Gone up a little since I bought it but still nowhere near $499 (about £390).. I got this specifically to demo guitars I built so I dont have to carry around a huge amp. It really is a nice little amp for the price. Im less bothered about where they are made than what they sound like. Marshall DSL1CR 1W 1x8 Valve Combo with Reverb | PMT Online

Well we dont have any further details yet.. But for instance I bought a Marshall DSL 1 not long ago which is a proper tube amp (combo), its only small but sounds like a mini JCM 800 and it goes from 1w to 0.1w so its good for room practice.. Really nice for what it is and it cost £220 brand new.. If Gibson have something like that or other smaller amp in the line up I will probably buy one instantly.

If they are good which I am sure they will be, I am up for a Gibson amp to go with all my Gibson guitars ... HOWEVER... Knowing Gibson which I do, they will probably be so eye wateringly expensive that it will turn me right off. Id like one but am only prepared to go so far with that. You listening Gibson? 😄

https://www.musicradar.com/news/it-looks-like-gibson-amps-will-be-making-a-comeback-very-soon It looks like Gibson Amps will be making a comeback very soon NAMM 2024: The company's new reveal confirms the return of a cult classic model and some spec details NAMM 2024: Just as CEO Cesar Gueikian suggested to us back in 2021, Gibson Amps are coming back and we now have the confirmation with a model name and a sneak peak. Prepare to take flight - Gibson Amps 'Ready for flight?' asks Gibson's new landing page where you can sign up for a mailing list to find out more when the time comes – and we'd bet on it being in the next couple of weeks. An overhead view of a guitar amp is shown above with a Gibson Amplifiers tag attached to the handle. The amp is called the Falcon 20 with what looks to be a cream Tolex covering, attenuation controls (Full, Half and Low) and a Frequency dial. Frequency for what – tremolo? We think so. This is not the first flight of the Gibson Falcon – the original tube amp (full model name GA-19RVT) was a 14-watt combo launched back in 1961 – the only year it was produced. It had both reverb and tremolo and proved just how forward-thinking the company was at the time in terms of features. The first Falcon had a 12" Jensen speaker, 6V6 power tubes like Fender's Deluxe, a trio of 6EU7 tubes for the preamp, and a 7199 tube for its reverb circuit. Gibson first started producing amplifiers way back in 1935 but ceased production in 1967. Series like the GA and BR have become cult favourites but the announcement of Gibson's acquisition of Mesa/Boogie in early 2021 saw the idea of a return to US-made Gibson amps surface. Later that year Gueikian confirmed to MusicRadar that Mesa/Boogie founder Randall Smith was taking a lead role in the project. "Randy is working on the design of what are going to be the next evolution of Gibson amplifiers as well," the CEO revealed. "They are going to be made in Petaluma, California. So Randy's been leading that.

I bought my brother in law that Positive Grid Go amp.. Not for xmas but for his birthday.. I spoke to him today and he absolutely loves it. He says he has used it with headphones and apparently the sounds, even the preset ones are really good quality... He also says it gets tracks from Spotify and Youtube you can use to jam along too and it has an AI auto jam feature which puts drums and bass to whatever you are playing so it jams along with you and has an 8 hour battery life.. Also as its mainly done through your phone you have a fairly simple touch screen interface for it too... Im thinking of getting one myself now.

And if you dont know John Squire he was the player in The Stone Roses.. And well I guess if you dont know the Stone Roses this probably wont mean much to you 🙂

I did get a few things. An t shirt from my niece and nephew A nice SS pick from my other niece And this is a polishing kit from my brother in law

It was probably Greensleeves for me 😄 Wasnt in to rock at the time and thats what they were teaching at school.. Oddly I can still play it fingerpicking style quite well even to this day (even though I cant read proper music any more). So the teacher must have been doing something right.

Yes theres been lots of this around for a while now, guitar ones are new though. I saw some science/tech type videos... In the thumbnail it would claim something like James Web detects life or, we were wrong about the universe.. Some big controversial topic like that. In every case it was like the above, no real revelations, no big news, just a bunch of facts or theories all found elsewhere on the net which in the end prove or show absolutely nothing. Yet some people out there are spewing this sort of content out daily almost flooding youtube just to get clicks.. What a sad state youtube has become.
