  1. Dang these kids are smoking me left and right
  2. HR is good but too angsty for me. Nervous Breakdown with Kieth Morris is the best
  3. Exquisitely played indeed. Thanks for sharing!
  4. I’m not a motorcycle guy at all but that is just cool looking
  5. OP is fubar. He went directly from getting scammed to going to a random site and punching in his full name any random place he could. I’m sure if he had to enter his credit card info to post here he would have
  6. Either I’m reading this incorrectly or you have a wildly incorrect understanding of what an inch is
  7. If you didn’t tell me I’d think that’s original in super clean condition. Looks really good. Nice work
  8. Thats a really lice looking Les Paul. Looks like some beautiful cabinetry behind it too
  9. lol that’s not how it works you gotta thwap it with keys and pop it in the freezer and whatnot
  10. My R9 is pretty damn excellent in every way but I don’t like relics and try to keep my stuff in good shape. I’m not a touring superstar or anything so my stuff will never look like a “relic”
  11. I’m sure they’ve heard quite a bit of that but the sound of $10K per Les Paul must have stolen their attention
  12. No I preordered and they haven’t shipped yet. I’ll post a thread when I get it and play around with it a bit
  13. I don’t even want to see it lol. I’m sure it’s amazing and over $500
  14. Yellow is my favorite color for a strat. My dad used to have an old 80s or 90s strat in “graffiti yellow” and I loved the way it looked. I ordered this body from warmoth and had it and a neck finished by a forum member from here who I haven’t seen in a long time. It has a warmoth neck but I ended up putting this neck from an old American deluxe strat on it I get bonus tone points from my iconic wiring under the hood
  15. Classic. My first ever pedal was a black Russian Big Muff. I think it cost $40 when new and now they go for about $200 on average. I also have a “tall font” green Russian Muff which is really worth a lot of money now at your gig I would recommend setting it up to where the big muff is louder than “unity gain”. It sounds best when it’s goosing an already hot tube amp, but that will also keep you from disappearing with the scooped mids
  16. Look how square and sharp the corners are. Looks like they got about 80% of the way there and called it a day
  17. I don’t think Gibson was doing the custom art historic in 1990 so if the first digit in the serial is 0 then it’s probably a 2000
  18. Ok that’s a good description to work from. Basically when you have an intermittent problem which appears and disappears with physical pressure like that it’s usually a dry or broken solder joint. Judging by multiple functions of the foot switch it’s a relay operated guy so it may not necessarily be a solder joint directly related to the foot switch itself a product like this is basically all made by machines on the PCB itself and then probably some humans wired up the actual connections to the jacks or possibly daughter boards etc. any faulty connection to input/output jacks or power jack are likely to cut the entire signal on a pedal like this. This also happens to be a part of the production process particularly susceptible to error generally speaking so I’d start looking at solder joints in those areas
  19. Without looking up the serial number it looks like an early “reissue” but I wouldn’t suggest that being “early” is desirable in this case. The specs are like what you’d get on a USA Jr. This is not the same as the guitar in your link, which is built with a much higher degree of historical accuracy, one piece body, correct tuners and logos and shapes etc. This example has also had a headstock repair and the pickup cavity must have been routed to accept that humbucker. It might be a really great guitar, someone apparently really liked it. I would only buy it for CHEAP but who knows that could be a really amazing guitar
