GAS


Dub-T-123

Recommended Posts

I was going to buy a Cort Sunset but who knows when i will be able to try one since it is a brand new model.

 

I recently sold my Casino and will replace it with an Epiphone Wildkat since these are priced at $300 and I actually like Epiphone P90's and the main thing is I like the neck on Wildkat's much, much better.

I saw a video about Cort guitars and how bad the working conditions are at their factory in China and I think we should boycott them but I also realize that just about everything is made in China these days and probably under similar conditions. Still, the cheap price is a result of the exploitation of their workers and I don't want to support that.

 

Rocketman - HHNNGGGGG

 

Bonzoboy - Are you after a silicon or germanium Fuzz Face?

-Gibson J45

-Fender Jeff Beck Stratocaster

The one I think I'll most likely get is this:

A Fender Nashville B Bender Telecaster, so long as it doesn't have one of those ugly v shaped necks.

I'm jonesing for a Jazzmaster, an all tube Fender Champ or Princeton, another Les Paul, SG Standard, an EHX Electric Mistress, any pedal by Visual Sound, a Digitech Whammy pedal, Vox AC15 and AC4TV, Marshall Class 5, a Clapton Mid Boost kit for my strat, some sort of 7 string guitar, and also buying back my Ibanez PL2660 (rare V guitar Jackson sued Ibanez over for being too similar to the Rhoads Custom).

Lol those are some pretty low standards. The quality of their work looked terrible.

 

Jk man that's cool you should post some pics of your project.

 

So did you have to order it straight from China?

 

I've got some DIY GAS too.. I want to build a delay and a few fuzzes (Fuzzrite, Bender, Os Mutantes fuzz)

The plant is in Korea, but I was not aware of that situation.

 

I bet 90% of workplaces in the far east do not have fair working conditions.
