  1. As they say, health forces sale. This is a '95 Eclipse 12 in very good shape. I waited a long time to get my mitts on one and it was well used but never abused, came with me to every show for years but was only used on a few songs every night. It was originally owned by the always tasteful Stevie mf'in Clay of Grumpy Old Men and I bought it through the mighty Greg Platzer. Evidently, Steve and I shared the opinion that the big chrome pickup surrounds on Eclipses were a tad too blingy. Greg fixed that with some classy, custom tortoiseshell rings and TRC. I fixed the balance issue commonly found on 12'ers with pearloid tuner buttons (originals in case) which also classed it up a little and those couple of ounces really make a difference. No breaks, major repairs or stories. There is one eraser-sized dimple (I tried to photograph it and couldn't) above the pickups on the front. When I bought it, I commented to Greg that I now had to search for coolerbetterfaster pickups. He recommended I live with the stock ones for a while. Good call. All the classic 12'er tones are in there. No regrets. $1,350 or near offer plus actual shipping. Shipping estimate provided once we have a deal. PPFF preferred, my bank isn't set up for Venmo, etc. CONUS only, packed to withstand a regional thermonuclear conflict 🤣. I'd GREATLY prefer a meet 'n' greet to hand it off if you're within a day trip driving distance of Dayton, OH This is a nice one, I hate to see it go. E-me at tomteriffic1952@woh.rr.com

  2. Hi Guys, longtime member here, even longer time lurker As the want ads used to say, health forces sale and these are gonna hurt. Up for sale is my red '93 Special in very good shape, no breaks or major repairs. This was my "short notice/sit in/go jamming" guitar for years. If I didn't know what I'd be walking into this is what I'd grab. Trouble was, bar neon, refrigerator compressors, etc. didn't play nice with P-90's. So I had the mighty Greg Platzer put in a set of Firebird pickups, like you'd find on an Eclipse. Same rude tone and buzz problem solved. There are a couple or three dents/dimples on the bottom rear corner that can be felt, but not photographed very well and there's a finish chip up at the tip of he headstock as shown. Minimal fretwear, nice comfy medium C neck. OHSC has some nicks and scrapes but is structurally sound and everything works HFC good buddy price: $1,100 or near offer, plus actual shipping. PPFF preferred., My bank isn't set up for Venmo, etc. CONUS only, shipping to be quoted after a deal is struck. Packed to withstand a regional thermonuclear conflict. 🤣 Santellavision's got nothin' on me! I'd GREATLY prefer an in person hand-off if within a day trip driving distance of Dayton, OH.

  4. Yeah, I know, but if you don't ask... Any other Hamer baritone model would also suffice. Or, how about some nice pics of Hamer baritone guitars.

  5. I assume a few of you have noticed Sina-Drums and her wonderful drum videos of mostly covering music with her own drumming. Now she's has bought her own studio for keeping handmade music alive. Best decision she could make I think.

  6. I really enjoyed that. From some one who's been there. Reinforced my recording beliefs. I didn't auto tune/time align anything. Eq and add some effects. I had a sign that said "Shit in =Shit out, Go Home and Practice" The other guy across town would autotune, time align, a bunch of other gizmo's. He stayed really busy. I shuttered my doors and went fishing!!!

  14. I just want to say, some nice choices in there. Not selling, just cheering you on! I support your interest in the early 90s LPC. They are fabulous. They are not hard to find in conus but dont know about the uk. i was looking for 335s for a while, then revisiting various mij versions, and then moved to search for and did find a 347. Great guitar. Just throwing out another target for you - Best of luck in your search!

  21. I LOVE SROs….King of the Alnicos! I found this somewhat confusing…I have always red that SRV was all about Super Reverbs, Vibroverbs,etc. mixed with a Marshall. When I saw his exhibit at the Grammy museum there was also a tweed Bassman and a plexi stack that was beat to crap. I didn’t know he played through a Twin Reverb. And the EVs I heard he liked were 12Ls…or so I apparently wrongly assumed. Further, Tommy Shannon went on record saying that SRV fell immediately in love with JB’s Dumble and recorded all tracks on Texas Flood through ā€œMother Dumbleā€ straight in…. SRV was so very good. I refused to play a Strat for 20 years because every time I did, all I would do is play his licks and emulate him. And that didn’t happen on any other guitar and I wanted to craft my own sound. Now I grab a Strat and launch into his songs and just giggle. I’m able to do it now.

  25. My brother has it. He's a couple of years older than me, and was first diagnosed about 20 years ago. His wife recently had to move him into a memory care nursing facility. She has to sell their house so they can afford the care. Since my brother is incapable of understanding anything and can't express himself at all, I have to sign the documents on his behalf.
