  1. I've been happy with the discounts at shipnerd.com. I'm guessing another version of pirateship. Anyone compared the two?
  2. This is an amazing guitar! I wish I had the cash. I've been watching it since Dave put it on Reverb.
  3. 2005 Historic Collection 1956 Les Paul Goldtop Guitar featuring many upgrades. The bridge and tail piece have been replaced with a Faber master kit in aged nickel with locking studs (installed and setup by Paradise Guitars in Beloit, WI). The neck pickup is a 57 Tyson and the bridge pickup is a Zero-Hum Kinman Bright Clean Gen-3 v2 (amazing bridge pickup!). The guitar is in excellent condition showing natural cosmetic wear. This is not a pristine example, but rather a road-worn, loved guitar. No breaks, no repairs. The neck depth at the 1st fret is .926" and 1.027" at the 12th. The guitar weighs in at 8lbs 7.6oz on my scale. The guitar was previously owned by the legendary guitarist Bob Britt; I purchased the R6 from a friend of Bob's. Bob has worked with Leon Russell, Bob Dylan, the Dixie Chicks, and John Fogerty to name a few. His autograph is on the back of the headstock. The case is in very good condition. The LP comes with everything shown in photos. $2800 PP no fees ($2900 PP with fees) plus actual shipping. For detailed, hi-res photos, email me: atomicwash AT yah** dot com
  4. Lightly used Carr Lincoln combo amp in near mint condition. Design based on a 60's Vox AC10. I can't find a blemish on it. No issues. The speaker is a Celestion Neo V-Type. This speaker is a great match for the Lincoln. The amp weighs in at a very reasonable 37lbs. If the Neo speaker is not your thing, I'll take $100 off and ship the amp with no speaker. I replaced the grill cloth in a sharp oxblood with gold pinstripes - Very attractive next to the black tolex. Lot's of great online reviews from Vintage Guitar and Premier Guitar to name a couple. This sale includes the original footswitch and a nice padded Carr cover. $1600 PP no fees ($1650 PP with fees) plus actual shipping. For more photos, email me: atomicwash AT yah** dot com
  5. I've downsized my amps over the last 20 years from an AC30 in a flight case to an AC15 head/112 cabinet. More trips, less weight. My wife is using the new HW AC10. Fortunately, I really like the Celestion Neo V. It plays well with my amps & sound. My secret weapon is the Vox MV50 AC as a backup amp. I make sure that my combos all have a 1/4" coming off the speaker and then I put a 3' speaker extension cable in the small bag with the MV50. I could gig with the MV50 if I had to. Aging really sucks, but I'm not ready to give up my fun.
  6. From my 1994 T51. $110 shipped to the contiguous states. Reverb link.

  8. Another stunning SC!
  9. Thanks all! The pickup tops are now parallel to the Jaguar's top. The flat and round Harbor Freight files worked great, especially since I have a HF nearby. It only needed a wee bit and there were no strange chem-smells. A good day.
  10. That's why I asked the question! The wee bits.
  11. I have Jaguar with a pickup opening that needs to be opened up a bit. The pickup cover fits through, but it's tight and sits at a bit of an angle. Does anyone have a method or a tool that would shave the pickup opening?
  12. Mike, Take care of yourself as a top priority. Sending positive vibes. Dan
  13. BingBong did a live recording with a limited audience in 2019, both audio and video. It took us a while to finish the recordings. Some friends rent rehearsal warehouse space and they have a collaborative studio. We hired the sound engineer from the studio and brought in a video team. The landlord limited us to 25 guests (he thought we were younger than 50ish?!?!?). I cowrote Catch My Breath with a bandmate around 1990 and the song was brought back to life with my current band a couple years ago. It's a nice change from our powerpop tempo'd music in a live set and has received nice comments from listeners. I chose this song because it's one where our singer doesn't play guitar... it's all Shishkov 0059 with Charlotte at the bridge. I'm playing through a Carr Hammerhead. The effects are a Barber Half Gainer & Keeley Red Dirt OD, Strymon El Capistan delay, and I hit the Boss Harmonizer set to detune a couple times. Brian's drums are a recovered '64 Rogers kit and Julie is playing a Teye bass through a house bass amp. I don't have info on the mics or recording gear. It was a fun show and we ended up with 9 songs; we're releasing a video here and there via our email & FB page during the live music shutdown (C19). We'll probably do a CD run at some point. Link to BingBong.
  14. I've slowly been pawn shopping for components around my phonograph... receiver... and today the speakers. 1st spin? The Pretenders first album. Damn that's a great bunch of tunes. 1st tune? Kid. What a great solo.
  15. Wowza. That's all I can say.
  16. ^^^ Beautiful top. Wowza!
  17. In the winter I run Aprilaire at the max plus a humidifier on low 24/7. I still do not attain a solid 40%. That's WI.
  18. I've never seen RUSH before and we bought some nose bleed seats in Chicago. Hopefully we'll enjoy the ambience.
