  1. I had a Rotosphere years back, sounded great
  2. I do solo gigs at wine bars and restaurants, jazzy stuff w/ a looper and a few vocal tunes. Larger rooms and patios I use a Behringer powered mixer and an EV loaded 1x12 guitar cab up on a pole. Smaller rooms I've started using this tiny Fender Acoustisonic 40 combo, it sounds full and has nice reverb.
  3. That's kickass. I had a 2 pup white 70s SG back in the day.
  4. I'm not sure. Looks like a 1 piece body!
  5. I've had a few in the past, they are great fun https://youtu.be/gdctJfyUKOM?si=LrOx2av8_vhvn-EG
  6. Volume, tone, and sustainer drive. Might rewire it 2 vol no tone, I wanna do the Ace toggle stutter, ha
  7. Thx Mitch! https://youtube.com/shorts/VQAKf4dpHfM?si=swajLOEk_De5TQpJ
  8. Came that way, I doubt I can tell the difference
  9. I nominated Cant Stop R&R to my Ded Mullet cohorts back in the day but was shot down. Great tune.
  10. RAWK!! Sorry I missed it, buddy
  11. Just don't talk to him at the movies.
  12. Did some horse trading yesterday and ended up with this beauty. I was gonna trade if the sustainer worked, I wasn't expecting this to play and sound so fantastic. Even the neck sustainer pup rings like a bell. This is a better guitar than all the Gibsons and most of the Hamers I've owned, even the custom shop 359 i had after mom died. Lots dings and bumps, no case. Not sure of the age, no serial number on a lot of 80s Burnys. I'm not a LP guy, but this thing is great and only 8.4 lbs.
  13. My 2nd Hamer (1st USA) was a 25th
  14. Road Song by Wes Montgomery is one of the easy jazz tunes I do on gigs;

  15. Thats killer. Are you at Carolina Beach?
  16. Fishbone is a combo of funk/ska/punk/hard rock. Same w/ Sublime. 80s era King Crimson obviously has a prog rock pedigree, but they also had a song based focus that leaned into new wave.
  17. My old Duotone did that, it was a mighty wind focused thru the 3 holes. Wow that sounded dirty...
  18. I came here for Brent Hinds, ha
  19. My smaller body Ibby AS50 is the best guitar I've ever owned;
  20. I'm not a huge Megadeth fan, but Holy Wars is one of the best metal tunes of all time. I've always dug this one too;
  21. Hells yeah, that's killer, esp. w/ the upgrades! I can't do a Jr, I need a neck pup.
  22. Soundgarden is in my top 5 rock bands. Chris Cornell was the greatest rock singer & songwriter of my generation.
  23. I like the look of those new ones. I had one of these older ones like Jim85, it was fun and good for the money but ultimately uninspiring. My Ibby Q52 retails for 5x the $200 ones, but really feels great, rings like a bell, and doesn't have the awkward tailpiece. The original Ibby alnicos sounded good, but I prefer the DiMarzios I put in.
  24. 335 is semi hollow and wont feedback as quick
