  1. I’d like to see the Museum but the Hall itself is a joke… a bad joke at that. I’ll restrain myself and STFU before I say something that gets me banned or just pisses someone off. No need for that 😎🎸🎶
  2. Curious how these sound as a recording solution….
  3. I need to find my first guitar instructor in Delaware when I was 17….he was a HUGE influence on me. Plus he got me high in the bathroom lol. Hey, it was the late 70s/early 80s.
  4. I just finished mastering mine. What file format do you prefer, @kizanski, WAV or MP3?
  5. @veatchwas not your most recent a Modified Super-C? Or am I mistaken…?
  6. I haven’t played a Daytona but I assume the bridge pickup is connected to a tone pot? If so, turn it down, way down if needed. If it is not connected to the tone pot, make that happen. If you need something darker and/or beefier, contact @JGravelin. He can wind a Strat pickup that is strongly p90 in character. That won’t be harsh and will rock.
  7. Bless you for helping her. That Ric is beautiful and so is the acoustic. GLWTS
  8. GLWTS…interesting that the neck DC resistance is greater than the bridge. BITD, the builders just grabbed pickups out of a bucket. I do love a good grey bottom Strat bridge pickup compared to the 50s winds. Stronger and bolder.
  9. As recently as a decade ago it was always 3 guitars on a gig, one set up in open G for slide. If I was gigging now, it would be 2 guitars, a combo amp, and no more than 3 pedals. I continual to get more minimalistic at jams and usually am happiest with a nice guitar plugged into a nice amp that is cranked into distortion. So that means an attenuator. No pedals usually. When there is a pedal involved it is a tape echo like a Belle Epoch Deluxe a fuzz, or maybe a treble booster. But usually nothing but a cable. I do like an EP preamp as an always on thing. But for me, a really nice guitar into a really nice amp is all that’s needed for blues, soul, and blues-rock. As I age, less is more.
  10. 5 (at least at this point in time) if 0117 materializes…
  11. I have used the MCC and believe it IS Gorgamyte.
  12. @threehole, dibs. Let me know if you wanna sell. Astounding is right.
  13. @Disturber, according to an HFC post “question: The neck and middle pickups in my MIII are Seymour Duncan SP 90-2N and the bridge is Seymour Duncan SP 90-3B”. My local luthier is very good and could easily fill those holes. But that price needs to drop.
  14. I looked them up on an old HFC thread last month and didn’t save the screenshot @Disturber. Yeah, the holes suck in that top. He sent me a pic with the custom pickguard in place, but that was meh. He needs to lower the price accordingly for the holes and pickups. That Ultimate top is beautiful, tho.
  15. Ok…a couple nice Newports offered here, but I changed my mind for now on that model. I really want a M3 or a Monaco Monaco. Tally Pro and Monaco Superpro are still in the mix too. So still searching.
  16. @zorrow, I loved working with you on “Ashes”. Will spin this album. 😎✌️
  17. @Case, what is the neck profile? My 1980 was way too thin and skinny…is this one like that or more like a Vintage Carve?
  18. I have several awaiting mastering. I’ll finish my “retirement song” and send it. Marking my calendar now.
  19. Our @bubs_42 def has the doc’s attention. Brothers in tone.
  20. Somehow in the December retirement prep hubbub, I missed this. Is this still open?
