That ain’t you…. 🙄😂

A name I recognize over the last 20+ years I’ve been here. Godspeed, JohnnyB…

I wonder how this compares to the PRS HDRX amp…. 🤔

Nice! I thought about the Vega when I upgraded my Mirages. Ended up going with the Mann vintage trem. It’s a fantastic option and big upgrade over the stock Wilkinson unit, which I still have on my Mirage Maple top. Maybe I’ll try the Vega on the maple top and see how it compares to the Mann bridge… 🤔

THIS…. This is one of the most valuable pieces of information I’ve ever read.

Typical mid 90’s Hamer medium C like pretty much everything between 95-97..?

‘93…. Thin neck…?

🍆🍆🍆

That’s the one! Chops for days…

If I remember correctly, he was in a bind and sold it cuz he needed the cash pretty quickly. I’d have to go back and search the archives for his post. But I don’t think he was supper happy about having to let it go. I watched his Duncan demo vids a bunch of times. Killer player and that Monaco is tits.

Listened to that on my commute this morning. Cool story. Made me wonder if that guitar would change my mind on the JB. Tried many times to like that pickup and it just never did it for me.

Pics of the aforementioned Tele and gig bag…

Damn…. The guy behind the guy. RIP, sir.

Only one has the correct headstock….

Didn’t realize you were married to women before…. But I get it. I don’t miss my first wife AT ALL thanks to my second wife. More to your point, I don’t think I’d miss selling guitars if I switched to the keytar… 😜

Did you use this with your Friedman IR pedal/preamps? I was wondering how well these would work with my IR-J or if something like a Quilter would be more appropriate for a portable/travel rig.

This is great to hear as I paid way more for my IR-J than you’re selling here. #validation These things are legit. Somebody buy this….

Maybe 4 if 0123 ever happens….

Nice! Congrats on the score. I played a similar one a few months ago. Alder bod with maple cap. A really great guitar. When they announced them I knew I had to try one. The wife and I were up in Milwaukee for our anniversary in November and there was a place 10 minutes from the hotel that had one, along with some Tom Andersons and a Knaggs Kenai. Of the guitars I played, the Oso was the most comfortable and the body contours hugged me perfectly. The roasted neck was super smooth and slick. In the end, the Oso Had a smaller neck than I wanted and I fell in love with the asymmetrical back shape of the Knaggs. But, that Oso was a damn fine piece of gear.
