  1. There a so many real tones needed to be explored on tube amps for me. I think I need an iPad to explore them all. Just had my BSM range master guarrantee repaired the other day. Top service from BSM! Just want to mention.
  2. It ever looks so good in red! Good luck with the sale.
  3. Amp distortion is so good. They built a huge amount of technique to copy it.
  4. Brilliant! I think it even had a market.
  5. What is cork sniffing when Hamer buyers can't wait to swap the standard SD 59s out?
  6. ...and then there is: "Tone comes through fingers". Even a so called crapy guitar can sound good or uniquely good to someone's ears when played the right way. - Masonite made Danelectro, already mentioned - Blockboard with an old fireplace piece of oak made Brian May Red Special guitar played through a modded old transistor radio circuitry, the Deacy amp. Created the tone in Bohemian Rhapsody!
  7. Obviously the police is mot your friend. So now you have various options. - consult an advocate - ask the policeman's boss - make the story public so the police are being faced their disinterest. - ask the NSA, they know everything (joke) An Ebay case is another option that possibly would require any transaction number.
  8. I frequently swap between AC-15 with blue Celestion, a cannabis fitted VAC 25, an old Silvertone, and Rockman XPR. It's all a matter of taste for a certain phase.
  9. If Montelovesco buys my Tally in a month or two I might have to ask Ronny Scheithauer to build another Bo Diddley on Double Ds.
  10. Where is the middle pickup in that chart. I think it means a different setup.
  11. If not a motherbucker I'd sid it's a daughterbucker. How can you wire them?
  12. All in all they are great guitars. This one looks really nice too. However, I'm not selling mine. It sounds and plays fantastic.
  13. Wow, that looks like a big backlog. When will it be done?
  14. Ok, I think I wait for cheap resales on Amazon. Only a few bands manage to top best selling albums. The 4th had been a runner for me for a while. I still love it. The real Boston sound had not been on the first album. Actually, it developed over time. The Rockman modules were in the 80s. I still love to play the XPR rack size preamp.I'm pretty much into Carl Verheyen right now. The new album has a lot to discover. The 9th song has a fiddle in there, I first thought it were a guitar played through a vintage amp.
  15. Are you happy with the new Boston? I haven't seen one positive review yet.
  16. Zenmindbeginner scored one too a while ago. He created some great sounds with it on Soundcloud.
  17. Wow! This forum spans a long history and experience. Ever has something to surprise.
  18. Wait until they are 17 and 14. You could easily win a 2 year buy no guitar contest.
  19. Forget! Just for the headstock.
  20. Question is to build a workhorse not a fashion guitar. The guitar in any means should be practical and cover a wide sound range. It should stay in tune whatever abuse gets to it. It should be robust, solid, and neck break safe. Finally, the price should make it a proud dings and dongs collector for no headaches. Simply a whorehorse.
  21. This with:- stressed fat neck (would allow for a cheaper maple neck rather than mahogany) - Phat Cat pickups - checkerboard logo with "HFC Workhorse" inline with the checkerboard - one and only one color to keep it simple - Schaller or Kluson locking tuners - never mind a hardshell case Wilkinson trem could be an option, but requires straight string leads on the headstock. The option would compete with the body string through sustain block. The Miller Beer shape would be great to, just without the branding. It would require a proper but simple design though. Pickups are personal taste. Therefore humbucker routes for bridge and neck seems to be essential. The actual pickups it comes with are not that important, but should have resale value. So, the classic SD 59 set would do the trick.
  22. Guitarwise I bought the Scheithauer Custom Bo Diddley Charlie Christian.
