topekatj Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 No affiliation. Damn nice top and mahogany back. Per the listing, I hate it when there's puck (sic) scratching on the top of a guitar -- these SHOULD NOT be used to play hockey! Mucho finish loss along neck edge (Hameritis?).

Sugartune Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Nice. Unfortunately not Birdseye, but a very nice quilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Haynie Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 That neck can hopefully be refinished, and for the price there should not be an issue like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.bandini Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Someone couldn't resist picking at the hameritis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crunchee Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 I'm not crazy about the mini-switch being on the guitar instead of a control as per normal...and the fact that they didn't mention it, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HamerCustomEr Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Renegade switch and ghastly finish loss on the neck would be enough even if this guitar were priced much lower... but "puck scratching"? That's too much, even considering I don't know what it is. Maybe, it's this: "Oh, puck! I scratched my guitar again! Now how am I going to post it for a rip-off price on Reverb? Oh, might as well try anyway." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't even want to get involved with something I'm going to have to start repairing,all the more so at that price. Plus like you mention when people leave out information about the guitar [MODS] that are obvious, true or not it makes me wonder OK what other surprises I'm I going to find after I get the guitar. The neck finish was removed, picked off, cant believe that was just worn off from playing. If this guitar was in excellent condition and all straight with no issues it would be a nice one to have for sure., but now I think.........................
