  1. 1 of 200. Sacrifices sometimes need to be made. No judgement here, man.
  2. So, the Sweetwater executive that previously stole your Gallagher is done playing with it and ready to pass it on to you for a discount? Sell some plasma or put on something pretty to work the streets for a night and keep both!
  3. Personally, I think it looks amazing. It's definitely not the perfectly lined up flame or quilted PRS top. I like the character of the grain you have going on there. However, you basically answered your own question with your first impressions. It's too expensive for you to be disappointed. Beyond looks, how does it feel/sound?
  4. Take your time man. Sorry you are dealing with that right now. I’ll step up and post something to keep the wolves at bay. Blue balls? No. Blue bass!
  5. I’ve asked for a wellness check to be performed at the Bogeywon place of residence. Hopefully pics of guitar soon after. If the police shoot him, I call dibs on our new guitar. You guys can have the Tele and the amps.
  6. That top is gorgeous. Did the seller put the original pickups back in? He says all electronics are stock, but then also comments that the burn on the back came from a careless moment with the soldering iron while swapping pickups.... Also, I have had some careless moments with a bass that picked up a ding, but never an oops I just burned my R9 moment. That must have been a bad day.
  7. https://reverb.com/item/42048173-gibson-gibson-noel-gallagher-j-150-2021-brown-2021 Just trying to help again.
  8. Awesome! We are getting a new guitar.
  9. It does not say sold out, but you can't add it to your cart. They have a serial number listed with it, so maybe on the way? Weird.
  10. Just do it. https://willcuttguitars.com/collections/electric-guitars/products/gibson-usa-es-335-figured-60s-cherry
  11. https://vintageandrareguitars.com/collections/latest-arrivals/products/1960-rickenbacker-360-f-mapleglo That's a great website.
  12. If you can find a reasonable dealer, the Kia is a good option. My experience was Kia dealers are still stuck in the old Kia mindset of taking advantage of selling crappy cars to people with financial issues.
  13. Have you played anything at Toneshop? It is a great group of guys that can steer you in a good direction. Their shop can easily set it up to your desires. The luthiers there are great. Go play everything in the store!
  14. Sell it. Get something bad ass. Post pics.
  15. Does it help to envision it as an un-air conditioned sweatshop with meth addicted workers toiling furiously away for their next fix?
  16. I like Couch designs, but the vinyl backing can be slippery of you have a guitar prone to neck dive. No slipping with Souldier. Another option: DogTired. They are made out of the same material that Century makes martial arts belts. Flexible but strong and no neck dive. https://dogtiredguitars.com/collections/straps-1
  17. Wildwood? Never mind, just saw the T-shirt in your pics. Ridiculous that I my geographical knowledge is based on guitar shops: Louisville, CO; Ft. Wayne, IN..... That is a sweet Tele!
  18. Yes, get them filed. Once you take care of it, you shouldn't have to deal with it again.
  19. The Matrix was right. We are a virus.
  20. This should be the perfect combo: daily driver, top down nice weather/weekender, Home Depot mulch hauler. https://www.autoblog.com/2021/06/04/aston-martin-db5-vantage-trio-for-sale/
  21. When my son was younger, we subscribed to Pley. It was like Netflix for legos. Monthly subscription priced according to the size of the builds. He could build a set, send it back and they would mail the next one in his toy wish list. Perhaps Bogeywon is on to something here and we do that but with guitars. Scratch an SG itch, send it back for a 335. Of course, I just looked and Pley is out of business. May not be a sound business plan after all.
  22. We did the drive in a 4dr Wrangler. No issues. The drive is gorgeous. There are lots of places to pull off and stop for photos. No guard rails, but it’s wide enough and not scary. Everyone is going slow and sightseeing. Denver Biscuit Company/Fat Sully’s pizza in s pretty solid on the food front.
  23. What part of the Jeep does he like? Off roading? Looks? If it is just a fun car with the top down, would a convertible satisfy his desires? Miatas, Mustangs and Camaros are in that price range with usually less miles. Plus, taking the top down is so much easier. This Jeep is a bit over budget, but less miles if he can drive a stick. https://www.vroom.com/inventory/jeep-wrangler-unlimited-2016-1C4BJWEGXGL291324 Or this one with less miles and about the same price as the one you posted. https://www.vroom.com/inventory/jeep-wrangler-unlimited-2015-1C4BJWDG3FL564636 Miata with 5K miles and only $25K https://www.vroom.com/inventory/mazda-mx-5-miata-2016-JM1NDAD76G0118152 Mustang 'vert $27k and 33K miles https://www.carvana.com/vehicle/1733433
  24. Just a few comments about Fender's solid rosewood necks. They feel flat out amazing. Very smooth and fast. However, expect it to have to deal with a bit of fret sprout initially. Once you address it, you shouldn't have to deal with it again, but most seem to have it in the beginning to some degree or another.
  25. It probably would. Any dealer will void warranties if possible. but you have the ability to flash back and forth to the original setting if you needed to take it in for service. Or just get the manual transmission.
