james90 Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 after reading the manual and finding out about all the fancy sound modifications this guitar can do... couldn't resist also, some hi res pretty sure the guild is a '73...definitely not one of the 50's ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 That shits all over your mansons, wow. How does she play compared? not better or worse really, but it's definitely different. it's a bit more tolerant of low action, and the neck is... well, I'm not sure how to describe it. it's not really rounded like a Fender C shape, but that's probably what it's closest to. very comfortable either way. the only thing is that the finish is a bit sloppy up close (some of the color is on the binding, but just slightly). the other one I have also has some minor flaws, but no big deal really the sound (and looks) are probably the best thing about it though.

Crowella Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Taken wif my ph0ne. My cabinet is finally here. Shame it won't be much use for a few months or until I build a small amp for practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheddatom Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I thought you already had an aguilar? Or is it that you've decided on the amp you want, just haven't bought it yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowella Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I thought you already had an aguilar? Or is it that you've decided on the amp you want, just haven't bought it yet? I had a choice of buy the amp first, or buy the cab. I chose the cab because of the bargain I got it at. I can't get the Aguilar yet not because I don't have the money, but I need to have my money for travelling overseas. If I was able to sell my gear to buy the Aguilar, I would but I don't have anything I can really sell. I use all my gear quite often. Only thing on my selling list is my Fender Rumble which I'm selling to offset the cost of the cab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheddatom Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 fair enough! You might be able to drive that cab with a shitty PA amp or something - whatever you can get your hands on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted July 11, 2012 Author Share Posted July 11, 2012 pedalboard as of a few minutes ago. it is currently incomplete, as 1. it's a pedalboard. it'll never be complete 2. i lost all my extra power connectors not really the ideal layout - especially the tuner, but i suppose it's easy enough to read.

Mobius Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Pretty good, how are you finding the WH5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 Pretty good, how are you finding the WH5? it's great - for the most part it has the same effects, but it's worth it for the polyphonic setting alone. can't remember the other differences - i know it's true bypass, but to be honest, the rest of my setup sounds exactly the same as it did with the WH4 nice that they listen to the customers at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord MFC Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 It works off a normal power supply! The only reason I want one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly. Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Loving it so far, can really pick out the notes well through distortion, very clear but then can get nice and dirty if need be. Only problem is because of the bridge my palm is ripped to shreds cause of the end of the strings, might need to put tape over them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic. Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I love the look of that bridge! Shame it's so lethal though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted July 21, 2012 Author Share Posted July 21, 2012 so yes... it's pretty cool, and incredibly loud...lots of different sounds available, although the fuzz control doesn't really change the sound until it's at about 3 o clock. will do a demo shortly. also.... 3 piece maple neck, but it still sounds like a great LP to me. plus the headstock is less likely to break off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impulse 101 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Shitty cell phone pics of my 1986 Fender '62 AVRI. The neck was refretted and a new nut was cut by Pete Skermetta, formerly of Tyler guitars. I installed a set of Suhr ML standard pickups. I've never owned a better playing or sounding Strat and I've owned a LOT of Strats... I'm loving having a passive 3 single coil strat for the first time in 20 years, it's been too long.

Dave. Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 hnnng Is that a Gilmore switch a see? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impulse 101 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Nope. There is a Fishman powerbridge and powerchip preamp on this guitar. I don't use it much but the Fishman is an excellent sounding bridge and I never break strings on it. The switch chooses between piezo and mags, or a blend.

IntelligentAl Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Ahhh is the Fishman the saddles? Because I was just gonna ask if those were replacement saddles Also is it just the angle of the picture or is the top E string really close to the edge of the fretboard? Very nice though, love the wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
