Body is a little smaller, and that chamfer on the lower bout is quite pronounced.

Straight up carbon copy

"That lower horn is turned in a bit more."

Leo Fender did a shitty job of copying PRS.

At this point, this thread should be merged into the unpopular opinions thread.

I know. I see it. But damn.

Ugh.  So I ordered a new guitar through Sweetwater and they called the next day to advise that it was not in stock indefinitely and they are in touch with the manufacturer (yeah right) on getting eta. 

So I could wait or try somewhere else which may be the situation.

Guitar power consumer tip:  Over half the shit on Reverb is brand new and sold by reputable retailers and e-tailers with good return policies.  Use its search to find the same instrument being sold by someone else, then look up their contact info and contact them directly to negotiate a better deal without Reverb being a man in the middle and taking a cut.

So the one reverb listing has an ETA of 8/23 when I contacted Chicago music exchange to inquire.

What are you looking to get?

Cool guitar.  I’ll see if I can find one.  Supply sucks right now, and this being a left hand model may just make it extra scarce.

Thank you. I'm resigned to waiting it out.

I didn't find any through my normal means.  

Playing a Les Paul strung upside down would definitely have a quality of uniqueness about it.

It’s everywhere. That JM PRS was on order for over a year. I didn’t even remember I paid it in full. Don’t substitute something you love for something in stock

Weird choice for a boutique amp builder to choose now to spread covid disinformation but whatever I guess

What a dipshit.

The older kid just bought a refinished Japanese dual humbucker Jaguar.  I haven't plugged it in yet, but I played it last night, and it's not bad.  I'll try to snap a picture later.

I hear you.  The hard part for me is that I FINALLY found a lefty I really wanted and it coincided with a time I was ready to move on from a couple of other guitars I own. So I have that excitement of placing the order to then having to wait and not knowing how long. 

It is pretty sick.  Push/pull coil splitting.  Push/pull to go from active/passive.

I don't play 7s anymore but the 7 string versions are at longer scale. That was a nice touch.

Yup, that's legit.  Well done.

A Croatia post for@Chad Fuck

We got to this beach bar too late to catch the band last night, but I did inspect the gear to verify that the Telecaster is Deej approved.

Live music has been the biggest disappointment of this trip. There's hardly any to be found. Not even street performers. Maybe once we get down the coast. 20220702_012508.jpg

Is the pic not showing up?

It shows, I just can't see the number of pickguard screws.

Watching random music on Twitter feed and boom! This sweet gold strat pops up! Sounds so good too 6DE15297-DE6A-4428-ADBD-46E8A5675086.thumb.jpeg.87221b8df150196a97387e897f67b560.jpeg

Dammit. Both those guitars I was looking at sold. Lesson learned.

Ok boys and girls. We are getting a new guitar. One smartass comment from the wife about the number of guitars I have, combined with her ordering a new chair we don't need......

It has kickass horse shoe fret markers. 551c543cc6d170a982dc46475c0495e1.jpg60c411afdddacc95d2d50a87a6f19482.jpg

Don’t forget to put some strap locks on it.

I now buy everything I can through Alamo Music.  I got a guy; he will hook you up but even more so if you mention me because I've spent and referred so much to him.  DM me for his name and cell.

That is gorgeous

Stupid Deal Of the HOUR at musiciansfriend today. Another shot at the blu3 G&L Placentia Tele type thing guitar for $250, and other stuff. 

 

$250? Damn. I just bought a new baitcasting reel this morning for that. 


Why does that matter?

Fair.

But it would be cool to be able to play one of those things.
