Shawn Posted October 2, 2008 Report Posted October 2, 2008 they look like science fiction! Yeah, I'm sure that's the point...for anyone that doesn't recognize Giger, these images might help: Quote
7/4 Posted October 2, 2008 Author Report Posted October 2, 2008 (edited) they look like science fiction! Yeah, I'm sure that's the point...for anyone that doesn't recognize Giger, these images might help: Oh yeah...they're classic. Who can forget Work 219: Landscape XX? You post a link to a graphic Shawn, I'm not gonna do it. The guitars look a cooler than most guitars with graphics on 'em. Edited October 2, 2008 by 7/4 Quote
7/4 Posted October 6, 2008 Author Report Posted October 6, 2008 2 6v6s, a 5y3, a 6sl7 and a 6sn7 (those last two are old octals) - even weirder is my Knight amp (a rebuilt PA from the 1940s, I think): 2 6v6s, a 6z7 (good luck finding more of these); a 6J7 and a 5Z3 - I won't be. You might. Quote
Joe G Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 Went into Elderly Instruments today... feeling some guitar lust right about now. Quote
BFrank Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 Don't know Elderly.......are they good? I Googled their website, they seem to have lots of stuff. Quote
Uncle Skid Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 Extremely cool store, with LOTS of stuff. Joe should know better! Quote
7/4 Posted October 26, 2008 Author Report Posted October 26, 2008 Went into Elderly Instruments today... feeling some guitar lust right about now. Tell us about it. I've stayed out of stores this year...I don't have any money to spend, plus I have plenty of guitars to play here. . Quote
Shawn Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 I'm still pretty happy with my guitar...it's an Amp that I need. Quote
Joe G Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 (edited) Went into Elderly Instruments today... feeling some guitar lust right about now. Tell us about it. http://elderly.com/vintage/items/40U-4400.htm I actually went to Elderly around 2004 to scope out a Hofner Verythin (Classic, iirc). Based on what I had read, it seemed like the guitar for me. The one they had didn't feel right, however. I ended up buying a Jazzica Custom instead, which has been a good archtop. Well, Saturday afternoon I stopped in with no agenda, grabbed the pictured guitar off the wall, and it said, "Take me home!". First I have to try it through an amp - Saturday afternoon is not a good day to venture in the amp room, what with all the wannabe masters of metal in there wanking away. So, hmmm. I've got an Ibanez, a Stromberg, and a flight case that I can sell.... Edited October 26, 2008 by Joe G Quote

Hmmmmm....I'm in town on Wed, you might want to grab it before then... Quote
7/4 Posted October 27, 2008 Author Report Posted October 27, 2008 So, hmmm. I've got an Ibanez, a Stromberg, and a flight case that I can sell.... I went through that twice last year...I came home and started calculating how much equipment to sell to buy a new guitar - and then didn't do it! Quote
BFrank Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 Anyone have experience with loopers? I have been looking at the BOSS RC-2, but keep hearing that I should stay away from a single-pedal looper - too complicated. So, that leads me to the BOSS RC-20XL and the DigiTech JamMan - both bigger and more expensive than I was looking for. I'm conFUSED. Quote

Terrible sound quality but very useful as a practice tool. Quote

BFrank Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 You guys have the RC-20 or RC-20XL? ... and is there a difference (particularly sound quality)? Quote
7/4 Posted November 13, 2008 Author Report Posted November 13, 2008 RC-20 I don't know about the other model. dB Quote
Sundog Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 RC-20 for me as well. Not up on the "XL" version. Quote
BFrank Posted November 14, 2008 Report Posted November 14, 2008 I'll have to do some research to find out what the "XL" is all about. Quote
7/4 Posted November 14, 2008 Author Report Posted November 14, 2008 I've belonged to this list for years: http://www.loopers-delight.com/loop.html, if anybody can answer your questions, they can. dB Quote
michel1969 Posted November 14, 2008 Report Posted November 14, 2008 Vintage guitars for everyone...You 'll find not everything, but many incredible models. And pictures are fine. I don't think they are for sale !!!!!!! Dave's guitars Quote
