Oh gorgeous. My electric is a '70 Tele and I absolutely love it.

 

[nipples]

That looks amazing.

Taking this opportunity to post my guitar I got a few weeks ago

Gretsch pro jet with bigsby, got her second hand from craigslist, in the shops it's around $500

Mine came with a new p90 neck pickup as well as the original humbucker, new roller bridge as well as the original tuneomatic, new strings, new locking sperzel tuners instead of the originals, new custom made pickguard, nice fur lined hardshell locking case

I payed $350. Deal of the century. :afro:

I very nearly went for a white mexican strat instead so you can guess that I like yours dal

 

[Lyric Zulu]

That guitar is awesome, I was looking into getting the road worn Tele but I opted to get Special Edition koa finish Tele.

 

[Dalamari]

$350 for that Gretsch? Holy shit Crush very nice!

 

[nipples]

How much did you pay Dalamari?

 

[Dalamari]

$950.

that is one weird looking guitar crush

I've been thinking about getting a new guitar myself but I'm more into rock/metal so I'm looking more at the Ibanez S series, particularly these two:

but I haven't decided yet.

wull bro, if u want br00tal METAL gitar thn u ned a bc rich wArlock!!1! theres' nothing mroe metals thna that!!!

I'm joking, never buy a BC Rich of any type. Ever. They suck balls.

Ibanez is good choice people think they are purely for metal, but they do got a pretty wide range of sounds. Everyone says they're bad, but they are all retards. I like Ibanez, but they're no Gibson!

 

[lefty]

I play ibanez. But I play bass.

 

[Yorick]

Ibanez are nice. For the cost of one you really can't beat them, in my experience. My bass was one and goddamnit I still kick myself for selling it. I got an Acoustic Ibanez about a year ago that I love too.

 

[Hazar]

this is my current one for reference:

which I replaced the bridge pickup with some diMarzio awesome pickups

I want a good 6 string with a good tremolo system D:

Ibanez's just seem so uninspiring for me to play, and there some stupid design cheats with their stuff that I really don't like (To be fair many other companies do them. Ex. building a bridge that isn't perfectly straight so you can have a lower action, but you sacrifice tuning stability, and I'd imagine slight intonation).

that is one weird looking guitar crush

Oi, what's wrong with it?

 

[Yorick]

My bass was one of theeeese - http://www.guitarcenter.com/Ibanez-GSR205-5-String-Bass-519525-i1150633.gc

And this is my acoustic - http://www.guitarcenter.com/Ibanez-...coustic-Electric-Guitar-102567492-i1150613.gc

 

[Hazar]

Oi, what's wrong with it?

mostly the bridge/tremolo system looks weird; how do you get the strings to wrap around that bar at the back?

 

[Dalamari]

They go under a bar behind the bridge and then over a bar at the far back that's connected to the tremolo, there's little things to hook the strings on

 

[Crushenator 500]

What Dalamari said

There's a few of them, you can see more and learn a bit more on here

[undertone]

Bigsby Trems are the bomb. I wish I could afford a guitar with one.

I ordered a Lefty Jaguar around a month and a half ago from South Paw Guitars and I still haven't seen it yet.

If I don't get it soon I'm cancelling my order.

 

[Hazar]

with the way that short spring is I'd think you wouldn't have all that much range with it and it would be harder to pull/push up/down.

 

[Dalamari]

Works just as well as the tremolo bar on my Fender, except sometimes the nut holding the bit you push down on gets loose and I've gotta open it up and tighten it all back up.
