from : localhost/does the justification lie?
1) They're hand built.
2) Ramp;D is expensive, so they need to offset the low volume of sales with a higher price.

I have some new songs done. The first two (The One That Gets Us Through and When You Dream) I just finished this week. The last two I have had done for a while.
The first 2 are my first crack at doing vocals. If you would check them out and give me some feedback that would be appreciated.
You can hear them at quot;You dont have to be a member to listen to them.

A local guy, Rob Formentin has been producing a load of axes but has stopped production recently. I heard that he has gone overseas to sell some of these to various asian countries. I played one today and it had the lowest action id ever played, sheoak body and maple/rosewood neck. Its shape is similar to that of a strat but has its own distinctive style. It was a custom made Aussie Battler with dimarzio pickups, gold gotoh hardware, fixed bridge and 24 fret neck.
I fell in love with it and i may buy it, ill post pictures on this thread if i do. Im also checking out another custom Formentin with a floyd rose trem and seymour duncan pickups in transparent blue finish. So whichever of these two i purchase, you will soon see on here.
If anyone has some info on these guitars, at all? please let me know. I found one review of one on harmony central, but bleh :P

I would what guys think I should do? It costs about $150 more if I get a hard case for my tokai from ishibashi. I could just order it then get a deluxe tokai hard case here from : localhost/to save some money too.
The shipping would be a lot safer if the guitar came inside the case. I'd buy it from Japan.
Oh I forgot to mention it comes with a soft case. Well I guess I get it from Ishibashi with my guitar because I just got a price quote from jsd that the total for the case will be $125, basically a $14.18 difference not much of a price to pay for safety.

I am in tone heaven with the Surfer neck and bridge. I have the Custom bridge in the guitar now (the slightly hotter one) and it sounds great but I am wondering how much of a difference installing the 'regular' Surfer bridge might make in terms of the bridge/middle position...maybe the regular pickup would make it sound mo' great to my ears.
If anyone has tried both, feedback would be appreciated! I think there are a couple of guys who have experimented with both.
Thanks!

Well, having just moved into an apartment I'm looking into a headphone capable practice amp. I was considering a Line 6 POD, as I've owned them before and know what they can do, but it looks like all the features I need and then some can be had via the Guitarport. So, GP owners, is it worth $100?
Guitarport = AWESOME!! I'm surprised the price tag is so low. After I got one I sold both my pod XT and Vox Tonelab. Sounds just as good, cheaper, and upgradable.
I think the guitarport is an excellent value. It is cheap and has very usable sounds. Latency can be an issue with a slower computer, but overall it rocks.

Its time to retire my Ibanez S-series. I'm looking for a dual-humbucker, floyd-equipped guitar (doesn't have to be original floyd rose) for my whammy bar work. What do you guys think will have the best tone?
Some options I'm considering:
a) Ibanez Jem (yeah, but which one?)

hello,got a couple of questions. i just picked up a 1980 Gibson KZ II--Melody Maker bod w/ 2 humbuckers and a les paul style set neck. made in Kalamazoo...
1. i can't find out any details about this guitar. Gibson could not tell me anything i didn't know already...( see above ). anyone got any history on this thing. it's a nice player.
2. i'd like to put in a new bridge p/u, i play straight-ahead rock/punk. any suggestions? thanks a lot--joe
Only by pics do I know it. They didn't sell a lot of them but they are pretty cool. Not that there isn't someone here who might know more but you might try the quot;Other Gibsonsquot; section of the Les Paul Forum.

Im deciding between either a late 70s Marshall JMP mastervolume, a plexi RI (1959SLP or 1987x), or a 1980s JCM800. I dont really know what I should choose so can you guys tell me some pros and cons of each. I like to play classic rock stuff and 80s hair metal. It doesnt really matter if its 50W or 100W because Ill probably get an attenuator anyway. I want something with good tone. My guitar teacher has a 78 master volume JMP and its a little on the bright side (which can be good for AC/DC kind of stuff but I dont think Id like it all the time) and idk if the JCM800s have good enough tone or not or if they can get good clean sounds. I kinda like that vintage stuff to so thats why I wasnt sure if the plexi RIs would get that sound but I think Im leaning towards the plexi RIs. Also I only have $1000 to spend and I already have a cab but I would prefer not to spend that much. So can you guys give me some of your input. Thanks.
I don't own any of these, but I would personally pick the JCM800 or the 1987x. I just love the sounds they produce.
From your description, I'd say go for the SLP 1987X. I was trying to make this decision recently and someone here told me that it's much easier to make an SLP sound like a JCM than it is to make a JCM sound like a SLP. That was enough for me anyway!
