It's a Gibson SG 1962 re-issue, dropped $1000 for it. Well worth the money. I play whatever my fingers want to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EyeforAnEYE Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 squier start is the first guitar i got like 6 years ago, it handled much abuse. But then I was at the music store and that gibson caught my eye, and I had to buy it. Well worth it. Go for the USA made squier not the mexican one. The USA made ones last a lot longer.

taxnyomama Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 My first electric was a heap'o'crap Samick strat copy. It did the job. Now I currently play a heap'o'crap Ibanez GAX70. It's a nasty piece of work but at the time I bought it, it was perfect for the kind of thrashing that I was into (damn, what a 'tard I was!). I think it's important to start on a shit guitar so that you can appreciate what a good one is and find out what fits you best, however, I cannot emphasize enough the need to upgrade your gear as you progress with your playing. Not upgrading can seriously hold you back. I went to the local music shop just before Christmas and was looking at the Gibson Les Paul Standards. The guy there was nice enough to let me try one through a Marshall amp and it was seriously the most amazing shit. I stood there like a complete fucking poser with the LP hanging low and ripped into a Mr. Brownstone -> Sweet Child O Mine -> Paradise City combo. I was Slash for like 20 minutes and it was great. I'm in my 7th year of playing now and have finally mastered the technique of soloing while holding the guitar over the back of my head, between my legs or basically any position. For some reason playing guitar removes every ounce of "giving a fuck" in my body momentarily. So so dope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smart Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 it was $1300 but I swapped a Charvel Model 5 for it so it was around $700... came stock with EMG's... I like it :) the nicest is the acoustic up top, a boutiique brand but it was made by a 20year Martin luthier, basically a D-28... or maybe the Gibson acoustic, it's a '69 J-45...

Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smart Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 I got a couple little Crates, not really happy with them but they work... I've been shopping but I think I'm just gonna pick up this thing called an Art MP V3 or something, it's a mic preamp but it's hot... also I been looking at a couple fancy direct boxes... I haven't gigged in years but when I was active I liked to run direct... all that gear is dead or sold now though, hahaha... Where are the strings breaking? I mean physically, like busting out of the ball end or snapping where the windings end or? You can reinforce that with solder if you have to but it's tedious to do for a bunch of strings... of course you only reinforce the ones you break... Are you sure you need to file it? I mean, is there a definate burr on the saddle? it might be more about the string angle, that often seems to contribute, try 'coloring' on the bridge saddle with a #2 pencil, that will reduce friction a little and should help some... also you might try heavier strings... AND you could also upgrade your saddle pieces to brass roller saddles for around $30 - 50... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mikro137 Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 the coloring didnt work that well. thats why im concidering filing. i am as good as totally broke these days , or id probally upgrade to the roller saddles. crates are ok for power , my 2x12 is 120 watts of insanity , especially when i have it hooked up to my marshall for a preamp and my 15. the actual amp sounds like shit. ive been fucking around with a boss multi effects and various distortion pedals over the years as well. i want a mesa v twin really bad , but im so broke i cant even buy strings right now. if you are looking into amps/direct boxes etc etc look into a v twin.

Spike Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 http://www.geocities.com/spike1602/ This is what's being custom built for me in a sekrit location in Russia. No really. It's a replica of a 1979 Gibson Custom Silverburst LP, and when it's done will probably look, play and sound better than an original. God bless the crazy Russian guitarsmiths. (Yes, I made the word guitarsmith up. But it sounds cool doesn't it?) Unfortunately a big metal tank fell off a wall and crushed the neck... luckily it wasn't attached to the body yet, so they're just building a new one, meaning that my guitar should be finished mid-March. At the moment I'm playing an Ibanez RG-470 into a Pod Pro... thru a Rage 158, since I sold my old combo to fund the new guitar. Hopefully I'll be able to afford a MesaBoogie 20:20 and 4x12 cab within the next 9 months, if everything works out... at which point I'd kick your asses. I really want a Diezel VH4 or Herbert, or a Dual Rectifier (or a 12 space rack system involving all sorts of great gear), but I'm broke enough as it is. This new guitar is meaning that I have no life savings any more... oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
