Re: Iron Maiden 2024

I'd go for KSE. But I'm not paying Iron Maiden money for a KSE show.

Haha! Would have been even more obvious if the next guitar was in shot too.

New LPT day.

Finally got around to getting myself a Les Paul. It’s one of those guitars that I don’t need, but just always want to have. This one is a 2009 (I think) Traditional. Love the idea of the big lump of mahogany that the trads have going on. Even though the more modern tone of a standard would be better...

Re: NGD NTAMMMD NBLGD NFBDPGD

It's quite a different guitar. Jems and RGs are quite flat bodies where-as this is much rounder and feels a bit less bulky. The necks aren't entirely dissimilar, Jems feel a bit flatter than the neck on this, but also wider. Build quality, this is definitely where you see a difference, super tight b...

For that price, you can come to my house and play with it.
If you are lucky you can try the guitar out too.

Actually, looking online at them, I don't think so.
This is an oiled body, the Nathan East ones all look gloss.

Btw is that a Nathan East Yamaha 5?
I don't really know much about it. I just bought it 2nd hand many years ago because I liked the way it sounded.

Re: NGD NTAMMMD NBLGD NFBDPGD

Thanks all. First time I've bought a guitar that came in the factory box and all.
Comes with a signed cert from JP himself too.

Those other controls are gain boost (push pull on vol knob) and a switch to govern if the output is stereo or mono.

Ah. You can figure out the acronyms if you are bored enough. But, new guitar day. For my 40th a couple of months ago my wife told me to get my bucket list guitar. Unlike the majority here I suspect, that for me is neither a Gibson nor a Fender. Welcome my 20th anniversary JP Musicman Majesty. I’ve h...

Re: Axe Fx - Looking for NZ import advice

I've bought two from Independent Music now and they turned up within two days of ordering. I've found them to be great.
Looks like they may be out of stock though.
