Re: Cable recommendations

Mogami w2524 and Neutrik NP2X is what I've used for ages and ages after I made a bunch of them after my planet waves died (and can't be repaired easily). Turns out their lifetime warranty didn't migrate when Daddario bought them out and instead became a 2 yr warranty. The Mogami stuff is world class...

Re: NGD: restored 1985 Canora Les Paul

What a freaky design concept. Seems almost more difficult than the original LP concept. well done on the resto. The neck is 3 pieces too. The headstock, heel, and main neck shaft are all different pieces. It's much louder than my other electrics when unplugged, and very balanced sounding when plugg...

NGD: restored 1985 Canora Les Paul

Who? Canora. They were a shot-lived 'brand' in the mid-80s started by a music distributor in Canada. Canora is a town in Saskatchewan. They were made by Cortek in Korea. This exact same guitar was sold as the Hohner L59 and also the Cort GE27. If you ordered enough you could put your own logo up the...

It's not about the sound, it's about the feel of the strings.

Re: What’s this Strat worth?

1300 if it's in great shape. Less than that if not.

Re: Gold Hardware restoring ?

Has anyone restored the oxidized gold hardware on a guitar. Actually I do not think oxidized is right as gold does not tarnish or oxidize ? here examples are attached. Interesting approach to stringing. Tell me more. Top wrapping. It eliminates/diminishes the break angle at the bridge making the st...

Despite it being gold and horsey it's nothing like a Klon but is a medium gain blues machine that absolutely loves the neck pickup of a strat, Comp switch up, Size switch up, and dollops ...

Re: Molestation: An Ethical Perspective.

Replacing pots and frets seem like maintenance issues more than modding.
