I dislike large headstocks, modern bridges and modern tuners on strats.

I think they look better on a jazzmaster or something with a bigger body, definitely out of proportion on a Strat IMO.

Definitely not a fan on Jazzy’s either. They’re simply out of proportion full stop.

Not a fan of the big headstocks at all.

I got a 1966 PR out of North Carolina around 10 years ago. In mint condition with a Weber 10F150T which sounds amazing.

1970 Princeton sits below.

A few who can’t pin anyone for a Jazzmaster. Personally Adam Franklin is my Jazzmaster messiah (from Rick Beato’s favourite band), but some of the more famous users would be Sonic Youth, Elvis Costello, Tom Verlaine, Nels Cline, Ric Ocasek, Jim Root, J Mascis, Troy van Leeuwen, Robert Smith, Kevin S...

Getting bored of YT is our own fault for watching too much of it. Suppose it'll be porn next... ;-) Porn is harder to get tired of, until you're down the rabbit hole of a dude in a gimp suit on a swing getting pegged by a trans chick while her cuckold husband in the chastity cage waits to drink the...

That Reverb excerpt says it all. The need to get documentation for finished instruments has ceased. It says the Brazilian Rosewood restrictions remain in place. Aug 28 was the CITES conference. Nov 26 it was implemented. From Studio 1 Vintage guitars who I emailed recently: We need to get them sigh...

I don’t think this is a thing anymore for instruments made pre initial law changes. I’ve never really thought about it - just ordered, and it’s been delivered. Someone else might have a more carefully thought through response, but I’d be just buying and making sure it was with PayPal so you have a ...

Can you take it on as hand luggage? That’s what I have done with higher end guitars, incl Braz board. Hi Grant. Hoping you or any other experienced NZG chaps could help with advice on importing vintage from USA to NZ. I’ve wanted a vintage Jazzmaster since I was 15. Now I’m in the position to get a...

My ‘66 Princeton Reverb and ‘70 Princeton. The 66 came from North Carolina around 10 years ago. A lady’s estate. Apparently she had a ‘57 Strat as well

Silverface from Iowa maybe 15 years ago. Just love these amps.

Someone very well connected in the music scene told me it’s basically a bought endorsement courtesy of the music store that supports Nail putting future purchasing pressure on Gibson.

Papa Roach, fml :roll: I don’t think any level of production would help Devilskin. I don’t care if they’re from NZ. That shouldn’t alter how one critiques what they hear, which we all do and many elaborate on this here board. I had a family member in the Black Seeds. Didn’t make me want to listen to...

Is it ok to say that I really dislike Devilskin? And The Rock, while we’re at it.

Sort of. He was round here yesterday with the amps and I jammed a little bit. Nothing structured, I was noodling and he was filming. It's a mish mash of 3 amps - the 800, and 2 of his own designs the Overburden and one called Paydirt. Don't expect much, I'm a caveman at the best of times. https://y...

AI created cover of Paul McCartney "performing' Aha's Take On Me. I think the backing track is from an Aha Unplugged performance.
