Re: Return of the Gibbons shocker thread!

NGDays should be incredibly pleasurable - but this:

is no bueno. Why would a headstock break with no damage to the box :?

Re: These are a few of my favourite things. UAFX Lion!

I like their golden reverb pedal, but not the price. I thought the whole point of products being made in the East, was that they're more affordable 🤔

The Way It Is - Bruce Hornsby and the Range, on piano.

It's not going to well, but the determination is there.

Looks 'spensive. What does it do?
It's a preamp in pedal format. Two channels, tube driven. Great sounding IRs. Sounds good in the demos :thumbup:

Re: Number 34 - new design!

My favorite of yours yet. Beautiful fret work. What are you using for leveling and crowning? Some bigger manufacturers could take a leaf or two out of your book.

Re: Forums have been slow, how about a 'In the mail' thread?

Apparently very loud! The GK 250ml was amp for the guitars on Irons Maidens Somewhere in Time album. They seem to have a cult following. Yes, along with some other big names, like Gilmour, Sambora, Lifeson, and Van Halen (for practice). :thumbup: I bought one too after seeing Gary Moore using one i...

Re: Directory listing for guitar repairs, services etc.

Is that the one who stuffed up your nut? How are you going with doing it yourself? Yeah same one. His second attempt has led to disappointing results. I'll give it a go myself with a slotted tusq. If only it was done properly in the first place by the manufacturer. I'll leave it there. Where are yo...

Can we do reviews of said places? I've got a 0 out of 10 recommendation for one of them. Is that the one who stuffed up your nut? How are you going with doing it yourself? Yeah same one.

Re: NGD: 1995 Gibson Studio

Congrats man. But far out, the previous owner needs a boot for selling a guitar in such filthy condition. Some people have no shame - but you've spruced it up nicely.

Re: Forums have been slow, how about a 'In the mail' thread?

Beauty. Are you going to make any other changes, Grant? Witch hats, etc (although those speed knobs look great on it). I like the 14° headstock much more than the 50's era steepness. Headstock angle never bothers me, but this does have a slinky feel to bends, which some attribute that angle to. I'd...
