NZGuitars.com : Filling you with GAS since 2003

How do you string your guitars? In my experience it's always the nut. My '68 custom RI stayed in tune forever, but a few slots were cut too low. I had a bone nut put in, and the stability went comically backwards, which led to some anger towards the "luthier" who did it. I put a graph tech...

Cool unique shape. Early Yamaha made some crazy looking body styles. Love it.

Lovely. Never had a semi, always go straight to solid. This one is inspiring.

Hnnnggg That '14 R9 is tasty! They're all sweet though.

You can remove a stetsbar easily and fit a stop tail, no extra holes created or anything.

Please note the coffee coloured crocs. This is my favorite so far. I want an Artisan. Pancake construction or not. Pr...

Mmm P90 SG in the beautiful Cadillac colour.

Approval.

Fascinating photo. The sight of that mill blows me away. I would have never thought such a structure would've existed in that location. So that was Mills Lane off what is now Albert St? Liverpool St is steeper than that. Reminds me of nearby Parnell Rise, with the remaining older architecture, of wh...

I’ll get some dimensions It's surprisingly slim. I remember saying that in the NGD thread for it. Def...

Very cool. Collector grade or not, a good guitar is a good guitar. Lovely creamy aging.
