NGD!
I'm not one for posting NxD threads for a long time but this purchase just makes me giggle so much when I play with it!
I bought this for playing on the couch while watching telly or whatever, its a Blackstar Carry-on Travel Guitar, 20.7" scale strung with 12-54s in E Standard, single mini humbucker in the bridge and fit and finish is really great! Neck is very comfy and apart from the action being a little higher than I normally run it plays great!

Two steps and the squelching would put me off.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Re: NGD!
So it turns out a baritone ukulele bag is a perfect fit for this, so storage woes fixed! The higher priced bundles come with a bag but I didn't want all the other guff...

Re: NGD!
I've come close to grabbing one of those. Thought it would make a nice lap steel?

Re: NGD!
Funnily enough the first person I showed it to wondered if it was a lap steel I don't know much about lap steels but it would likely hit that mark for bugger all $$ I find it hard to believe these are only $349!Dharmajester wrote: ↑Mon Apr 10, 2023 2:56 pm I've come close to grabbing one of those.
