Crack is a hell of a drug, just ask Hunter Biden.

That's primer, so no the translucent mojo won't have that.

Redneckatron, always Redneckatron. Redneckatron is life.

Also watched Stop Making Sense last night with my wife (her first time seeing it) so I've had psycho killer and life during wartime in my head all day.
But ALWAYS Redneckatron.

Yup, I'll give it my still and give you a detailed report back. As well as place an order!

So they made those springs in house? Or were they made by a third party who has since destroyed the equipment?
Is there any documentation on this machine, pictures, time stamps you see it in a video? Where did the bar stock come from? Lots of questions that should be able to be answered I'd hope.

So I had a dream last night, one I thought I'd share. I've been dwelling lately on Fly construction. I'm no stranger to building instruments, having been a self employed luthier for 15 years or so, done lots of restoration and repairs, and worked in manufacturing high end archtop guitars. The past 5...

I'm fully expecting to setup the guitar with a fresh set of nyxls, assuming it passes my QC inspection. I hate GC, and am prepared to receive anything from a flawless guitar, to a molested moldy rust bucket. But that 45 day return window and the good price sold me (well, my lovely wife anyways). Fin...

I've looked at the keisels pretty seriously in the past. Not a fan of the trem they're married to at the end of the day. And that's enough to keep me from pulling the trigger on one. But I spent the last couple days looking at used Majesty's, watched a few review videos with the wife, and the next t...

I'm seriously considering it. I wasn't aware guitar center allowed returns on used gear, that might be a very viable option to try one in house to see if it'll scratch my itch. They're definitely pretty sweet on paper. My wife asked to see my 7 string so I brought it home tonight. She commented that...

Still looking for well over a year. Tried a bunch of stuff out to no avail. So I FINALLY got around to looking at some Majesty's. I'd seen the flip flop paint with carbon shield model in the past and thought it was hideous. But they have other finishes, and some decent looking wood tops. And wouldn'...

+1 to naptha

Gad prices must be bad out in Cali right about now.

I messaged the seller, he never responded. Looks like I missed out on "the one". When I picture in my mind eye 7 strings Parker fly, this particular guitar comes up.
Oh well, at least an FM9 will be here in a few days. Though I ain't gonna lie I'm crushed.

Oh my Lord. What a roller coaster. Literally spent the last week failing to convince myself to order a Strandberg 7. Then yesterday got my invite to purchase the new FM9 after a few months of being on the wait-list, which I did. Then today this. I've got 4 kids and a fixed income, I can't play these...

That's a little outta my reach right now. But I'm on it! Studio fire sale incoming!

Pretty much at the same conclusion regarding adding a 13 pin of some sort etc. I did spend an hour or so with a boden metal 6 today at a semi local guitar denter. It's not an NX, or a 7 string, and has been kicking around a guitar center for a couple years, and didn't have a trem, but it did have th...

The time is drawing near where I have to make something happen here. Over a year without even seeing a Parker 7, and my back can't take it any more. I'm looking hard at that Strandberg prog nx7 model, and I keep building stuff on kiesels website, though they can't quite tick all my boxes regardless ...

That's more than a cosmetic issue.
