Ditching the CD collection?
I love large physical media collections. It's one of my many fetishes.

That's the one part of a relic job that even non-relic fans will do to their guitars - sand the neck. Coincidentally, and the reason why that Gibson HP-II SDofD was the worst timed deal and what will no doubt be a life-long regret I will have to bear, I'm talking with the dude over at Wild West about this guitar I was eyeing since seeing it in his shop a month or so ago. He won't move much on it, but I'm warming up to the idea that he won't have to. https://reverb.com/item/3227181-fender-custom-shop-1960-stratocaster-heavy-relic-rosewood-slab-board-olympic-white And the neck feels like warm apple pie.

Word. Exactly like a rat rod. But also similar to any type of art, really.

They are consistently the highest selling premium models Fender produces, so there might be more that like relics than don't.

Yeah, that deal had zero chance of lasting the time limit. That HP-II was only different from the HPs by having ditched the Tronical tuners, the rest of the guitar is everything Gibson knows about making guitars wrapped up in a modern appearance package (and HP-II's hit the market at $3500 street, not the $3000 MF had stated there). The other deals posted in this thread are good deals, that HP-II one was near robbery. I was scrambling to try and make that work, and I'm not big on that particular fade, but that deal was just too good, the color be damned. But that year Les Paul may go down as the least collectible model year ever, they sold that poorly (hence the market-wide clearances - though none have been as dramatic as that SDofD). However, at that price (MF even followed it up with a Studio HP for the same price, and that's STILL a good deal and that guitar is at least 3 tiers below the LP HP-II!), you'd make money if you ever wanted to sell it, ever. The CASE that guitar comes in will set you back $600 by itself. Stupid deal, indeed.

Holy shit. That's a metric fuck-ton of guitar for that price.

What's up, mirror universe twin me. I hope you relish in the fact that you were of semi-prime age to have lived and experienced the second greatest mainstream musical transition in the history of our species (nothing will probably ever touch the 50s to 60s period). Lucky you, I mean us. (Had you been just a touch older you might have had the benefit of witnessing, if only as a passing tourist, the sub-cultural shift from punk to rap roughly over a half decade prior which might also have informed your further appreciation of the grunge movement that forced even our beloved country music to adapt in fun, new, and interesting ways before dying a slow and painful death, but we can't all have everything. And besides, we had Tool and Korn to see us through.)

Today is the anniversary of the first single released by Pink Floyd, Arnold Layne (1967). Spin some Relics to celebrate, imo.- The Guitar Pron Thread

Only vaguely guitar related: So I had a table built. Guy asked what I wanted for the top. I really only know a couple of woods and wood looks and they are all guitar tops. I tell him "flame maple." He asks "WTF is flame maple?" I text him a pic of Slash's guitar. A month later this was delivered. I'm like "Where's the burst, homie?"- Jimbo 2020: Strangers with Candi
