The other guitar player in my band does that with my Les Paul sometimes. He’s insanely good. I feel like I should just give it to him sometimes. But then I never do.

That's a phone pic with me holding an LED flashlight over it. Plays really nice out the box, just lowered the bridge just a tiny smidge. I need to get the pedals out and crank it to get the right sound, though. I still suck at playing it. If nothing else it will make the room look much nicer.

I used my Musiciansfriend points to get a $129 Gretsch case for almost free. Threw in a jet slide to get the discount to 15%, and I've been wanting to try one out.

Love the color.  It looks like the retro vinyl booth seating at a Chuy's, which is perfect for a Gretsch.

This is world class guitar trolling.  I love it.

 

This should give me amnesty for the next time I'm seriously looking at a deal and don't pull the trigger...those rare occasions.

I brought the Les Paul home for a string change. Ended up getting a deep cleaning followed by a carnauba waxing of the body and fingerboard conditioning. No words for how much I love this guitar.7f6b5ccb82971374c6a7a228b8113037.jpgfcf479fe6e6131e73d4a4dc5df700742.jpg

That's beautiful.

So I have this Casino Goldtop (maybe around 2008, I'll have to check; Chinese) that I never really bonded with.  It's cool, and it sounds good (especially through a cranked Bassman).  But you know.  Got rid of the vibrations with some felt under the pick guard and replaced the bridge.  Got it set up, but fiddled a little.  Has an Epi hard shell case that's nicer than the original for my 1970 Gibson ES335 by far (cushy). 

Every time I think of ebay or reverb, I plug it into that Bassman, let it rip, and end up keeping it.  But I'm thinking it would be cool to have it end up with a Surly player, especially with the Goldtop, which seems to be a quite rare Casino color.  I know it's the wrong forum, but.

Can probably meet up on my trips around Texas assuming its Houston, Austin, or Dallas (assuming you're in no hurry).

What do you want for it? If not me, I have a buddy who is a Casino nut, and he doesn't have a gold one.

I'd love to get $500, but I'd give your friend a "nice face" discount of 'bout four-fitty

Mandolin is fun. Weird at first, but once you get the feel of it it's pretty easy to pick out a tune and figure out some cool chord patterns. I have a Fender A-style Korean made mando I got at a pawn shop cheap years ago, haven't pulled it out in a long time.

So the Gretsch deal is still on, but now Slickdeals is throwing in an extra $100 rebate. The DougO curse had to kick in at some point.

Apparently, the Slickdeals rebates are kinda sketchy, though.
