    The Dreaded 'B' Word

    After shopping for several months for an affordable eight buss, doing a lot of searching, reading, and question asking, I decided on the new Behringer SX4882 console for the studio. The kicker was 15% off through the 4th of July holiday. I looked hard at the Mackie eight bus, but even with 15%...

    FS or Trade TASCAM 52B

    I've been contemplating this sale for several months but I need to move on it. I'll be sorry to see it go, but I need other gear I can put to use. This is a nice machine with little head wear. I recorded one master tape on this machine and never used it again except to spin the tape...

    Like New Epiphone ES-175 For Sale

    I've played this about four hours total. Warm sounding very nice jazz box and a nice build. Perfect binding and paint. Sounds good through my VOX AC50CP, YMMV with what you use. Since buying my Rick Turner guitar I don't play it any longer and it's just taking up wall space. I need to move it...

    What's the story with Mesa?

    I've never owned one of these amps in the past, but I hear nothing about them, even here. I know a lot of musicians use them, but is there anything inherently wrong with this brand? Do they have a high failure rate or a history of problems? Is the sound fairly generic for a tube amp or are they...

    Finally; HNGD!

    After six months, this beauty showed up on my doorstep. I may sell every other guitar I have after playing this. There is no comparison, nor sound I can't get out of it. Rick Turner builds the best guitar I have ever played or heard. Sorry, pictures just don't do it justice.

    Presenting the Dean Bavarian Vendetta...

    I finished it up last night with re-wiring and hardware installation, and finished stinging it up awhile ago before shooting these snaps. Tuners are Wilkinson, pots are Alpha, bridge is no-name from GF, pickups are Epiphone, electrical hardware by Switchcraft. I didn't get the decals that I...

    Dean Bavarian Vendetta

    I had this Dean Vendetta for about five years after giving away one of my nicer guitars to my son for a Christmas present. I bought it as a temporary player until I could fill the hole with something better. After buying my Custom several years ago I didn't play it much at all and it sat in the...

    MJ Guitar Engineering / Mirage Standard

    Has anyone heard of, or purchased a guitar from this US company before? Their models are all hand-built and custom and prices don't seem to unreasonable for a custom product. I read good reviews about their guitars, but I'd like to know what anyone here thinks about them if they have any...

    Epiphone ES-175 Re-issue

    This arrived yesterday late. Epiphone did a very nice job on this model. I was told that the 'Epiphone Custom Shop Limited Edition' on the headstock means little except that it's a limited run of probably thousands. Go figure...:whatever: The attention to detail is apparent everywhere on the...

    Hi Folks!

    I've been lurking here for a couple of weeks but just got around to signing up. Nice place you have here. I'm expecting a new Epiphone ES-175 on Tuesday. I hope it lives up to the reviews. Planning a pickup swap too after getting a feel for what it sounds like out of the box.
