well........ shes no longer for sale. im not sure i did the right thing but i sure am happy:D i traded it for this.... 1960 VOS. i couldnt pass it up. the whole time i was kicking the idea around in my head i would rationalize like "it'd be a lot easier to sell a Les Paul than a 137."...

chattanooga's been on my radar for a few years because of the boiler makers union. and i had a welding/construction job on signal mtn workin on a 6 story residential building. thanks for the tip, ill check that place out. :beer:

thanks Duff when i lived in TN there was a place, cant remember the name, but they welded nuclear vessels. oh man, it was impressive. i applied for the position but its such a small town, you really had to know someone. plus they were paying really well so they didnt have really any turn...

thanks Glacies it was a racing engine shop. i have done everything in an engine shop short of crankshaft grinding. bore, hone, deck, balance, assembly. all things cylinder heads... including welding. and i have several years fabrication experience. i built dirt late model chassis's for a...

thanks guys. its just life. it will get better. and then it will get bad again and so on... lol :beer:

ive recently joined the ranks of the unemployed. a shop ive worked at for 8+years has closed its doors. i find myself in need of reliable wheels to go on a southeast tour in search of employment. i am selling my '07 Gibson ES-137 Custom. i have played it very little since acquiring it just over...

i apologize guys, this is the one i have. http://www.musicroom.com/se/ID_No/025060/details.html yea, he does open tunings as well as standard. let me know about that one. im sure its just as good.

i highly recommend this video. there is some stuff in there well worth the admission price. hes a good teacher.

cool idea for a thread. i have a quick little question about how a chord is best fingered. im wanting to play "Gloria" Doors version and i have a tab but im not sure about this chord. in the past ive always just ignored it and went with the easy (open D type laziness) way but im not getting any...

ive found youtube very useful when it comes to determining the accuracy of a d'loaded tab.

yea the '58 bassman. i have that saved both clean and dirty. this is a dangerous tool they have sold me. i can see a lot of money being spent on vintage amps over here because of it. thanks again for the input.

ahh ok. yea there are a few models that i have absolutely fallen in love with via gearbox thru my pc. gearbox is kinda like an dyno for me at this time. i understand a computer processor cannot replicate to the t a vintage tube amp, but i was looking for hopefully someone who has used a...

im not sure i understand. do you mean you are running gearbox thru your amp?

thanks for the input. ive been using it for about a year now with the UX2 and i dont even turn my real amp on anymore. i have a 505w surround system for my pc and i love it. throw in all the learning tools, video lessons etc, i really dont even see a need for an amp until i have the stones to...

i know its not the same but with it i notice pretty significant differences from one model to another. i am trying to fight off the GAS for a Marshall tube amp but there are 4 les pauls in this house and i feel like they hate me for not having acquired one thus far. so.. what i think is good...

ill check those out but i know i wont be happy until i have a marshall of some sort and i dont want to fill this house with amps because thats what will happen unless i go for the crown jewel right off the bat! :)

your guess is as good as mine. i bought it used at a store in stone mtn. ga. it was trans red i believe made in '90 according to the serial. studio light maybe? all i know is it made me sick to lose it.

ahhh now it makes sense. thanks for clearing that up. sorry all:) thanks ted and warren. im head over heels in love! i played this thing for 10 hours the day after i got it and several more everyday since. it all started when my roommate(the drummer who can barely play 'smoke on the water'...

is that the same guy who did that pretty much same thing in the beginning of the jimi plays monterrey video from way back? very cool... both of em

i know you are aware of the symptoms, spud. ive seen the rooftop shot.:bravo: i hope i can keep it in check. once i got my hands on this thing i made the statement that "im officially done buying guitars". and i am.......... probably. for now anyway. but ya know ive never even played thru a...
