I have 3. Love all of them. An Americana series(acoustic), solid body electromatic. (very heavy). Plus, a White Falcon. So nice, I am afraid to take it out and play it. For what it`s worth, it is everything it is built up to be. Also a Dorado 12 string . Gretsch`s version of Epiphone or Sigma in the 70s.

Re: Case for Guild F2512 (4 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
Is it the same size as a D 25 12?? I have one for sale. 100.00. ( plus shipping)The only catch is that I will not seperate them. The case is beat up on the outside but fully functional.

Re: How Often Do You Change Strings (9 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
I change them when they are pretty much completely dead. Anyone that knows me here will understand this. It is easier for me to change guitars than it is to change strings. So I always end up with a few that need changing all at once. That is when I break out the tools and go on a "String Changing Marathon".

Re: Hollowbody Styles "?" (9 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
You should try out as many as you can. You may end up with something completely different. Don`t forget used. You could get a lot more bang for your buck. Ibanez Artcore is a wonderful guitar. A friend just bought a Gretsch. Full hollow. He loves it. I don`t know the model. My Gretsch is great. It is basically a case queen. A little too great that I am afraid to scratch it. Don`t rule out pawn shops, craigslist. This time of year, they have a great selection

Re: NGD -Again. (10 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Like I said. The guitar itself is a dime a dozen. It was the original box and all the tags that turned me on. I have another one just like it. It looks like it has never been played. This one has scratches and a missing string. Got it for a good price though. I have managed to find 3 that have never been played or have gotten very little use. One is a 1960 Emenee Teen Timer with the original box, strings and rope strap. It is a toy. Still a cool find though.

It makes me sad to see a picture of a guitar without a bread machine - no THE bread machine - in it.
Looks like a nice guitar. I have my eye on a The Loar archtop acoustic. Something about them just says..."blues."
The bread machine is still in the back of my car (Cah). Been there since August.

Re: I Guess I Owe The Squier Company An Apology (20 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I have to disagree with Russell`s comment that they were all made in Indonesia. I just bought a Made In U.S.A. Squier. A "Fire Squier". There was a fire at the Squier factory. Fender still had to fill orders. They were made here until the factory was up and running again. Pictures in an earlier post.

This time it is another 2001 Ibanez Artcore. Same color. This one is definitely used. The other looks like it was never played. The difference. It has the original numbers matching box. Plus all the original tags and truss rod wrench in the plastic bag. Picture fairy, please help. Thanx in advance.
Edited by picture fairy.

I have never heard of one before either. It does have the same bridge as a Duo Sonic. Oddball fenders are some of the coolest guitars.

Re: Strats Made In Mexico. Be Careful (9 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I have 2 MIM Strats and a MIM Tele. They are great guitars. One is hot rodded and is an awesome guitar. Fender`s website is a great way to research before you buy. It helps decipher serial numbers. I used that to make sure my MIA Squier was the real deal. Stupid Question. Wasn`t there a picture of the headstock on the Ebay post?? It says Made In Mexico right under Stratocaster.
