Here is his other guitars. Only one I fucked with was the ibenez which needed a shim under the neck which fixed his action which was like 5/16 at the neck joint lol. that Ibanez and the Gretch was given to him by his uncle which cannot play anymore (had a stroke).

New horse in the stable. I've always invested in my electrics and decided it was time to invest on the acoustic side. Taylor K24ce Builders Edition. Grand Auditorium body with Koa wood. Plays like a dream and sounds huge.

I came across this guy a year or so ago not realizing he used to play with Scale The Summit. I've been enjoying his content; plenty of theory and 'teaching moments', he kinda reminds me of Palmisano.

Also, really need to get Propaghandi back into my rotation.

Ended up fixing up my 1975 LP Custom.

New SS frets
New Tusq XL nut
Bare knuckle After maths
New setup and intonation

Probably my fav guitar now

Also recently purchased and Ibanez RG 2027XL. If you aren't aware it's a baritone 27" scale 7 string.

Anyone ever own a Roland amp? Was thinking about picking up a Roland Jazz Chorus amp. The price is not staggering but not cheap either when you consider it's a solid state amp. All I have to go on is what I have read and some videos. I know Roland has been around a long time but I've never owned anything of theirs.

I've played on them but never bought one, one of if not the only stereo amp around when i was a kid. Very unique sound for sure if they have remained truthful to the ones I remember as a kid.

Thanks. Going to keep an eye out for one on sale maybe. I could go used and it wouldn't matter but then you pay shipping which even for a non tube amp adds up. Surely sweetwater will have a big 50% off sale of everything for black Friday, right?

I'd look at Facebook marketplace too

I got thT $1000 guitar for 300

Jealous. I'm keeping an eye out on CC/Musicians friend for a used trade in on one. Reverb is an option but the shipping even on a non tube amp there is not cheap compared to elsewhere.

I asked my girlfriend to look at FB marketplace. Pretty much what I expected, lot of farm equipment and tractors. There's a small college town about an hour away but it came up empty too. A fair number of well off students from Houston or Dallas that their parents send them there to get grades up to attend UT or A&M, would think there would be more guitar stuff but nope.

Bought a monoprice 15w tube amp on sale with black Friday for just over $200 with code.

Not the greatest and I'm still looking for a Roland. My Fender Blues Junior has slowly been degrading and my current house is entirely too small to even think about using my twin reverb.
