I ended up ordering a used Ibanez RG421 on reverb. I would have gone with Rondo SX if they had the configuration I wanted, but oh well. Thanks for the recommendations!

I'm looking to attempt to start learning guitar to pass the time during my state's stay at home order. I am looking to pay around $200, but I could probably push that to $300 if necessary. I would prefer a double humbucker (HH) guitar as I could then also install a custom wiring scheme that I've...

Hopefully this is the right forum for this. I am close to perfecting a headphone amp setup, but I can't solve one annoying issue. When I use a headphone extension cable, audio is only output to the right ear. The setup I am trying for is: Amp (TRS out) -> 1/4" adapter (TRS) -> extension...

Ebay doesn't need solid proof: they can ban his account for violating their terms of service. There is zero legal requirement preventing Ebay from taking action to protect their legitimate users.

Ebay should ban him for life seeing his history of scamming people... the feds getting him for mail fraud would also be a viable option...

This one hits me hard.... Greatest drummer of all time, rock in peace.

I originally bought the Cort - it arrived damaged so I had to return it. I then bought the G&L back when GC had it onsale for $350 - I returned that one because it wasn't anything close to what I was looking for. The neck on the G&L is too chunky for my taste and it was about as heavy as my...

I have been using MintMobile for over a year, and you really can't beat it for the value. I pay just over $20 per month ($250 up front for the whole year) and get unlimited calls/texts and 8GB of LTE data.

I am looking to finally buy a bass this month, and I have narrowed my options down to two. Neither of these basses are available locally, so I won't be able to play them before buying. They cost about the same online (~$450). My requirements were: -Jazz bass style -Maple neck -Maple fretboard...

Well, I am no longer considering an HB... it is now between another Sire or a Fender Geddy Lee signature CIJ...

I don't know if this was already posted, but the new colors are finally available on Thomann ([Invalid or Expired Link Removed])([Invalid or Expired Link Removed])

"Thanks bro. She is pretty. Named'er Cryin Shame. Some of my best compositions come to me in that room. I wish I had a high resolution camera, if I did I'd post some better pictures. It's a carved top and back, radiused like a violin." Well his marketing does seem to be working - the listing...

oh yeah there are definitely other basses that are a good value, especially if I weren't after a Jazz style bass. The MIM Fender's and the better Squiers are good values, I just think the Sire V7 better fits what I am currently looking for. The G&L Tributes are also probably up there value wise...

I am genuinely interested now: what bass would you recommend (preferably that Thomann sells as I have a long list of other stuff that I am going to buy from them) for $600 or under that has as good QC and looks as a Sire? I am not a fanboy by any means, I am looking for the best value for my...

Because [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] to [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] where they control the QC. And for a short period in 2016 (I think it was 2016 at least) Sire had some basses built at the Dame factory and there were numerous complaints about QC issues on the Sire Bass Club...
