Re: NGD • Tokai LS135Q
Thanks. Was talking with Molly in another thread and I was saying (at least for me) how I think I don't give myself enough time to form a 'bond' with my gear. I can't find anything I don't like about this one and it sounds as good as it looksSai Soe wrote:Nice!
Re: NGD • Tokai LS135Q
Just how it came I guess. The old Gibson covers I put onto the pickups don't quite sit flush, so the humbuckers are slightly recessed but doesn't bother me.kwhelan wrote:those bridge pickup screws look really low, is that a preference thing. can't say I've seen them like that before
Re: NGD • Tokai LS135Q
Spent this arvo with it. Took the covers off and switched them to see if each one fitted any better on the other pickup (they did, not perfect but better). Something small like that would probably start to bug me after a while. OCD much?Conway wrote:And it will be for sale again this afternoon...
There’s irony in the fact that I already like this guitar. A lot. But as I’m not rich I need to keep the wife happy by not taking money from the mortgage or savings accounts; unfortunately that usually means last thing in, first thing out. GAS can hit hard when you’re not a naturally patient person

You might find a FIFO basis is better - keeps your inventory fresher.Mini Forklift Ⓥ wrote:that usually means last thing in, first thing out
Re: NGD • Tokai LS135Q
I had a feeling that the nitro finish on this LP was on the thin side. Four months in and I've already worn through one of the areas where my pick hits (well, a 50c coin to be specific)

It is just a cap, no veneerrobnobcorncob wrote:How long until you wear through the quilt veneer through to the maple cap?
Re: NGD • Tokai LS135Q
Shit, surprised at the wear this guitar is picking up
On a side note I have started writing down the date I change the strings, useful having that to reference how long you've had them on there for. Turns out I got about 9 weeks out of this last set, without noting the date I would have had no idea and likely they'd have stayed on for another month lol

Personally I don't like the look of pickguards on LP's, never have done. Pretty sure that this one is a keeper, although I realise that coming from me those words don't carry a lot of weightdayl wrote:One gorgeous gat. Embrace the wear...unless the guitar is just passing by... then... aw.... maybe throw a PG on it.
