I may be missing the point, but I'm with Sam, can't see the interest that would make them worth $2600...
Sometimes, all that is required is to thank someone for giving us a good laugh :D

Love It :D The Boy's got more balls than a Snooker tournament. I think he's pitching in the wrong market, ( "Jansen what? That just ain't Amerricun") but self belief and bullshit gets some folks a long way :!:

Couldn't do it. Not possible. Like having to answer, "Which of your legs do you want to keep?"

True.
I have a Strat that has lovingly worn over the years, but everyone assumes I took to it with implements of torture.

... And people still miss the point of relics :roll: Try this: 1. Get it out of its case, put it on a stand in your bedroom. leave it there. 2. Every time you pass it, grieve. Cry, wail, gnash your teeth, fall to the floor and hammer your forehead on the carpet. 3. Keep this up until you are battere...

Re: Speaker cables... in combo amps?

I'm convinced it makes a difference. A few years ago, I scored a pile of Audioquest and Straightwire speaker and line level cables and played around. My speaker cable is now a midrange piece of Audioquest (about $50 per metre) and I have re wired my heads with it too. Recently, I needed a longer cab...

He is going to have a look at it and will get it going at it's best for me. I was initially thinking of ge...

I visualise little LED's or optical fibre but it would be so complicated to do We have a guy in Christchurch called Chevy (forgotten his real name) and when he buys something high end, he always has som...

Re: Side fret markers....

Side-dots are relatively easy to LED-ify without major surgery. FB dots can be done too, but it's a great deal more difficult. Depending on the type of guitar, removing the FB could be easier. Would I be right in saying that you would run wires in the neck before installing the fingerboard and have...
