When an Elitist is not an Elitist

Circus in Rhythm

I am very sorry to hear that Mike asked to have the videos with him in them taken down. He brings something to music that no one else does. While I sometimes weary of the chorus effect, his playing...

Frank Vignola's Guitar Night, an ongoing concert and livestream series

The videos are posted by somebody @ or doing it for Birdland but no matter who's doing the posting, any form of comment moderation will take time and a careful chart. Just blocking or deleting...

Frank Vignola's Guitar Night, an ongoing concert and livestream series

How true. 'Prog' is an extension of a genre, sometimes extending to fusion, so to me not original like the refs above but possibly innovative in the way it dealt with its sources. Syd Barrett's Pink...

Most influential prog rock band

I’ve always found Sweden to have a great jazz scene. Lots of young people really into it and bands from all over scandi, end up in stockholm. If you can find the time to get out to Sweden and put a...

Up above he says 2k plus shipping/fees for forum members. That seems pretty fair to me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

When an Elitist is not an Elitist

CNC machines some of the cheap mass produced guitars that are sold for a couple hundred pounds/bucks are amazingly good …. (with a bit of a setup !) (also there’s some good amps out there for...

What Do You Consider the Biggest Improvement in Guitar/Gear in Your Lifetime?

I've seen it on a lot of 2460's, I've owned a couple myself, but the OP was referring to old Japanese guitars in general not just Ibanez, there are many Aria's etc w/ bad binding for example.

More affordable alternatives to the Gibson L-5 and ES-175?

+1 on the Guild X-150. I've had mine for about a month and a half. Kind of silly that you can get this level of guitar for less than a new Eastman or Peerless.

More affordable alternatives to the Gibson L-5 and ES-175?

I think Ibanez (fuji-gen) went through a phase in construction where whatever they were doing, caused binding and finish issues. This seemed to mostly be on the artist series. Jimmy Blue Note will...

More affordable alternatives to the Gibson L-5 and ES-175?

Epiphone. Broadway is 25.5, Joe Pass is 24.75 I like the broadway, no need to go with an elitist. The regular ones are good too, I think Epiphone is a step up from Ibanez, could have just been...

More affordable alternatives to the Gibson L-5 and ES-175?

Not sure what you're saying. Are you saying you have a 335 or 535 forsale?

anyone selling a 535 or 335? And how do the new 535s compare to the originals?

looks sweet but $3k for an epiphone elitist is a bit of a stretch I think. The original tailpiece on those epiphones made for a string length greater than some strings you could buy so changing over...

When an Elitist is not an Elitist

Ask sellers if the neck is straight, does the truss rod work, what the fret life is like. Are there any cracks to the body, has the top sunk etc.. Most sellers won't know but will say yes it's all...

I haven’t been trolling guitar sites on the internet so that’s a good sign :smile-new:
