SPAMALERT!
Anyone looking for a ‘beginner’ guitar?
(I was using it as a travel/camping guitar)
I have a Fender ‘starcaster’ telecaster, really cheap.
Like, $140?
It plays beautifully, low/easy action.
Sounds great through an amp.
Can deliver to Colorado/SLC, in all likelihood.
Otherwise maybe $40 shipping?

You sir, are an enabler! Now just stop it, before I have as many guitars as I have skis, and I have to put my son out on the street so i can have his bedroom for my guitars!Quote:

Attachment 365564Nothing special. Couple of Squier Strats, Ibanez acoustic. Beginner guitars. New place has room to put them on the wall, at least...
Just got a Baby Taylor traveling acoustic. I have to say it's actually the nicest playing guitar I've ever owned. The action is fantastic and it's really a rich sound for a small guitar. Highly recommend if you're looking for something to take camping, etc.
Here's the two I usually play:
-Schecter Solo II Custom (tuned Eb standard)
-Schecter C-1 Platinum (tuned drop D or drop C#)
-Marshall DSL 20CR

I am a terrible player but omg this amp will instantly get your woman pregnant.
Also have two acoustics, some cheap Yamaha and a really cool but valueless Sears store brand acoustic from the 60s that belonged to my sister-in-law's grandpa.
I don't have one
Ok, I've been thinking about it since the beginning of covid and I might finally be ready to pull the trigger on a new acoustic. However, haven't played anything to test it out due to lockdown, so need to go through that process.
So I'm soliciting suggestions. What guitar do I want? I'd like it to have a cutout to get high on the fretboard and a pickup is a bonus but not required. Currently playing a Sigma which is a more cost effective Martin made acoustic, and I frankly don't love it but maybe don't read too much into that. I want a rich sound. I also tend to play a lot of bar chords on the acoustic so lower action is preferred.
Tell me what I want. And I'd probably look for it used.
Also, adrenalated, that's a beautiful setup.

Dad picked this up when he was stationed in Madrid mid 1950s, Ramirez Student Model. It was trashed and I restored it for him 25 years ago. Got it when he passed.

Suggestions?
Roland Micro Cube?Quote:

I think its awesome for what it is.
I’ve played some crush amps and I thought they really sucked. Mushy and no definition, horrible distortion. VOX pathfinder is surprisingly really good but has a very specific sound, takes pedals well. Fender Champion 20 would be my call. Little more expensive, but sounds good and has decent amp/effects modeling. The various amp in a box options with powered speakers are really cool but obviously cost more.Quote:

Excellent feedback. That Vox was on the list. I’m gonna have to look at it closer. The Fender Champion 20 I didn’t even know existed. I’ll check it out too.Quote:

I have a THR10, it’s great. Perfect camping rig. Also thinking about a big-boy version to make the plaster shake a bit more.
Maybe one of these…

Those THR10 are clearly loved. But more cash than I was looking for. I think I’m mostly gonna run a microphone through it but I’ll use it now and then with a guitar.Quote:

I have a guitar in my office with a little frontman just to make a little noise. But no turning it up there. That leaves me with just one amp at home, a Fender Performer 650, which is LOUD. I have nothing for the mic since I brought the frontman into work. So it’d be nice to find one that can do double duty: amp for the mic as well as serving as a small amp for the guitar when I want less noise.
Also the 650 does not love being plugged into an acoustic. Little overdriven.
Hell I’ll probably just bail and buy a traveler ultralight first.
I clearly have no idea what I’m doing next at any given time.
I have a Boss Katana Mini and am SUPER impressed by how good it sounds for such a tiny and inexpensive little amp.Quote:

Just a bump to say that the pandemic seems to have changed the math on the number of guitars you should own from N+1 to like N+5 or some shit...
Very nice. Tobacco Burst right? How do you like it? Still trying to figure out what kind of music I like my Gretsch for.Quote:
