  1. I am a sucker for honest play wear/natural relic-ing. If I were given the choice of two identical guitars, one in mint condition, one in "this tool actually put food on someone's table" condition, I'm taking the latter every time.
  2. I think I used Amplitube, once, a long time ago in a music room far, far away. If I'm tracking guitar or bass, I tend to use Guitar Rig. For DAW, I started with something I no longer remember the name of, then, when I switched to PCs, used Pro Audio 9 up through Sonar something or other. Think I got out around Sonar x2 or x3? Switched to Ableton Live when Gibbons bought Cakewalk. Couple version upgrades after that, I switched to Cubase Pro, primarily, but keep Live around and updated. I tend to move between them, depending on what I'm trying to accomplish.
  3. Of all the non-solid body Heritages I've lusted after, I have lusted after none so much as that one Randy won at PSP I (or was it later than that? early days anyway). 530, I think...P90s, trapeze. Of course, I can't play anywhere near as good as he (or anyone else here) does, so it'd be wasted on me, but.... @rockabilly69 that is a beautiful instrument. Love the burst!
  4. Hmm. https:// works for me and doesn't show any certificate issues.
  5. Telecasters truly are the Swiss Army knife of guitars. Used for everything from blues to jazz to reggae to rock 'n roll to pop to country to you name it. That Tokai is a real looker, too. Good luck with the band and gigs! I <3 gig reports, so I'm hoping you post a few.
  6. I laughed at the punch line. Sucked me in on that one! Glad you had a good time. It is amusing to hear my sons and their friends talk about songs that have been re-released as covers as if they're the original. I can't imagine playing in a band with that sort of disconnect.
  7. Welcome to the Club! Good luck with your search for a lefty 535/55; hope you score The One. Where in WV are you from? When we head down that way, we try to plan things so we can hit Tricky Fish in Charleston for a late lunch/early dinner; fun little joint.
  8. I've always told my boys, "Believe none of what you hear and only half of what you see."

  10. Wow, I've really been slacking in the "welcoming new members" department. So, to all of you...Welcome to The Club! And, the obligatory:
  11. Wow, looks like I've missed a fair few new members! Welcome to the Club, everyone! Some great looking guitars posted here (as always)...that H-357 is uber-cool. I'm excited to see another H-160V..you have the twin to mine Buzzel. Well, paternal twins, as your single coils look different than the stock Schallers in mine.
  12. Dang...a lot of new members here! I've really been slacking off in keeping up with this thread. So... To all the new members...Welcome to The Club! Speaking of the growing membership base, when I was talking to Ren this afternoon, he was surprised that we were up around 1400 members already. The guys and gals at the factory sure think highly of you folks!
  13. It looks like one that Brentrocks used to have. Then again, which Heritage doesn't? Ba-dum-bum.....crash! Thank you! I'll be here all week!!
  14. Welcome to the Club, BLS! I'm a Michigander (transplanted Golden Gopher, tho) myself; there are more than a couple of us here. That's a great looking guitar; looks familiar...did you buy it from a member here?
  15. A biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig HOC welcome to Fred and Bill! I wouldn't worry about the warn meter. As far as I know, nobody has ever been suspended or banned (outside of spammers) from this joint. And if anyone should be, it's me. Bill...I'm about an hour northwest of you, in Midland. There are a few Michiganders here, as you might imagine. Didn't know about the Blues thing in Lansing. I'll have to see if I can swing down there!
  16. Welcome to the Club, all ye newcomers! I really need to keep up. :\
  17. Welcome to the Club to all the newcomers I've missed. Looks like Brentster has answered your question with his usual aplomb, english. Good luck with the hunt!
  18. Holy schnikes...that is a beautiful top. Welcome to the Club!
  19. I think the only requirement is you have to be able to negotiate the registration and validation maze (hint: always keep your right hand on the wall!). HAHAHA. Welcome to the Club!
  20. There is more guitar building history in that picture than in all of Gibbon. Crazy, isn't it?
  21. Holy smokes! I must have missed it if you posted this one in the forum. Fan-freaking-tastic!
  22. That is the classiest truss rod cover I have ever seen. Even more enigmatic than the "HORNET" on my 137D.
