Went to look at the clearance import Guilds at GC, and ended up with this P250E Memoir. Being primarily an electric player, I'm not qualified to speak with any authority, but I think it's great at the clearance price. It has new guitar smell. It plays darn good straight off the GC wall with no...

Partial eclipse visible from Northern Nevada today, slightly obscured by clouds.

Okay thanks for looking! Here again is my 1970 Starfire II bass. It has been hot mess modded, el kabonged, and de fretted! I bought it with the hot mess mods to the electronics. I sold it once. I found it again in another pawn shop a few years later and bought it again! Then I El Kabonged it...

I didn't want to need a bass amp. I had a nice little Ashdown combo that served me well for years. I 'loaned' it to an old friend and realized about a year ago that I'll not get it back. So I've had no bass amp for too long. My local pawn shop gave me a good deal on this used Hartke HD500 for...

My sis wants to buy her husband a tenor sax for a gift. Soliciting help from anybody who knows more than us (zilch) about buying a used instrument. At least of good "student" or intermediate quality. Thanks!

My wife and I were lucky enough to see Snarky Puppy live last night. An amazing showcase of talent and performers dedicated to mastering their craft. I was particularly impressed by the bass work, but each member is as accomplished as the next. Wonderfully complicated material, couldn't be...

Called Mr Ed's. Everyone is invited to play. Find the Guild!

Do you have a great guitar playing stool/ chair? Years ago I decided to get a dedicated music chair so I bought a Quicklock musicians chair. Here's a photo followed by the reasons why I hate it: 1 its too big, the footprint is bigger than the stool and the back sticks out. takes up space. 2...

Soon I'll need some new strings on the x500. I don't want the bridge moving one bit. The intonation is perfect, at least to my ear. I'd hate to have anything change, but I would like to take all the strings off to clean the fretboard. Thanks!

There's many reasons why LTG is the best place on the net. This is one of the best: @shihan (Dennis) offered this beauty here for members only, asking only what he paid for it (from @GAD ). Simply put, Dennis "left money on the table" with this deal, just to "keep it in the family". A very kind...

Last night I thought my T1RVT had failed. I was devastated. I powered everything up as usual, but just a thin, quiet, distorted signal. I tried everything, different pickups, pedal setting, went direct to amp. Switched cables. Powered off and re-seated the tubes. No luck. I'm really attached to...

I haven't bought a guitar for myself in years, but GAS finally got the best of me. So, to avoid buying an expensive guitar - I sent an ebay offer on this Detonator and found it was in my "cart" the next day. Always wanted to try a Detonator, and I should have sooner! I love this thing! When I...

I'd never heard of Creston guitars before reading an article about Jay Farrar of Son Volt. His love of Woody Guthrie inspired him to collect some old items from Guthrie's childhood home which ended up in a guitar http://crestonguitars.com/guitars/jay_farrars_okemah_artifact_custom The Creston...

For Sale 1985 Guild D40 in OHSC as new condition. I have $1500 invested in this guitar. Price for LTG members is $1500 plus the cost of a guitar box and actual shipping. After a few days I plan on listing for the masses on ebay with significant price increase. For more photos and discussion...

This guitar, though more plain in embellishments, will be really hard to let go. Its for sale, sorta. Pretty much. But, I did have an emotional moment when I really got to play this guitar at home. I was bringing it into tune, got it just right (these must be newer strings). I start playing a...

I'm happy to bring these guitars into the fold here. Even though I don't intend to keep them, it was such a thrill to bring them home. As posted in another thread, my friends who own a pawn shop bought two Guild acoustics in Southern California at a movie/TV production studio auction. A story is...

I think I want a looper pedal for fairly simple self accompaniment. Just for guitar but I wouldn't mind a mic input. I want to be able to record and toggle between at least three song parts-ie verse chorus bridge. So, it seems I need a three track (or more) looper. I've never used one. Any...
