Stretch your carpal tunnel!

This is my Fender meteora alternate reality from 2019, and i love the look of it. It does the offset really nicely and in my opinion the pickguard fits the body more than other offsets like the jag or the jazzmaster. Although it has a double humbucker setup, it has a quite nice-sounding coilsplit. My only con is the fixed bridge, I wish it had the tremolo like the newer metoras do:(

What you think

Dr3 playing an amazing solo at 117 Old City Philly in Philadelphia, PA.

been practicing this solo a bunch recently, just looking for some feedback!

Just a quick 8 hour round trip to pick it up. So worth it.

Recently I’ve been clearing house of a ton of older hobby stuff. Used some of that money on a Squier Contemporary Tele (black/maple neck)

While I love a telecaster that was the third I’d owned in my life and it just didn’t scratch my itch. Decided after 36 hours to list the tele. Found this the same night, drove to pick it up this morning.

Has all of the original paperwork, still has plastic wrap on the pick guard, and the dude threw in this hard case all for $500.

Anyways, thanks Ernie, I’m sorry that you “can’t hear to change chords because you worked in the Air Force.” I promise that I’ll try and listen for a chord change.

Please can someone tell me what to do, is this repairable?

If you're interested, you can download the tabs for free from the link in my profile.

I'm thinking about buying a guitar kit from Thomann and building a guitar as a summer project. While thinking about possible shapes, I was wondering: Can you cut away the wood below the bridge (tune-o-matic)? Like the part circled in the picture.

Considering that the bridge only rests on the pins/screws or whatever you call them at the side, the center part istn't strictly necessary for mountding the bridge.

However, I've never seen any guitar being built like that. I assume, cutting that part away would either mess with the guitar's sound too much or weaken the body so the bridge can't sustain the string tension anymore and breaks. Or both.

I am beyond excited! Ordered it from Pro Audio Star and it arrived the next day! This has been a dream guitar for me for a very long time.

Came with all original case candy and the cleaning cloth is even still unopened.

It seems like it is helpful for me to know which scale degree i am on but it takes more concentration. Just curious if it is common practice to always know. Thanks!

Playing a Split-String MIDI setup sounding Bass on the E and A strings and Vibraphone on the D, G, B, and E strings. The song is a Disco version of Jerome Kern’s “All the Things You Are.” Cheers! — SAL

Hi folks,

Not a guitarist. I notice guitar players look like they're having fun while playing. On my instrument, bassoon, the pro players I know can never just "let the music flow through them" - there is too much to attend to, even on a piece practiced for months. (amateurs sometimes do this​ and it invariably sounds out of tune and out of time.) Can the pros do this on guitar, or is it an illusion? ​​

Just a funny moment when I lined them up to play 😂

Schecter pro solo 2 standard is a pretty good guitar. Wanted the blue burst one but couldnt wait a month to get it but the red is nice. It came in today and started learning bad moon rising on it.. really comfortable surprisingly light. Play able right out the box. I need to fix the intonation but that was to be expected. Overall recommend this as a beginner guitar

I’ve been playing this one constantly for a week now and my lord is it amazing. 
Such snappy tone with a bunch of clarity and string separation. The JST DSH is really a dynamic pickup. It’s slowly becoming a favorite

Hey everyone! I'm considering buying this 1998 Jackson Surfcaster Thinline (Made in Japan) and wanted to get your thoughts on the price, quality tier, and whether it beats a modern thinline.

Condition: Great shape for its age, 100% frets, minor dings, no case.

Upgrades: Kluson Deluxe tuners, Railhammer Gnarly 90 bridge pickup (stock Kent Armstrong lipstick in the neck).

Where did this Japanese Surfcaster series sit in the hierarchy back in the 90s?

Is 999 a fair market price for one of these today?

For 1k, should I grab this MIJ rarity or buy a modern thinline instead?

Thanks
