Second hand Electrical Guitar Company guitar, built like absolute tanks and resale value is solid if things go to pot. Either that or a Dunable R2. Although I've had bizarre GAS for something shreddy and multiscale recently, no idea why as I don't tune down ever and can't play super fast either.
I’m sure like most Teisco’s it’s playability & sound doesn’t live up to it’s cool aesthetics.
Hahah that suits me just fine. Aesthetics come first, playability I can take care of, and sound is in the eye of the beholder.TeenageShutdown! wrote: ↑Thu May 09, 2019 5:02 pm

Oh good for calling me out on that, ha! I think the vintage Japanese are really cool. They had a lot of really cool original designs. What’s no cool is how they can go into dumb prices. Seems like the more pickups & switches the more unreasonable the price. Going with a used weird modern alternative is a no brainer to me IMO. The garage bum in me is quite happy with a cheap Squire offering.mgeek wrote: ↑Thu May 09, 2019 11:01 pmQuite surprised to get such a comment from someone named after a series of particularly raucous garage compilations!

ha- yeah, mostly I agree. There are loads of cool shaped ones that are basically have the same hardware, flat fretboards and pickups as the cheapos, but that one...transcends all that for me. Not that I actually ever would spend 2k on any guitar!TeenageShutdown! wrote: ↑Fri May 10, 2019 6:49 am

I'm happy to wait til I get lucky on a pile of broken bits for £100

After some "intervention", my ET-460 now has the playability to match its looks and is one of the last guitars I'd let go.Totally.stevejamsecono wrote: ↑Fri May 10, 2019 10:45 am2 and a half Yamaha SGs from the 70s and be happy for the rest of my days.
No affilitation but there just so happens to be one of those Rivieras at New Kings Road guitars right now...Zork wrote: ↑Wed May 08, 2019 11:43 pmEpiphone Riviera, the korean model from the 90s with minihums, a CV Jag and a Höfner Contemporary Club Bass. If I'm lucky I got some money left for a korean Danelectro U2 Baritone.
Budget guitars are good enough for me and these would be a cool addition to my collection.
