that's just the colour, 0 clues about guitars.sted - hah, thats pretty spot on. i am drawn to the burgundy, i have my girlfriend telling me to get the green. just had my brother in law check out the finish on akingsteven
- burgundy one in the sale in GAK today and it has a couple of minor issues, so I may need to keep looking (Gibson QC is bloody awful).kingsteven
- Burgundy, Ron.stoplying
- wow, whichever one you choose I'm sure sound dope!futurefood
- The non-reverse is a pleasing shape.I prefer it to the more common variant. The Eastwood Stormbird is a nice alternative.zardoz
- yeah, i spent an age trying to track down one of the 70s ibanez copies in the 00's, some of my favourite players growing up played thunderbirds, but once youkingsteven
- depend the color of your bootssephil
- see the non-reverse, the original shape just won't do. the band i'm playing in atm suits having the bass slung lower. this won out over a Dunable R2kingsteven

@Stoplying
This is for bass keyboard, but the theory works the same:
Just make it less funky/groovy etc. if needs want.

Coming to the realization that I just couldn't justify spending $3,500 on an ebony Gibson ES 335, I got the next best thing. An Epiphone Riviera Noel Gallagher edition. I'm not an Oasis fanboy at all, but the tone, build quality and specs on this guitar were what I've wanted for so many years. It arrived yesterday and it's fantastic.
- Gorgeous.mg33
- Nice choice! That subtle wood grain is beautiful.futurefood
- No shame in being an Oasis fan boy. Their first 2 records were amazing before they turned into complete twats.fooler

- Some things are just not meant to be kitbashed.Continuity
- Headstock lets it down.zardoz
- Well. If they *had* to go ahead with this horrific kitbash, then a Jackson-style headstock would probably have worked best.Continuity

- Lovely, would love a Jazz. My first bass was a Mexican Fender in sunburst.kingsteven
- I have 3 90s Japanese Fender basses tho. PB70US, Bass VI and Mustang. The P is stock with flats and its just perfection.kingsteven
- https://www.qbn.com/…
old photo, the VI was refinished and upgraded shortly after <3kingsteven - Nice! love that 70s Pbass headstock.
Mine is the JB62. I almost decided on the Pbass.futurefood - I was first looking at a short scale Fender bass, but never tried one out. That Mustang looks sweet!futurefood
- i know a lot of guitarists choose short scale for their first bass but tbh the mustang isn't 'easier' to play if you're reasonably tall. it's surprisingly...kingsteven
- similar to the P in sound, i just have regular wound strings on it and set up low for the rattle.kingsteven
- I just gave away my fender jazz bass when i moved, i miss it, though i just no longer have the timeYakuZoku
- that things is beautifulYakuZoku
- Great bass! Japan Fenders are superb imho.fisheye
- ... I would put a precision neck on it, the jazz neck is to narrow at the nut for me..fisheye
- @kingsteven it is nothing like a P bass. Totally different animal. Because pickups configuration.fisheye

- Sounds like this (playing slide for the first time ever): https://imgur.com/zu…Calderone2000
- Nice tone. I'd be more inclined to use it as a lap steel. (volume pedal and Duesenberg Multibender)zardoz

I just visited Nashville for the first time, and at the airport by baggage claim they have a few rotating Gibson displays. One display was featuring an Ebony ES-335 semi-hollow body.
I saw it and was fixated. It's an absolutely gorgeous guitar and at only $3500 it can be mine. Not likely but maybe one day!

- my first guitar was a yamaha and it served me well for many years!sarahfailin
- Change the nut and pins to Tusq it will improve the sound big time!ok_not_ok
- I bought a Yamaha FS820 last year in second hand for 120€ like new. Amazing sound for the price. Arm/Neck a bit too thin though.oey_oey
- Caused some discomfort in the beginning.
Otherwise great pick. Have fun!oey_oey - Change strings toonb

- the vox ultrasonic and starstream are so incredibly rare, less than 200 in each colour in existence. those and the 225/12 so iconically anton and ricky's guitarkingsteven
- there's no way anyone could shift these. mate of mine bought an ultrasonic in a lot worse condition than anton's. when we supported BJM a few years back I waskingsteven
- blown away by the condition considering it's been his main touring guitar for years any others i've seen have some serious finish checking and the pickguardskingsteven
- are made of some sort of bakelite and break so easily. really hope they get them back.kingsteven
- The crime is in Portland is so bad and getting worse. I'm sure some junkie did this and have no idea how rare they are.fooler
