MF had these for half off, so I bagged one just like this only with a little more grain showing through the "white blonde" finish.
I've always wanted this particular guitar in this particular finish, so I jumped for it.
By the way, this is my five hundredth post. Do I win anything?
I posted this in another forum, but I think it's more relevant here. GCs sold jillions of these things. Did you get burned too?

More Ampeg outrage!
The V-412TA 4x12" Ampeg slantfront cabinet mentioned in the previous messages has been sitting...
Speaking of the MK-219, GC has a pretty remarkable deal this month:
An Oktava MK-219 plus a Bellari (Rolls) MP105 tube preamp - $99.99!
OK, this isn't the "best" condenser microphone, nor is it the "best" preamp, but they're both serviceable units for a budget home studio and I can't imagine a...
Gibson is closing out the Les Paul "Standard," "Deluxe" and "Standard Plus" guitars and remaining stocks are going for deep discounts at most of the chains.
I nearly bought a new Gibson Les Paul "Standard Plus" today For $1599 at GC, but passed as it had too many store dings on it (though...
Great deal this month.
Get a pair, test them against each other and take the weak one back if they're both not 100%.
Two good Oktava MK-319s at $75 each is one bomb of a bargain.
Has anyone with any expertise checked these out yet?
I've seen one of each at my local GC, but haven't seen anything about them on the net.
The ribbon microphone is the ML52 and the tube microphone is the MKL2500.
I'm still struggling with Cubase and am at present just doing rudimentary test tracks (even after all these months).
Last night, I was recording some microphone tests and noticed that when I recorded the track, the level was proper on the VU and monitored properly, but when I played it back...
Am getting Cubase 5 set up and have installed some DirX effects I felt I needed, including AutoTune v.3.
When I run my recorded vocal track through AT as an effect, I sound like I'm in a barrel or going through a phaser or something. Very odd. Turning down the correction speed helps some, but...
I need to get some active studio monitors and I need to know what's the "Best Buy" under $500 a pair, long discount...as well as where the best deals are for them.
I particularly need advice from folks who have used a variety of them enough to really get a feel for the differences. I asked...
Not mine, and too rich for my blood, but check this thing out:

What's your guess on the final price? I'm guessing $12K -$15K. If they can't pull that, this economy really is...
OK, here's the deal: Finally, after two months and five attempts, someone was able to correctly grind lenses so I could see well enough to read text on a monitor, so it looks like I'm about ready to bite the bullet and start recording on the SeaSound & DAW that I set up this summer.
What I...
Those of you who caught the news of my massive Labor Day raid on Guitar Center on alt.guitar and elsewhere will be gratified to know that I now have the SeaSound and another rack device tastefully mounted in the floor-demo SKB rack unit I got for $10.
Now things are looking more organized and...

Against my better judgment, I got up early and went to the Guitar Center Labor Day sale at 0800. The July 4 sale was a dud and I almost didn't go this time.
It was a good day, and I knew I was on a winning roll when I saw that they had dumped the...
Has anyone used this software yet? I'm considering it, once I figure out what platforms it will and won't work on. I've read one review, but it was not useful.
Would appreciate any real-world experience anyone has with this.
If this has already been discussed, please direct me to the thread...
Can anyone tell me what the difference is in these? They look identical in the advertisments except for the finish. The M-72 has a lower list price, but I don't immediately see why.
BTW, for those who missed it in the Pilot thread, I got the M-77 and it was fine. The weird blue color is kind...
Having had it to the eyes with the S/PDIF hardware incompatibilities between my J-Station and my recording system, I'd like to know if there are any software guitar modeling packages on par with J-Station or POD that I may use directly on my guitar tracks and dump the inefficient hardware...
Anyone doing this? I'm having a terrible time getting Cubase 5 to work with my new SeaSound. Bluescreens and a crash every time it tries to load after installation. It's never loaded, once. Installing the R6 upgrade makes no difference.
It installs and runs on my office computer, but not...
Once again, I have conflicting advice:
If one has other PCI devices - such as a modem - installed on a computer that is being used for audio recording through a PCI buss, does the mere installed presence of the other device, even if not in simultaneous use, degrade or otherwise impair the...
