    TS-9 with Mods?

    I have both - the TS-9 (modded by analog-man) and an original 808-TS (In the Ibanez UE-300 unit - btw - a great unit ... luckily somewhat overlooked by the TS-snobs :-) ) ... and the ananlog-man modded one has a slight edge over ther original, esp. in terms of definition ... its a little bit...

    What (Ibanez) guitar is this?

I have a Vintage Guitar price guide and I CONSTANTLY see some models go on e-bay WAY ABOVE and some other models WAY BELOW what they say ... so dont get tricked by that "theoretical" value in the guides... e-bay is where you really have to step up...

    Any thoughts on Carvin?

    I have some "high profile" guitars (gretsch, gibson, PRS) ... and let me say, that the carvin I own (a ´94 DC127), in terms of qual. is WAY ABOVE them. I just swaped out PUPs on my LP-Studio, and know how the cavity looks. The Gibson screws (the ones on the rear cover) go right into the wood...

    baritone guitars !!!!

    Does The Word "Lawsuit" Really Make You Think a Guitar Is Somehow Better?

    as a matter of fact, its just the "open book" portion of the headstock that was part of the "lawsuit" ... and about 90% of all junk sold on ebay aint lawsuit, b/c they dont have the gibson open book headstock. btw the lawsuit was never ruled, as both parties came to an extra-courtal-agreement

    fender serial number?

    i'm not 100% sure, but if they follow the "M"exico scheme, it would be a C=corea N=ninety 2=2 corean made in 1992 ... but that's just guessing alfred

    baritone guitars !!!!

    standard would be: BEADF#B just think of it this way ... if you put a capo on a Baritone's 5th fret you'd have a regular guitar ... so all chord patterns are the same (well, except those that involve open strings) on regular guitars, i play drop-D, so my baritone is set up: AEADF#B (the low...

    Epiphone SG question...

    dont expect ANYTHING .... plywood and photo-top ... usually you get what you pay for ... maybe a better idea to get something "better" used, e.g. w/ decent wood and a set neck ... [just 2 weeks ago, a 1980ies hohner neck-thru guitar went was sold on e-bay for 122 bucks - now THAT is a sweet...
