:confused: Good question. I'll lose like five, six, seven picks in a row around the house and then they'll mysteriously and unexpectedly turn up again, one by one.

Shop around and get a used, in new condition, real American Standard Strat with a real finish and no other cut corners for around the same price or less. You'll get a Fender HSC with that too, not just a "gig bag".

:D I wanna know when "80's Strats became "vintage".

I didn't know MTV even made music video's anymore. :D

wider underwear? :p Sorry. But who can resist with a thread titled "wide nuts"? :D

Thank you for attempting to keep the thread in focus, SirN. ;)

Good point. If the guitar has bridge pins, like Call-Of-Ktulu says it does, it's not a classical.

The "balls" and "spikes" are called bridge pins. ;) Also, make sure the groove in the stem of the pin is facing the neck when you replace them. The groove is a guide for the string.

I would assume the three toggle switches near the neck pickup turn on and off each set of pickups.

I never got into collecting stomp boxes although if I did I could see myself easily carried away. Lots of neat little toys out there. I've just been using multi-fx. The first one I got was the rackmount Ensoniq DP-4. I just picked up a Yamaha Magicstomp II, which are being blown out at a really...

What ten licks and riffs should every guitarist know? Choices need not be limited to one to one style of music and should range from the 1950's to the present. If you have more than ten you may list those too.

I lit a cigarette, rolled the tape, plucked a note and started the clock at 2:15 PM, August 4, 1967 and she's still going strong. :D

That's why I'd never buy a Mexican Strat. ;)

Well, one of the things I look for in a solid body electric is a good unplugged acoustic resonance. Even an unplugged solid body electric should sound and feel "alive".

I just saw this: http://chrisguitars.com/premier-90reverb-hosa.jpg I've inquired though never bought from him but I've heard from many sources he's reputable. Sometimes you'll have to e-mail him 2 or 3 times before you get a reply.

The "best" acoustic guitar is the one that plays, feels and sounds best to you. And nine times out of ten it will be one made in the USA.

How many years must pass before a guitar can officially be deemed "vintage"? Yesterday I saw an ad for a "vintage 1988 Rickenbacker 4003". That's only 18 years old.

I ordered a couple sets of Memphis and some of the San Diego acoustics for the first time a few months ago. They're OK for the money.

How about some full frontals of the other three guitars, ez_? :D
