Yep…so killer that I decided to keep that one!!! 🔥 The Junior is available and ready to rock! I have two of them and just need to find a home for this one. I prefer the tobacco color, so this one should bring out the Billie Joe Armstrong, Blackberry Smoke, or Mountain vibes just as well.

This Junior is mint and has all the upgrades you would do anyway. In reference, a place like Dave’s in LaCrosse would sell it for $995, but it wouldn’t have the upgrades and you’d pay tax. I can meet up with local Minnesota/Wisconsin buyers. Reasonable offers will be considered. NO TRADES! 2022 LP Junior w/SD Antiquity P90 and MCB Savvy bridge $1,300 shipped https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/msg/d/hopkins-gibson-les-paul-jr-usa-2022/7821258535.html

Still available and accepting reasonable offers!

Correct - personally wound by M.J. 🔥🤘

Installed once, LOVED them, but sold the guitar. Plenty of lead wire, all screws/parts included. What do they sound like? Exactly like the description on the SD CS webpage: “Vintage, sweet, and smooth.” ***These pickups were hand wound by M.J. at the SD Custom Shop, and ordered “aged.” $300 shipped, PayPal-ed SD CS Queenbucker details

Loved seeing George & Carmie, my brother Ray, Badger D, Shred, Bill, meeting Sir Dan in person for the first time, and a huge bear hug to Z (Carfish7) - you are the Adrian Smith to my Dave Murray. Ted...I see all the time, but it was great talking with you to and from the venue that is the 4321 Club. And of course... Bruce. You rule and your club is my favorite club to play at. Thank you for your hospitality and I'm sorry we didn't get to chat more. See you at Target??? Can't wait 'til the next one!

I hope to be there!

I'm not connecting with the cynicism here. Dave Grohl rocks...period. I didn't like the last FF album as much as previous ones, but the songs I liked, I really liked. His speech rang true, and like Brooks alluded to: Anybody that wears a Slayer T-shirt at the Grammys gets automatic cred in my book (and I hate Slayer...now, an Iron Maiden t-shirt would have made it even better). Here's the real story though. Bruce Springsteen, Joe Walsh, Dave Grohl, Rusty Anderson, and Brian Ray on stage JAMMING WITH PAUL MCCARTNEY?!?!?!?!?! Did you see the look on Springsteen and Walsh's faces? These guys have more than their share of "cred" and they looked like kids at a Beatles concert. Dave Grohl was having a blast and I can bet that this had to be up there with one of his greatest life moments ever. C'mon...jamming on stage in front of a gajillion people WITH PAUL MCCARTNEY?!?!?!?!? BTW: Rusty Anderson kicks ass and Brian Ray does too (look him up, he was hired to play both guitar and bass for Paul). Lastly, kudos to Abe Laboriel Jr. Cool tribute to Ringo, and one of the best drummers around. http://youtu.be/JhR4zDOa8Zc

Jeez...forget about it already. Ted, do what you want to do with it. I suggest this topic be closed....ymmv.

Not trying to be a smart guy, but I like the Seth's. My vote is for returning them. YMMV.

HUGE FF fan here, but.... Disappointed in this CD. I bought it at Best Buy for $9.99. I've listened and listened to it in the car and nothing catches my ear besides "Rope." YMMV.

This is a perfect description of EMGs. Even if you do play metal, there are better passive pickups that come to mind (I like Duncan Custom Customs, Distortions paired with a good ole 59 in the neck......ymmv). I love Steve Lukather and have most of his solo albums and his tone always sucks. Toto IV, with him, his old Les Pauls and Marshalls (Rosanna outro solo) is great. He always claims in interviews that his EB Luke guitars are "the best on the planet." I've been tempted, but after playing Ted's Luke, my suspicions were confirmed: I personally don't like EMGs. Again, ymmv.

Savage Macht 6 - used.

1778T owner here also! I got one of the last new, USA ones for $490 from Dave's in La Crosse back in August 2008. For guitars with electronics, you can't beat 'em IMO. YMMV. As for guitars you can actually buy now? First, check for used guitars. I got a very nice, like new, Larrivee Parlor 09 for $895. The 03 series is nice also. Taylor D and GS series are nice and I'm sure you can get those used. So, I can't really tell you WHAT to buy, but I can say to look for used deals.

Yup. I should stop by Savage in the afternoon, then off to the 4-3-2-1.
