    Need advice: Mayones or Strandberg?

    If you can try them both, if you have to buy blind mayones 100%. Way more consistent QCwise and more likely to be a good fit. Strandbergs are very peculiar and you might not like it for sure even if you get a flawless one, but then again from all accounts if it clicks with you it clicks really hard

    Opening Acts That Stole The Show

    Opeth opening for Dream Theater during progressive nation 2009, never heard of them before that, became one of my favourite bands.

    Aristides Guitars

    Man i should really disable notifications for this thread. Every time a new comment pops up i get a mail with the name of the thread, and while glancing at the phone i always think it's a mail from aristides telling me that the guitar is ready (which won't realistically be until late march at...

    I think i legit like the raw finish the more then the normal ones. I'm a monochromatic/satin-y guy anyway and i have borderline OCD in regard to scratches, dings etc. so this checks most of my boxes.

    EBMM NAMM 2019

    TBH don't think the gloss neck is as big a deal as some think, I have a JPXI that has a glossy neck but it honestly never felt sticky even after full gigs. What i really found disappointing about the new majesty line was all the marketing hype they put behind the Tiger Eye only for it to turn...

    The .strandberg* Thread

    Regarding true temperament i get the idea of having a better intonated fretboard and it's great. But wouldn't it be an absolute nightmare when changing tuning/string gauge?

    The Fishman Fluence Thread

    Anthracite grey with black hardware and black nickel PUs. My second choise (and hopefully next build) was actually Royal red with gold hardware

    The Fishman Fluence Thread

    Ordered a 070R myself last week and i'm excited as hell. I ended up choosing the moderns in the end, after subjecting myself and my bandmates to various blind test. Both the classic and the moderns sounded really good to our ears so the (admittedly silly) main reason i went with the moderns was...

    Abasi Concepts/Larada Megathread

    Come on! It's 2019 and the internet it's kind of a thing right now. You can't expect something like this not to come out, especially since the main audience of this kind of guitars is fans of a semi niche genre that has is roots on the internet and in this very forum

    Abasi Concepts/Larada Megathread

    I really don't get the body shape. I see the word ergonomic used a lot when talking about tosin's design but i find really hard to wrap my head around that huge upper shoulder. I fail to see how that helps playability.

    The Fishman Fluence Thread

    Probably a stupid question but i literally know nothing about wiring. Is it possible to wire a classic set so that voice 2 is with the knob pushed in? If i go with classics the hot rod voice would probably be the one i end up using the most, and i'd prefer to have it so i can't accidentally...
