    How do you feel about Focusrite?

    Maaaaaannn that takes me back to the (red) iPod nano being a head turner because it was an unusual color. I know I've seen them on something else since but that's the only one I remember. Bummer Focusrite's color actually is red because if it was still blue that'd be a great collaboration idea.

    Trevor Strnad dead at 41

    Holy shit I saw some talk about this on twitter and really was hoping I was misinterpreting, hopped over here cause someone always has a link. Damn. Just fucking...damn. That is some bullshit. The dude was 41. With the suggestion that it may have been suicide too, just...god. Of all the people...

    NGD! ESP HORIZON FR-II HALF MATTE BLACK

    Yep; this looks like a Blytheryn NGD. HNGD my dude; these things are metal machines. Nice to see someone get a crazy deal. Seems like the days of absurdly low dollar MiJ goodness randomly popping up on the secondary market are pretty much gone.

    Agile brand is for sale?

    I had to triple check the date on this post to make sure this wasn't the old thread getting bumped :lol: It would be cool to see what someone else would do with the brand, though. I've got a lot of respect for Kurt and have gone through (and recommended) many of his guitars (I still keep a...

    NGD Caparison

    Man I've been GASing for a Capa for...about just as long. HNGD my man- this thing looks (and sounds) sick.

    Why are you happy right now?

    Today is my last day. Starting a new job on Tuesday. Happy is probably overstating it a bit, as I'm nervous as all hell, but I'm relieved to get out of here and on with my life. This place has been bleeding me dry and taking advantage of me for years, to the point where the current plan is to...

    NGD: Ich bin ein Berliner

    Man I am not about Hapas at all, only heard great things on them but I don't think they make a single shape that wows me. But dude OH my GOD what even IS that top!! HNGD my friend; that thing looks like a killer instrument.

    BUYER BEWARE: PLOY 770

    Ah, the classic name and shame. Always satisfying. What a dirtbag. -- Now that I think about it though, I haven't heard of many scammers making off with people's cash on this board (luthiers notwithstanding lol) and I've been kicking around these parts for a while now. I can only remember one...

    Playback recording sounds different

    Man, drums are the worst with this :lol: I'll be tracking something and in sounds killer going in, but then I play it back and bro I'm barely even on beat. Like the frustrating part isn't finding out that my tone / tempo / playing in general isn't great- it's not being able to tell that it...

    BUYER BEWARE: PLOY 770

    +1. Maybe a different story if we're talking about a $5000 PRS or something, but for a $250 pedal, I'd just eat crow and move on. Sucks, man. Sorry you got got.

    [NGD] Padalka Pluto 8 SC

    You figured correct. Any Padalka NGD is a happy NGD. I don't think I've literally ever seen a miss.

    Currents - any fans?

    Big ups for Currents. I bought a guitar specifically so that I could get it setup to be able to try and learn Forget Me. Learning that song taught me more about playing leads than years of practice did. Whole band is absurdly talented.

    NGD Holo Flash Jem.

    My dream vacation is to Pondman's garage. This came out insane. Which is dumb, because they all do, so I feel like that isn't even really a compliment at this point. But damn this is hot. I'm such a sucker for some wenge :yum:

    Have you ever bought a guitar that solved your G.A.S. for a while?

    Yeah, I bought my swirled RG920 around the same time I placed my deposit for my FT6. The cost of the custom was head and shoulders above what I ever expected to spend on a guitar (save for the B2 I like to fantasize about owning someday), so I told myself no more gear until it gets delivered, at...

    I fucked up taking my guitar to guitar center...

    Sucks you weren't ultimately happy with it, but it sounds like selling it was the best answer and leaving it as-is was gunna bug you. Glad they were open to it. Definitely pick up a beater and screw around with it, something you can afford making mistakes on. When I first started to take guitar...
