    Mesa Mark Series Appreciation Thread

    What year is it? And has it been recapped? I have a V, and I’m super happy with it, but I want a III and IV now. Gotta catch ‘em all!

    Shoot, I might take it for that. I mean, I have one already, but I am the Floyd 8 fan, so I might have to give it a paint job to sparkle pink!

    Sorry, jackass (Elon Musk content)

    Very true. Though, that was the most egregious example in recent times I could think of. But yeah, we could go back 200 years and find examples.

    Sorry, jackass (Elon Musk content)

    Appealing? Sheesh. It’s obvious he just wants to try to outspend them in court. Hopefully the appeals judge rules the same. Courts scare me these days. If you can rape a girl behind a dumpster and get off with a slap on the wrist because “20 minutes” shouldn’t ruin the rest of your life...

    Sorry, jackass (Elon Musk content)

    Thank god. It was obviously a petulant tantrum thrown by a man-child desperately trying to be cool, but I’m glad the courts didn’t entertain the suit.

    Post Your GAS

    Wow! Thanks for the heads up! That’s super cool. I wish it didn’t have the pup rings, though. But there are ways to make them look cool.

    Theory questions too small for their own thread

    Ah, I didn’t realize V IV I was common. And yeah, true about them and theory. I just say it because a lot of times when something sounds good, it can be explained in some way by the theory. But the V IV I seemed weird to me.

    Theory questions too small for their own thread

    So, I’ve been doing a lot of reading on the theory behind chord progressions, and trying to make sense out of the ones that pop up in songs. I understand how voice leading works, circle progressions, and some of the other basics. But I’m stuck on this: In Sweet Child o’ Mine, the chord...

    8 String trem addicts, its time to lock in

    I have an 8 that I had to remove that piece because it held the action way too high. I love the concept, though, and agree it would be great to make those routine. For me, I’ll probably just reduce the string tension to compensate, because I like low tension strings.

    For those who seek out rare/specific guitars: how much mods are too many?

    For resale purposes? I’d say a true vintage should be completely left alone, or modded with stock/appropriate stuff. But, if it’s for you to have and enjoy,‘it’s entirely up to you. I have a Jem 77FP that the prior owner put a different (black) pickup in the bridge position, and I couldn’t...

    IA Eklundh leaves Caparison guitars.

    Agreed. And fixed that so it’s applicable for me, too.

    IA Eklundh leaves Caparison guitars.

    I just noticed the description on his site says the TT gives “perfect intonation across the entire fretboard” which is continuing to misrepresent what this TT actually does.

    IA Eklundh leaves Caparison guitars.

    I don’t want to spend $4200 on one, but I DO want one, natch. Maybe I’ll wait until no one buys them, and the price drops. I mean, it’s an 8 with Floyd, so you KNOW it’s gonna happen.

    Official Daemoness Guitars Thread

    No. What was the gist of it - anything different than what we’ve been hearing? ie that he was looking for a place and was going to continue the business.

    8 String trem addicts, its time to lock in

    I’m tempted by the perihelion as well. I have 3 of the interceptor 8s with Floyd, so I really don’t need another, but love them!

    The poor fretwork wouldn’t surprise me, but cracking of the fretboard would be weird. Maybe I’ve been living under a rock, but I don’t think I’ve seen a maple FB crack before.

    IA Eklundh leaves Caparison guitars.

    Yeah I would LOVE one, but those mofos are expensive. Brett Beebe (iirc) had one he was selling for somewhere in the 4 thousands, and I was tempted, but just couldn’t rationalize that. I’m hoping he’s no going to Strandberg, because I just can’t see them making a whole new guitar for him...

    Abasi Concepts/Larada Megathread

    GC used stuff used to be competitively priced. Now it’s higher than just about anything else around. I have zero idea who is buying these things, but people must be.

    Piezo-only "electric" guitars

    It's funny, because these things only look cool to us, because we know what's missing. I'd be willing to bet my wife would have no idea what we're drooling over. :lol: I always thought the NS-1 was cool, strictly because it had no sound hole or pickup. That's the OG, in my book.

    Abasi Concepts/Larada Megathread

    There’s a red Larada 8 that just popped up on reverb for $1700 - mint and cheap shipping - if anyone is wanting one.
