    New Project Day: I have my work cut out for me…

    Everything is in so just assembling, wiring, and setup left. Got the strings on tuned them, went to stretch them, and the high e snapped. Of course lol. Getting close, though.

    New Project Day: I have my work cut out for me…

    probably 5-7 passes of 1500 and 3000 grit sand paper, wet sanding every time. Very light touch.

    New Project Day: I have my work cut out for me…

    Thanks! Yeah, originally I planned to tape off the binding, but I like the purple stain over it better than a bright white. Probably the “wrong” call, but I like it.

    New Project Day: I have my work cut out for me…

    All done with the refinish. Now just have to do the back and wait on hardware to show up. Here’s all the hardware loosely set in place for a quick idea of what it’ll look like when I’m done.

    New Project Day: I have my work cut out for me…

    Sorry for the lack of updates. Been working a ton of OT at work lately. Quick little update, trying to get all the glue and gunk ended up taking some of the white off. So my options were sand it down and leave it natural, do a solid paint job, or give staining a try. Never stained before so I...

    New Project Day: I have my work cut out for me…

    So today (yesterday at this point?) I made a drive down an hour south and picked up a 2014 Schecter KM7. I bought it for next to nothing knowing that it was in very rough shape. Well, once I picked it up I realized it was in much rougher shape than I initially thought. The neck was broken off at...

    EMG Retroactives with 18v/24v mod?

    I recently switched my standard EMG equipped guitars over to 24v battery packs. I have a guitar equipped with EMG Retroactive Hot 70s I believe and was wondering if the 24v mod would do anything for them. Anyone try it? Looks like it can handle up to 27v like other EMGs, just didn’t know if it...

    NGD: Gambling on Guitar Center Paid Off!

    Didn’t bust out a level or anything yet, but in initial quick setup everything feels smooth. And thanks for all the congrats! I don’t know who messed up, but I’ll gladly buy them a beer if we ever cross paths haha.

    NGD: Gambling on Guitar Center Paid Off!

    Not too long ago I was looking through Guitar Center’s used guitars online and saw something weird. They had a guitar for a bit over $400 and listed as a Schecter Omen 7. I clicked on it and looked at the pics, and what was pictured (in a very dim unclear pic) was an Omen Elite 8MS. I tried...

    NGD: Schecter Banshee-7 P

    I’ve been away from these forums (and away from the music world in general) for the last 10 years or so. So, what better way to jump back in with a NGD. I had been looking for a second Schecter 7 to sit next to my Loomis and had almost given up on MarketPlace/OfferUp/etc when this popped up for...

    Thanks for the replies, folks!

    Schecter Diamond Active HB-105S vs EMG

    So I have an old Jackson DXMG that I’m trying to trade and someone offered me a Schecter Demon 7 for it. I’m considering it, but pretty sure I’ll want to swap the stock Schecter Diamond Active HB-105S pickups with 707s. I’ve never tried these particular pickups, but never loved anything company...

    Magic the Gathering!

    So, earlier this month I decided to put together a Modern deck again so I could play magic other than Legacy. I looked for a deck that I could enjoy the playstyle of, was powerful, and had been around for quite a while to try and dodge bans. I had my set of Splinter Twins in the mail to me when...

    Magic the Gathering!

    Here's my maindeck for Standard right now. Should be -4 Rakshasa, -2 Gurmag and +3 Hangarback, +2 Ob Nixilis, +1 Den Protector but I've already spent too much on this deck for right now. I'll be picking up the finishing pieces over the next couple weeks hopefully. Gideon is notably absent...

    Magic the Gathering!

    Haha, true that. I mainly just started focusing on Modern and then Legacy. Standard seems kinda fun now. I mean, it's all a bunch of piles of value cards, but I'm digging it.

    Magic the Gathering!

    I'm putting together my first Standard deck in over a year (since Born of the Gods was released). Siege Rhino really is quite a card...

    Magic the Gathering!

    I'd help you out, but I don't know anything about Standard right now. :/ Playing in another small Legacy event tomorrow and probably playing this Tin Fins build. Only proxies are Underground Seas.

    Magic the Gathering!

    Nice. That's what I'm working on right now. I have a TCGPlayer shopping cart open right now trying to decide if I'm gonna buy my last two Entombs right now. Then all I'd need is the big money cards (Forces and Duals). Then again, I might shift to Tin Fins and just say eff the Forces as well, haha.
