I spent nearly all day driving to separate guitar shops and trying whatever I found interesting, and also forced myself to try stuff out of my comfort zone.

Notables:
Fender Ritchie Kotzen sig. fat necks don’t bother me, which is a good thing because the neck on this thing is fat as hell. Sounded so good though, giant maple necks are the business.

import misha Jackson with roasted maple neck. Thing played and felt fantastic. The stock pups weren’t bad either.

peavey invective. Very sick amp, able to coax a shitload of times out of it, sounded really good loud and quiet.

strandberg boden 7. It was an original I believe, roasted maple neck. I love the endurneck, very comfortable and for such a small and very lightweight guitar, it had some major balls on it.

I had a great day guys.

Anyone buy this today? Was incorrectly listed as RGT, but it’s an RG3120 and maybe a limited run? Never seen one with a flame neck before. It went for $800.

3120 getting to be a PITA in general.
This one in particular a unicorn: rats.

I want a baritone Tele so for the time being I just put 12-52s on mine, but ultimately I want something like this at 27" at least. I don't know that I want a Balaguer, but their builder is pretty decent at least.

Fender just started offering 27.5” scale conversion necks. Just a heads up

And it's 24 frets on a Tele!? That's badass. Wish my hands could handle chords on those lengths.
And someone give that guy a chill pill. He's gonna seize!

I've looked a little at those Reverends, but Sonic Blue with a matching headstock and dark board is calling my name.

niche beyond niche. I could just buy an octaver or one of those morpheus pedals and achieve the same effect.

well I think the idea is more like a GK3... having the low string, lowest 2, or lowest 3 an octave or two dropped while keeping upper strings in regular tuning.

Which, by the way, I just came into this thread to say was my next purchase ahead of the SY-1000.

NAMM Boss demo guy totally sold me on it. Hope it fits on my Klein, that's going to be super 80s.

i've been lusting for an HSS strat. Seen an Ibanez RG460VFM locally, really wanna try it out. Anyone have experience with this specific guitar?
