Scored this today for 80! Looks like i am set on tool boxes. 

Not bad!!

 

Seth ain't been active here in like a month huh2.gif

 

3 tool boxes for 260 total. Not bad compared to 800+ for them new!! You said you had the roll around 5 drawer, right? 

 

I was starting to wonder about him after he said he was splitting from the wife and then disappeared.  I was suppose to exchange digits with him, but hadn't yet. Maybe give him a jingle if you have the number.

For anyone that has stuff to list on Ebay or CL, THIS is the time of year to do it. You will get top dollar as everyone is MC Hammer rich for the minute. 

 

I have a bunch of stuff on Ebay I bought off of ebay right before Xmas. The bids are already double what I paid a month ago when everyone is broke. Takes money to make moneys!!

about to pull the trigger on the tritrix kit and a dayton dta 120. I think 40w per channel will be plenty for my apartment. 

 

i thought about running them active (just buying the drivers and enclosures) with minidps and a 4 channel amp but thats probably overkill. and more expensive.

Stopped by Capitol Guitars at lunch. Was funny. Largest Jackson dealer in the midwest by far. The idiots that stop in are horrible though. They found it funny that I played guitars for an hour and never wanted to plug in. Told the owner that I am interested in the action and feel and the sound will follow the pickups and amp. Sure wood changes the tone even on an electric, but more important is the comfort.Regrettably I don't like my dream guitar. What I thought it was going to be good for it wasn't. Randy designed it to play sitting down in a classical position (which I am by far the most comfortable in) but he was a little imp of a guy and not the jolly green giant. Needless to say it was too small for me. I guess I get to get a boring Soloist instead :)Got some glowing reviews on my sloppy fingerings. Said I played better than 95% of their clients. Amazing since until last week it has been 20 years since I've held an axe.

I want to hear you play.Next time I come over.I'll bring the masters bourbon, and some tobacco!;-)
NO. Next time we should have snow and we go for a rip. Realize what I can play now is theory, not songs. 20 years ago is a long time to remember anything, lol.Might go grab this as an interim solution:http://www.musicgoroundroseville.com/p/254741/used-jackson-pro-soloist-sl2-electric-guitar-transparent-red-burstIt is setup right...although it is Indonesian so I will need to spend some time with the neck to make sure it doesn't suffer from fret buzz like so many low action guitars (including the Jacksons) do.
Sounds like maybe you need to go to a factory and design your own axe.J
Na, I'll shop for used ones and rotate. Too many other suckers willing to pay $6k for a guitar that I can buy a year later for $2k. I know it means I'll have to flip a bunch but that is okay. When I find a cherry like my '56 I'll keep it.
Well if you find yourself looking for anything specific I can keep an eye out down here. I visit a few shops a month.

neck through (oiled not painted neck) Jackson soloist either made in Japan or the USA. I'd prefer Japan actually as it should be $500 vs $1200. Sl2 or sl4 preferred as well as I'd like dual humbuckers. Sl1 or sl3 OK as well though if the rest is there. If I were ordering it'd be with a Floyd rose but buying used (is noncommittal) means I'd buy either to replace the ibanez sooner

Fret buzz is a concern on the Jacksons that aren't high quality. The Indonesia one I played this week wasn't dialable. Played with the truss rod to fix it but no cigar

No SL's on craigslist down here at the moment, but I will be hitting a few shops this week for myself. If I see anything worth noting, I'll shoot you a message.

Jesus H Christmas on a pogo stick.

I eat good.

As did I. Freshly made sauce and turkey meat balls, with spaghetti.

That is Indonesian or Mexican. If there is anything "bolting" on the neck it is a sure sign. Thanks for looking. I watch CL nationwide smile.png ...although not often enough. If you see something when you are randomly in a store though let me know. smile.png

Just for reference a shot of a Jap or US made oiled neck will look like this:
