I saw this Standard yesterday, and I’ve never seen one like it. Dates to a 2000, everything looks fully legit, but….I’ve never seen one. It is in Lemonburst LP Standard with a single zebra humbucker and a coil tap. It has a 2 piece bridge with a standard tune o matic bridge and a Gibson TP-6...

Still chasin!

Still on the hunt!

Looking for another Custom in either Black, White, or Silverburst. Let me know what you got!

The amplifier is completely stock.

Update! I finally got around to troubleshooting and with no preamp tubes installed, there is now air raid siren. The only time it happens is when I put a tube in V2. Tried many different tubes, with no avail. Suggestions? Thanks fellas!

Ok I’m officially stumped. I have a 78 JMP that started whistling on me at my last rehearsal. I assumed it was a preamp tube, so I replaced them. Now, with nothing plugged in…it sounds like a dang air raid siren! Suggestions?

I own a music store, and the Jackson resurgence lately has blown my mind! My 15 year old son, who plays, said it’s because of all the Youtube “influencers” (whatever that means) are using them. I’ve sold more Jacksons in the last 3 months, than Ive sold since 2005. There is a silver lining...

I’m still on the hunt..

Looking for an SG Standard. Not concerned with the color. Whatcha got?

Their guitar player had an absolutely crushing guitar tone and I am on the hunt for what pedals he was hitting the front end of his 800 with. Cheers!

Jesus Murphy! It seems as if everyone is finding the highest price they can find online and kickin er up an extra 20%. Keep in mind, I’m an old school forum trader/seller from back in the Harmony Central days, but it feels like it used to be a place to connect with other musicians, make friends...

As a dealer, I was furious to see the gigantic price increase as of Jan 1. I was proud of Orange, again as a dealer, for not following suit, and they just announced this week that their UK based gear is all basically doubling in cost. While I love both lines, $6-$7k for a half stack is ridiculous

Marshall for me

I can say, as a music store owner and an amp repair tech, it’s a big deal. I can’t get anything. Some of the amp lines that I’m a dealer for won’t even accept warranty repair returns because they don’t have tubes. It’s not the end of tube amps, but it is definitely hurting the people who repair...
