Is there a huge difference between the neck on a SG '61 vs. an SG Standard? I hear the standard has a chunkier neck as compared to the slim taper '61. Yes I can just go to my local guitar shop, but I don't go there much as it's out of the way and I only go there when it's necessary.

Why is it almost impossible to find a 24.75" scale guitar with a Floyd Rose? It seems like all the guitars that are equipped with a double locking trem are 25.5" scale. Does it have to do with the shorter scale affecting the tension of the strings making tuning harder to maintain? I have only...

So after buying my Westcreek, I was wondering why other budget brands like Epiphone (and others) don't offer stainless steel frets? I mean, Westcreek can offer a killer guitar with SS frets for a fraction of the cost of a high end Epiphone, and the Epi's usually come with bad fretwork that...

I have found my new favorite pick! I ordered these the other day and tried them today and wow, they are wicked good. I was using D'Addario Nylpro 1.4mm gripped picks and while they are good, I wanted to try a pick without a grip and they are much, much better. These are a little thinner too and...

Has anyone here tried the Guitar Fetish Crunchy Pat pickups? I'm looking at getting a bridge and neck high output set for my Westcreek Revenge. These pickups are priced well, but would they be too good to be true? Crunchy Pat H/O Humbuckers

Hey all! It's been a while. I had to take a break from forums for a while (and the internet in general) but I decided to make an appearance again today! I bought this Westcreek Revenge about a month ago as I wanted a guitar for chug/heavier tuned songs and I didn't want to spend a fortune so I...

Picked up the Boss Katana 110 bass amp today! I have the guitar amp (Katana 100 MK2) and this will go along nicely with it! Lots to dissect so I'll be a while getting used to it. I have the GAFC footswtich already for my guitar Katana so that works out even better!

I'm curious to know if US prices hit the pocket book like Canadian prices do. Say if you buy an Epiphone LP for example in the US for $599, and the same guitar in Canada is $899, does the US price hit the same as the Canadian price? Like does it feel like you are spending $900 in the US when...

I wanted to try and remove the pickup covers on my SG Pro because I enjoy the aesthetic of not having the covers on. Do I need a soldering iron to remove them or can I just score the solder with a razor blade and remove the covers with a set of pliers? I'm really hoping there would be a set of...

What is with dudes trying to sell a used guitar for almost the same price as a new one of the same model? This guy is trying to sell a used Epi Les Paul Muse for $600 CAD and a brand new one is on sale for $699 CAD. Am I missing something here? Do used Epiphones retain their value or something...

I have a love for bluegrass music and I've been playing and learning bluegrass on my acoustic and it has me thinking, it would be cool to break into something different like either a mandolin or a banjo and I'm torn between which one. I could get both eventually but I want to break the ice into...

And if you guys need an idea on what to get me for Christmas, well, you can get me this!

As the title suggests, if a guitar has a 350mm radius (13.77") would this technically be 14"? Would you be able to just adjust saddles to be at 14" or does it have to be 13.77"? There isn't much difference so I don't think it would matter? School me.

Whats the general consensus on Harley Benton? Are they any good? Are they junk?

Has anyone else been getting an increase in scam phone calls? I'm in Canada, so maybe it's different where you are but it's almost on a daily, sometimes twice daily I will get a call from a scammer in the form of a lotto or Amazon scam. Recently I got a call asking me if I wanted to sell my...

As the title suggests, would you classify AC/DC songs easy or hard to play on guitar? For me, I'm going with they sound easy, but are rather difficult to get to sound right. Angus and Malcolm have some precise technique to say the least. Everyone seems to think that AC/DC should be songs that...

Well, I guess I'm now one of those guys that obsess over Les Pauls. After getting my first one in April, I haven't been able to put it down and now, I want to add another one to my collection. I feel like this will become a lifelong obsession and I'll end up collecting a few of them as I go along.

Do you limit the number of guitars in your possession at one time or do you say F it, I want all the guitars!

To those that say "I don't like SG's, they have bad neck dive", I say you are completely wrong. If you wear an appropriate strap like a leather one with an unfinished back (raw leather) or suede, there is virtually no neck dive. + =

Help me! $700 CAD taxes in! Tell me I shouldn't sell my SG and buy this! TE-200DX
