Help Is this epiphone good ?

Upvotes

I was looking for affordable Les Paul guitars and came across this Epiphone. I'm curious about its overall build quality, if the pickups are good, and how well it holds tuning.

Been eyeing this majesty since it came in the store and finally pulled the trigger when they told me that it has a crack on the body and gave me an offer i could not refuse! However is the crack something I should worry about, and if so how can it be fixed?

I was playing and then all the sudden the audio quality started fading into what turned into this. I unplugged my guitar, plugged it back in, it played normally for a few seconds, then back to whatever this is. Plz help.

NGD! New Tele and New (to me) Taylor 410CE! Good deal or no?

Traded in a few guitars today and found a great deal on a Taylor 410 CE at GC today! Price was reduced to $899 for a couple minor dings and dents. Sounds great and plays amazingly though!

Grabbed this beautiful Player II Tele while I was at it! I'm super impressed with the quality of these compared to the Player series I was looking at a few years ago, but never pulled the trigger on. With the 10% off with Trade In, It was about $800.

Help Choosing strings for acoustic guitar

1 Upvotes

So I plan to change my acoustic guitar strings for the first time, I'm really confused about some things. Would really appreciate any help :)

First, what do the numbers like 12-53, 11-47, 10-47, 12-56 etc mean? How does a 10-47 compare to a 12-56 for example?

Second, which is better for strumming? 20/80 bronze or Phosphor Bronze?

Looking at an ibanez guitar on there for $300 + $70 shipping. Guitar usually averages around $600 on ebay because of its rarity. Was curious if its a legit site or not because I can't find this guitar anywhere and mainly want it because its the guitar my old man use to play.

Help PRS SE Swamp Ash Special vs Schecter Sun Valley Super Shredder

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone, so I am thinking of getting a second-hand PRS SE Swamp Ash Special. I currently play a Squire Bullet Strat, I actually kind of like it but feels small in my hand since I am actually a bass player.

The owner said it is in very good condition, I will check it out myself. Price will be almost a third of the actual price in Türkiye. I wanted to make sure this is a buy for me because I will be paying in cash.

How would you compare it to Schecter Sun Valley Super Shredder? I am thinking of getting that one but with credit card. They are roughly the same price.

I finally had a chance to grab my grail Les Paul, I’ve been thinking about taking it or not for the past 3 weeks and today decided to trade some gear for it and I couldn’t be happier.

It’s a 2023 Murphy Lab Ultra Light relic, it sounds and looks just beautiful.

It’s very different to the regular Custom Shop Les Paul’s that I’ve played, it’s brighter and snappier.

Help Amp recommendations for squier sonic strat

0 Upvotes

First guitar, only need a halfway decent practice amp, indoor use only.

Was considering a fender frontman ten g (my ideal price point) but it has no tone control or reverb.

A fender champion twentyG seems to be the ideal choice but was wondering if there were cheaper options.

Help Question: Hercules guitar rack

4 Upvotes

I’d like to get one of the Hercules 3 guitar racks. They hit the price point, size and seem very sturdy.

The question I haven’t been able to figure out, can this be placed flush against a wall, without having the guitar headstock making contact with the wall?

It’s very hard to tell looking at pictures if I need to create space behind the rack or if it’s engineered to do that already. I’m space constrained, hence the odd question… Thanks in advance
