    Re: Tenorcaster

    I took it up to Antebellum Instruments for a setup yesterday and the playability and tone is much improved. Jake added shielding tape as there wasn't any which helped a lot with noise. The action and...

    Re: Rescued and reborn

    I got her back yesterday and what a transformation! New frets, new tuners, lipstick pickup, new nut, and a few other details, and she plays like a dream. The acoustic tone is ok, but nothing compared...

    Re: Rescued and reborn

    It's perfect for what I wanted it for which is to be able to go to jams whether electric or not and not worry too much about a ding here and there. It already has plenty.

    Re: Tenorcaster

    Ok so I've had a chance to play it through a Vox AC4TV and a Red Witch Medusa chorus/tremolo pedal and I'm pretty happy with the sound. To me it has "that tele sound", but I'm not really and...

    Re: Tenorcaster

    I received the new one today and it's WAY better. However it is made in china and I think the workmanship could be much better for the price. I'll update when I get better acquainted with it.

    They sent a prepaid shipping label and sent a replacement the same day. Hopefully the new one is good. I can't complain about their customer service so far, but they need to get a better grip on...

    Well it finally came and I'm not too impressed. They forgot a strap button, intonation on the A string is way off, and there is a crack in the fingerboard above the nut. The crack really isn't a...

    I paid for mine last Tuesday and haven't received a tracking number yet. Am I wrong to think if you get an invoice, they should be ready to ship your order upon payment?

    I hope it's all four...

    Re: Tenorcaster

    I put my deposit down on the butterscotch one. A Facebook post caught me at a weak moment. This will be my first electric guitar in years. Now I need an amp...and cables...and some effects...oops.

    Re: Virtues of lower tuning

    My luthier fixed the slight bow in my tenor (also pearloid board) by re-fretting with jumbo frets and then leveling and dressing them. No, it isn't the 100% correct way of doing it, but may be the...

    Re: Session King tenor guitar

    I've watched the YouTube video of Tom Kimber playing one dozens of times. If I can ever afford a custom build, the Session King is my dream tenor guitar. The sound is beyond words.

    Well I got them and I'm thrilled with both. Especially the tenor. Tons of sustain and bass and plain fun to play. I'll try to post a video soon.
