NEVER FEAR HONDA PRO MOTORCYCLE POLISH TO THE RESCUE.

15 minutes of some hard scrubbing and this thing is M I N T


if guitar center took the time they could have sold this locally for alot more i think.

i just sent an email back to the manager of the store in Minneapolis Minnesota. I know I have had my share of dealing with TOTAL FUCKING BONEHEADS at 4 or 5 guitar centers in the past but these people really took the time to take care of me. (and i got a great deal on a hard to find color)


please people, when you have good service at any retail establishment and you feel like people went above and beyond to help you out, let them know they are doing a good job.


im sure this guys boss is a complete dick, just like everyone elses boss on earth and it would do him good to get a quick 5 minute email about the service i got.

Awesome my man!
As you know, I'm sure, I love the excitement of getting a new guitar. The video captured that perfectly.......Well done!

If you want, I got a big ass bag of white knobs in the mail and I will send you some when the Bronco is done -

I was really worried you were gonna jump on the box at the end because that's probably what I would have done in my excitement. Glad you didn't though !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keys in case pocket ? Mute too ??

Nice Jag Rob, looks great...

That was by far the most entertaining video of opening a box that I've ever seen.

I had some roundwound .011s on my Jaguar and had the same problem with the high E. So i slapped some flatwound .012s onnit and theres no more buzz.
how do 12s work out on a shortscale, im guessing they are not as tight as on a tele?

the main thing i don't care for on 12's is they usually come with wound g's which is not my style unless i'm on an acoustic.

No offense to your ex-collection of 20 squiers but that photo is not only proof that you have stepped up your game tremendously, but that sometimes less can be more.

i've only ever used 11s on shortscales, and 10s on teles/strats/jazzies, but my guess was that they'd be tighter.
