Probably for the best, I suppose.

Anyway, this is a gear thread, not an Aug/Pub thread.

I find all Your guitar collection really interesting bassintom, as I can see by the picture with the guitar stand, and I like the pink guitar, but maybe not so much the mustang, something is too match-ie in the colors.. its just my opinion, its Your guitar, but yea.. thats what ive got to "say"..

It's a NOHO thread which like it or not is an AUG thread, he has a one year ban for his behavior and lack of respect for this forum. And yet the people here are still kind enough to let people post about his products. I was making an observation, so relax.

Sorry, I wasn't trying to censor you or anything. I just didn't want to be responsible for this turning into a four page thread about the pros and cons of banning aug.

Shall we talk about your guitar again?

What pickups are in it? what switching options, etc.

It's got the lipstick pickups.Teh toggle just switches between neck/bridge/both.A simple volume and tone control.No special effects built in.

I'd always assumed it was sort of a take on the Mustang, so I was expecting phase switches and such.

My brother's guitar has lipstick humbuckers. It's a danelectro hodad. I don't much like the sound of it, but that's more likely because of the guitar than the pickups.

Nobody said you couldn't post about what you did, and nobody even dissed your guitar. I made an observation. My reply was for Bachhus it didn't even have anything to do with you, sorry for the misunderstanding.

COOL GUITAR, even though it does have a matching stock on maple.

wait, is triple D banned too?

No headstock decal? I thought they were "waiting" on them at one point... Did they just do away with that idea? I'm still not a fan of the stock, and think it would look (and probably play) better with a trem, but that's just me.

I don't even see what you mean, Hurb.

I like it Tom. It's got the shape of a prototype, but Aug does pro finishing. Do you like the lipsticks? I don't know what they sound like. Great collection.

strings sticking out all over is not how one strings a kluson styled tuner

And it's also one my pet peeves !
