Totally worth bumpin' fo':

There's no sugar coating anything in this ad. You're looking at a generic Tele-style guitar, and frankly it's utterly, totally, amazingly mediocre. It's okay. It's like a bag of McDonald's french fries that has been sitting on the counter for an hour: it's not great, but hey, at least there's french fries!

If this guitar was a chef, it would be great at making pre-frozen hamburgers and boxes of mac-n-cheese.

If this guitar was a marathon runner, it would finish the race, then immediately need mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

To paraphrase both Shakespeare and Joseph Heller: some guitars are born mediocre, some achieve mediocrity, and others have mediocrity thrust upon them. In the case of this guitar, it's all three.

It's not great, folks. I'm not here to tell you how fantastic a $75 guitar plays, or how it slays some custom shop Fender, or some boutique of the month. Blah, blah, blah.

This is a basic electric guitar, and it works. It came "relic'd" and as you can see from the pics it's not half bad. It looks kinda like regular wear.

I've seen worse relic jobs on guitars costing 30x this one. The pots are surprisingly smooth, as is the pickup selector -- they don't feel obviously cheap. I have not opened up the control cavity, so I don't know what it looks like in there.

What does it sound like? Well, like a Tele. The pickups are low-wind and they do tele-ish things. They do tele-ish things in a remarkably mediocre fashion.

If this guitar doesn't sell, I will put an aftermarket neck on it, and probably replace the bridge too, and it would probably turn out to be a nice kick-around Tele for gigs and rehearsals.

Do not buy this guitar if you want perfection.
Do not buy this guitar if you want to be inspired to lofty heights by a perfectly built, custom-shop instrument.
Do not even look at this guitar if you have no tolerance for putting a little work into a guitar to make it good.

Who should buy this guitar? Someone who has $75 bucks, and wants to mess around with a decent enough Tele platform.

A note about shipping: look, shipping is getting *expensive*. I kinda hate it, but there's nothing I can do about it. It's gonna cost a little bit, but I'll cap the shipping at $30. If it's less, I refund the difference. If it's more, I'll eat it.

That description alone may be worth the $75.

Perfect condition, by far my favorite pedal. Sounds amazing on all makes and models of guitars and incredible on my fender amp Marshall amp, but I was blown away to hear it on the orange crush amp. Never an issue. Has been brand new in the box for a while then opened and used for about 6 months by Only myself. I always had the boss GT6 Floorboard with the delay function but my floorboard was stolen six months ago And when I tried out this digital delay pedal it blew the floorboard out of the water with the different specific modifications. Only reason I’m selling is because hi I’m also selling four of my guitars and purchasing a Paul Reed Smith which is all guitar players no are very expensive but worth it. Any questions please feel free to ask. I am sorry for the cover picture or photo. But you can zoom in and for some reason it is the only photo that it is allowing me to upload For some reason but I will do a reasonable money back guarantee and all my information. Thank you

The Chase Bliss ones that go for $1000 on Reverb.

...I quickly learned that tremolo is not for me, and the possibilities that this pedal has are far beyond my ability. Only played for about a half hour.

I missed that one.

"If you’re here, you know what you’re looking at, a rare piece of CBA history. "

Can't remember if we've already done this one, but it's a good time of year to revisit if we have:

This singular guitar came into my possession quite by accident and has spooked me enough that I want to get rid of it. Although I'm quite confident this ghoulish guitar would be fine for someone more in tune with the tenebrous forces of the malevolent netherworld, I myself have little knowledge of such things, and prefer not to meddle with the morbid mysteries of the macabre.

Here's what I know, and what I've been told.

A kid that lived on my street when I was growing up was rumored to be into devil worship, seances, Aleister Crowley, Black Magic, and other dark endeavors of the Spirit World. (Oddly, despite the youth's somewhat dweebish demeanor and philistine penchant for putrid proclivities, he was quite popular: All the boys in the neighborhood wanted to be him, while the girls foolishly thought that they could change him.)

I later learned that this neophyte necromancer was born in June of '66, and died tragically on Halloween, October 31, 1979, when he was just thirteen years old. (His death has never been solved, but the calamitous kid was found lying on his bed with THIS GUITAR draped across him, apparently electrocuted, even though this is an acoustic guitar! Additionally, when the damnable corpse of this soulless stooge of Satan was eventually discovered, a 45 record of Blue Oyster Cult's "Don't Fear the Reaper" was playing repeatedly on the Mephistophelean moppet's GE Wildcat record changer!! A Swanson TV Dinner--Turkey with all the "fixin's"--remained uneaten, while the air was thick with the acrid smell of sulfur emanating from some perverse potion the young hellion had been mixing with his Li'l Gilbert Chemistry Set. The licentious lad's Farrah Fawcett Swimsuit Poster mockingly stared down upon the dead boy, as if to say, "See you in hell, Buster!" Somewhere, a hellhound hailing from the bowels of Hades howled horrendously into the unhallowed hellish night.)

Years later, I ran into the defunct boy's mother (herself a propagating practitioner of the Pagan arts), and when I informed her that I was a professional guitarist, she offered me her devilish, daisy-pushin' son's git-fiddle.

Since I've owned this guitar I've heard the strings discordantly ring out, despite no one being near the guitar. Further, on three occasions I put the guitar in my bedroom closet, only to find the guitar on my bed when I returned home (and I live alone!). The final straw occurred when I saw the guitar levitate out of the trash can I had somberly placed it in.

So for those of you brave enough to tamper with the Spirit World, I offer you this unique guitar (which appears to date from the late 1950's through the 1960's. Satan has apparently stricken the brand name decal from the headstock of the guitar, but my research leads me to believe it's a Kay Western Special. My expertise lies more with vintage and custom shop Gibson and Fender instruments, particularly the 1959 Les Paul, and Pre-CBS Telecaster and Stratocaster models).

And to the buyer of this ghastly guitar, congratulations, though please use EXTREME CAUTION when conjuring the phantasmic spirits that seem to be channeled through this eerie instrument!

The rare occasion where I find "LOL" to be appropriate. Gold.

August's AAA Anti-literary Assoc. Alliterative Abuse Accolades Awardee

Another effort from the minds of Nathan Daniel and Vincent Bell, comes our beloved Belzouki. Lightweight example, well constructed from the finest aged grain free construction grade masonite. Neck is refinished. It is not what you want, this is what you need.

https://reverb.com/item/36267020-danele ... 5-sunburst

wtf is a belzouki btw?

Well, they spelled "Bellzouki" wrong in the listing title.

It's a play on Vincent Bell's last name & "bouzouki".

Also, I have no clue why this seller thinks this stuff is worth this much:



https://reverb.com/item/37154911-earth- ... ood-ny-usa

"Earth Sound Research M 410 LoudSpeakers - Made In Brentwood New York USA.

This listing is for a Earth Sound Research M 410 LoudSpeakers - Made In Brentwood New York USA.Shown in the pictures.

Buyer will receive the items shown in the pictures, the two loudspeakers. The pictures shows the actual condition of items. In a good working condition.

With little-to-no information scattered throughout the country, Earth Sound Research was an incredibly mysterious amplifier company whose history has been crafted by large amounts of hearsay and conspiracies. This lack of information and the element of mystery have created somewhat of a cult following behind the company since its closure in the early 1980s.

Earth Sound Research was a 1970s amplification company owned by Mark Neuman and Dave Garrett and based in Farmingdale, New York.. Yet, this is really all of the information a person can find on this amplifier company. Since it’s closure, and since there is little to no information about this company. Over the years, their products has become highly sort after with a cult like following In recent years. Up this point, fans and customers don’t know how the company was founded and how it ended even though during their operations, they’ve created great quality products."



I mean, I'm glad they're such a big fan of Brentwood?

That earth is probably my favourite of the year.

"If you don't know what the back of a Daddy's Junky Music used gear section looks like, you probably never saw these bad boys hiding under a Plush or a Kustom and have no idea that they're mostly just Fender and Peavey circuits."

Fun fact: I once bought a Kustom 2x15 cab from a Daddy's.

(To go along with my black tuck-and-roll Plush head that I couldn't find a matching cab for. )

wonder how an Oliver would look in tuck and roll purple
