cheap guitars

  1. ever buy a cheap guitar just cause its cool looking ,,,, i think i am going to order one tomorrow ,,, 279 dollars , so if its a hunk of junk its no biggie ,,, an Indy tear drop , always loved the Vox Tear Drop ( even though Keith Hated that thing that Brian played ) , sorry Keith ,, i love you deeply , but it was a cool guitar ,,,,, and i bet he even has one !!! :D

  2. $279! I thought you were talkin' Rondo-cheap! :D I

  3. In my book $279 rates 'inexpensive', but not really cheap.

    This Scrapocaster was cheap — £110 (about $165) including a lovely chunky neck in figured maple (a bit over-varnished but I can live with that) and a tappable Tonerider humbucker. This has actually become my go-to gigging guitar and can cover all the bases I need to hit. I might even treat it to a couple of better single coils which will elevate it into the 'inexpensive' bracket, but at least I can swap them out again if I sell the guitar.

    I'm thinking about one of these next — Tele + P90, ready to go. I've got some decent saddles and a Duncan bridge pickup in the bits drawer.

  4. I did buy a couple of cheap-os,just to see what the fuss was about.Here's one.

  5. Yep, a Yamaha SGV300.

  6. 165 ?? amazing huh ,,,, god my first guitar in like 1964 or 65 was a silvertone with amp case , if i remember that was 69 or 79 dollars ,,,,, so today at 165 ,, that is actualy unreal

  7. Here's another one

  8. And a third,from parts.Meh.

  9. A teardrop for $279? Who makes it?

  10. I got this ES-345 copy for $150 brand new. It had a stop tailpiece when I got it, I added the Bigsby. It plays great and sounds as good as any Gibson semi-hollow I've ever played.

    I'm pretty sure it was made it the Peerless factory --- fit and finish are superb.

  11. 150 dollars thats amazing , totaly amazing ,,,, yeah i have a 350 Ibanez art core and it walks all over my gibson es355

  12. oh Strummer , i found it on e-bay ,,,,,, its called an Indy ,, found in under tear drop guitars ,,,,,,, it looks darn good ,,, with P-90's 279 , free shipping

  13. A teardrop for $279? Who makes it?

  15. Anne, only $209 here, http://www.music44.com/X/pr...

  16. Just found their website. On sale for $209...but out of stock.

  17. Speaking of cheap guitars..... http://www.indianaguitarman...

  18. 135 for a LP copu (xaviere Xv 500)

    And it is a good guitar

  19. I love cheap guitars but they're addictive, almost dangerously so. Rondo music is like crack to me. If I'm not careful I can dump enough money into buying and modding cheap guitars instead of getting just one or two really good guitars.

  20. hey thanks Mac ,,,,,,, 209 ,,,,, yep , for sure tomorrow gonna order that

  21. If I was looking to buy a new guitar for $200, I'd probably be on the hunt for a used 50s CV Tele. But this teardrop is tempting. Wonder why they don't do it in white?

  22. WOW , you read my mind on that Strummer ,,,,,, if they have one tomorrow when i order it , i will have it painted white

  23. i bought Diggeys Harmony Rocket for 350 the other day , and that seemed like a good price , i dont know why someone didnt grab that sooner

  24. omg Built4speed ,,, i did a mod on 3 gretschs in April ,, and i actualy got sick when i did a tally of what i spent ,,, i thought , ok , time to see a shrink , you are nuts , wack , sick ,,,, but it was fun lol

  25. Oh it's definitely fun, but easily gets out of control. :D
