    Any other RG-120 owners around?

    Just wondering if any RG-120 owners might have experience re a couple of things - I was lucky enough to buy one recently. It looks like I might have to fit some new tuners - I was wondering if any other owners had previously done so and what they might recommend. Also, much as I like both the...

    Electric 12 String Recommendations, Pls?

    Much as I'm tempted by a Rick 660/12 the price (plus the idiosyncrasies - tuner configuration, dual truss rod adjustment) make me look for solid body alternatives but they're few and far between, certainly in the UK. And as we know even Rick 'style' semis rarely appear on popular auction...

    'Should I buy a Chinese TB48 T-bird bass?', he asks...

    Couldn't think of a better way to put it - I'm wondering if anyone owns one and has direct experience of the model. I can't seem to quell my yearnings for a T-bird bass, but a Gibson is beyond my budget and the preferable of the two Epis - the slimmer necked, fixed neck Pro is undesirably...

    For Sale: New Faber aged ABRM Bridge 4mm posts - ?30

    Following my post re the mistaken purchase of this metric aged nickel Faber 'No Wire' ABRM bridge with brass saddles, for 4mm posts... Decided to sell it on for ?30 Paypal gift in the UK (would cost around ?43 shipped new from Germany) - slightly more if overseas shipping. One of these - Tokai...

    Bridge post diameter on EG59-70?

    Hi all, Finally decided to replace the bridge on my 1989 EG59- 70: so - I've always understood that non-Gibson, 'import' LP posts were metric so I ordered a Faber ABRM metric bridge, post diameter being listed as 4.2mm. But it's notably loose on the posts (compared to the snug fit of the...

    WTB in UK: older MIJ or Gibson SG, poss 61 reissue type?

    Looking for an older Japanese or Gibson SG - (though not a standard with the big, fixed scratchplate ;)) with a non-chunky neck (a 61 reissue type?) for no or minimal neck dive. Something walnut, brown, natural, white, even refinished (but nothing garish or black) heavily preferred over a...

    Korean GT with Jap specs???

    Hi all - I have a permanent hankering for a decent Jap GT, but they all seem to be around the ?1000... this is half that... Is there any truth in the pitch this chap is giving re the semi-Japanese spec quality of this 'Korean' gt...

    Anyone else own a Vester Les Paul Tradition model?

    The reason I ask is because after owning one for a few years I can't decide what it is about the 'proportions' of it that don't seem quite right in terms of the 'classic' Les Paul shape, seen from the front. It's a subtle difference, but after all this time there remains 'something' that just...

    My white Tokai SG

    You're not seeing any pics. I don't own a digital camera, but anyway... A while ago I picked up a 2 pickup, white, Tokai SG - the previous owner said that he'd owned it for 3-4 years and had no idea of the model. It only has 'Made In Korea' printed on the back of the headstock and no serial...

    Wanted: Lemonburst LP; Burny, etc. Within UK only.

    Well I've only just joined the forum, but it can't do any harm to ask - I'm looking for a MIJ Lemonburst LP, but only from within the UK. This seriously [perhaps terminally - lol] limits my options, but I won't risk overseas shipping. With a terrible coincidence, as I'm writing this 'cino.and'...
