Yes, it has a floyd but no locking nut, just the locking sperzel tuners. I'm not much of a whammy bar user, so no big deal. I'll probably just lock it in place. All my other Carvins have the serial number on the jack plate, so I'll see if this is the same.

Not sure of the year, but I'll know when I get it and can check the serial number. Wish mine had the Kahler like yours.

Yeah, GC is a double edge sword. Sometimes you can score a killer deal and other times you get something that was listed as great condition all jacked up. Sucks when that happens but with their return policy, not that big of a deal. They still pretty much beat everyone's prices on used gear and...

Saw this on GC's used site and had to get it. Always wanted one and they don't pop up as often as they used to for a decent price. What do you think?

100% agree with you. Sammy talked all kinds of shit about Eddie, bashed him in his book, and also David Lee Roth. I never once heard any quote or story from Eddie saying anything bad about Sammy. I would be really surprised if Alex, Dave or even Wolfgang would have anything to do with this tour...

I guess I'm in the minority here but they are my favorite. I thought they were better than the Gotoh ones I had on my ESP eclipse.

One of those killer albums with every song being awesome from start to finish. KK and Tipton are both sadly underrated.

Not trying to add fuel to the fire but my last purchase from Ishibashi was I got a guitar with a crack where the neck was glued to the body and Ishibashi did not show or say anything about it in their listing. Even though they admitted they left it out, they only wanted to discount the guitar...

Did you calculate shipping buying from the dealers website? I've purchased guitars from Ishibashi and the shipping rates were way higher when ordering directly from their website vs their Reverb listing.

Riot fire down under is one of my all time favorites. Every song on that album was killer.

Yeah, I guess I should have listed the post as GC employee rant. Never had a refusal to take additional pics of a used item until speaking with this guy so I can't condemn all GC's. I actually went ahead and ordered the guitar so I'll see when it gets here. If I have to return it and eat the...

So, I was looking at the used guitars on GC's website and saw one I was interested in. It was listed as in good condition which under GC's definition means that it has scratches, dents, dings, etc on it. Of course the pics online do not show any of that so I called the store to ask about the...

Dave lives for the feud. Dude is never happy and talks shit about everyone who was in Megadeth. Metallica was smart enough to get rid of him early and he still constantly wines about it. They haven't been the same since Marty left the band.

Have you tried the emg 57/66 pups? I have a ESP eclipse and replaced the 81/60 set with them and like it much better. If you want passive pups, maybe try what ESP uses with the jb/jazz set.

I've got a FGN Neo classic NCLS10 and love it. Very good quality guitar and plays, sounds killer. My next one will be a FGN Expert flame model.

Never played a custom shop ESP but I have had the LTD eclipse and own two of the E-II eclipses. The E-II models are definately a step above the LTD I had. Not sure what model you are going after but I would look for a used E-II, as most can be found around $1500 in very good condition. The LTD...

Not really hearing anything special either. Sounds like a pretty generic tone you could get easily with almost any amp and effects.

I bought a aliexpress chibson les paul custom. It wasn't bad but I wouldn't do it again. By the time you replaced the pickups, pots, switches, nut, tuners, etc I could have bought something better without needing all the upgrades. I did the setup and fret work myself also. It was a good guitar...

Yeah, you guys are right. It was a b-stock item so I'll live with it since it functions like it should and didn't cost too much. Appreciate the input.

It's actually the coating of the pickup. it looks like it didn't take when it was sprayed or baked on.
