haggardguy Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 yeah i only have $220 i was looking at this one tho http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...7334949766&rd=1 fixer upper sell it for more and buy an NJ Classic Mockingbird ← Don't get that,it has an oddball single locking floyd rose bridge which is missing a saddle and bar from the looks of it and the afermoentioned crack on the back. http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...7334183293&rd=1 Hear shoot for this one That one has $75 for shipping which effectively lowers the maximum price he can afford to bid on the item. (and thats in USD which is probably around 90-95 CAD) http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...7334438187&rd=1 id go for this one BUT HE DOESNT SHIP TO CANADA EDIT:my friend is asking him if he can ship to good ol' Canada...can anyone see if there are and bad flaws in it that i missed? Thats got an agathis body which as far as i remember reading is sorta like using plywood for a body, and those pickups really suck you'll want to swap them out. Hear Man Have A look at this One http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...7333802952&rd=1 Maybe Someone Could Have It shiped Out to them And They could Ship it to you that a)only ships to the US, and is at $155USD plus shipping to someone in the states plus shipping to him puts him over the price range again And the LTD is agathis too but out of the posted that would be my choice.

sepultura999 Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 (edited) Jay Tursers are made of basswood as far as I know. You might as well go for a Sanatoga. Seriously, save your money. Wes said he's had horrible experience with BC Rich Platinums, and to be honest, they all look like garbage. I haven't found agathis to be a nice wood. I tried a bc rich platinum virgo, with one humbucker and one hotrails in the neck. It's garbage and I don't find hotrails to sound like humbuckers, they are thicker sounding than single coils but not like humbuckers imo. I also think they should just put the stupid humbucker in the neck, there's enough room. The squire I tried a few weeks ago is a lot better than the bc rich virgo imo. I haven't tried an NJ series, but out of them all, save up for an NJ series, whether it has a speedloader or not. Wes has had good results with them. From Canada http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...ssPageName=WDVW http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...ssPageName=WDVW Yes that second link from Canada is for a platinum series lol. It's your call, I'm just helping you out. From USA http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...7334496856&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...7334818963&rd=1 Keep looking, you'll find one. Don't get all overwhelmed because of everything you see. Also, it will be helpful to actually have your own ebay account. Just ask your dad and sign up with his card (make sure he gives you permission! lol). -Jamie Edited July 7, 2005 by sepultura999 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughes Posted July 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 haha this is what i was thinking. get a cheap guitar i can afford now, right? then when my employers phone (shoulda phoned weeks ago) i will have a full time summer job, then buy a NJ Classic guitar. i could also use the "not" so good one on plane trips to my old town or whereever i go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sepultura999 Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 (edited) In that case, go with a travel guitar and save up for an NJ series. I know you're hungry for guitars and all, believe me. I almost bid on a 5150 amp head, 2 marshal cabinets, 4-5 pieces of rack gear, and a jackson soloist that sold all together for 1600. The guy didn't want to ship, only local pickup, and if I bid and won, I would've had to drive 8 hours to some town in Quebec. Good deal? I'd say so. However, I have other things I'm planning to invest in, like a new computer for recording, and recording gear, and stuff like that. The next guitar I get will be the one I plan on building in the next few weeks. If you're really wanting a guitar, why not use warmoth?

Hughes Posted July 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 warmoth will cost way more then what i can afford but yeah, i always try and convince my self not to buy a crappy guitar and just wait till im able to buy a good good one, the best deal tho ive seen is that ravenwest guitar, but the guy doesnt seem to be responding...so i think im jsut gonna wait till i can buy an NJ Classic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sepultura999 Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 Make sure you're trying guitars as well. The BC Rich looks awesome, but looks can be deceiving, hence why I think the platinum series suck lol. Warmoth is costly, but for the price of an NJ series you could get a warmoth made neck and body, and maybe enough money to get gear with it (pickups, etc). All you have to do is put it together and paint it. Remember all the guitar bodies on warmoth are made so that Fender necks fit, with few exceptions (make sure you read carefully). You can always buy a warmoth body, and then buy an economy neck for 45 bucks American from Brian at universaljems.com. At least I think those economy necks fit. -Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughes Posted July 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 (edited) i would really consider doing that. i think when i get my paycheck i might get a tabletop bandsaw, and router so i can make my own at home. (my teacher at school i think is sick of me screwing up on necks) ahhhhhhhh ravenwest said he will ship but it would cost $60 man o man Edited July 7, 2005 by Hughes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
