Plywood, plexiglass, sneakers and elbow grease is the recipe for success... and alotta ty-wraps don't hurt either.

: Anybody have any good home made board jobs? Let us know how you did it

First time here too, every click foward and back has an ad... incredible amount of SPAM !!! probally why there is no content.

when someone links to a SPAM board like this there should be a little symbol to let you know it is an ad site so you don't wast your time.

Off to complain to the webmaster that had this garbage link on their site.

Popup adds noted, added to the list of spammers I will never buy anything from.

: This looked like an interesting site- and I was excited to have found it. After 2 minutes of pop up hell I have decided its not worth the effort. Shame.

Pop-ups should be abolished as an unsolicite form of advertisement.

I would get a decent acoustic, you can pick up a decent used one for a fair price, there are too many to list here. Since you are taking lessons your teacher should be able to give you advice here, try as many as you can and find one that feels and sounds good to you, run it by your teacher, and then look around for the same model used.

: im going to take guitar lessons soon but i want to get a guitar. Does anyone have any suggestions on a good guitar or a good company. Which guitars should i avoid?

I am sure if you have the money Baker guitars will do it, or Jackson/esp coustom shops will do it.

: I have just purchased a 1980 explorer 2 with gold fittings...can you provide any information on this guitar..materials etc...thanks great site..thanks for your time

Have to agree this thing is a serious piece of shit, not like most fenders aren't any way. If you want ten times the guitar with the same basic tone/ a better bridge and neck. Buy a lower end RG series Ibanez and put an invader in it. This will cost about 300$ and kick far more ass.

i think its an awsome guitar.
i love tom and i love his guitar the pick ups are awsom and the old 70's look is also rad overall its a good guitar and it totaly screams tom delonge on it i think its worth the price and i cant wait to finaly get mine.

wtf are you saying thi a great guitar you probably don't know shit about guitars since you dissed it. oh buy the way i did not buy the tom delonge strat just because he made it the reason being is because it is simple. oh squier bullets suck ass.

that piece of junk is one of the best things I have ever played!! I think so because it has the awesome blink182 sound that most people love and it only has one voume control switch. I think it iss genious and i dont think it is a piece of junk. And,even though i prefer bass this strat is very bautifully made and i woud pay "$400" for it.

FUCK EVERYONE WHO HAS A PROBLEM WITH THIS GUITAR I LIKE IT TOM LIKES IT SO WHATS THE PROBLEM ALL YOU FUCKED UP PICES OF SHIT YOU CAN ALL GO FUCK YOURSELVES UP YOU GOD DAMN NOTHER FUCKING ASS HOLES

thanx -CARVER-

any one know where i can find a single HB pickguard, and one volume hole. Ive been on ebay, and other guitar shops. Im trying to make a custom strat, but i need the pickguard first.

HEy DUDE YOUR A DOUCHE BAG U FUCKING ASSHOLE TOM DELONGE IS THE MAN

: What's up with this piece of junk. Your paying $400 or more for a watered down strat just because of who indorses it basically. If you look on MTV he himself doesn't even play it most of the time. If you want one that bad simply buy a stratocaster (preferably a squier bullet because thier cheap), then take off the pickguard and all of those precious pickups and replace it with one (yes just one) seymor duncan humbucker, then buy a new pickguard to fit that. This will give you an even better guitar than the $400 dollar one because you'll still have tone toggles, for a little over half the price (mabye even less depending on where you buy the humbucker). Although I will say that Seymore Duncan Ivaders are pretty sweet.
