They used to be distributed by TGS but they gone of the radar recently. Any ideas? I like their badwater series though. Very affortable price with good wood, although the pickups are total crap.
Thanks!

I had one and I actually like the guitar and the pickups, and mine had a wonderful neck, but yeah, tuners are crap.

no idea where to find one though.

Oh well, but the wood is decent. Their les paul copies sound powerful after some hot rodding acts.

guitar projects are a waste of money nowadays.
even before also waste of money.
get a cheap guitar, stick lots of good parts in it...its not gonna make it sound that much better...and deep down inside u still know its not good.
better just to get warmoth or mighty mite parts and build from scratch...

Hmmm...I got your point. But still, imo, it is better to hone my skills before messing around with expensive stuff.

the irony is that, for something wanting to start honing their skills...most are too afraid to even start on a cheap guitar... tongue.gif

Agree, imho, cheap guitars are either for beginners who are tight in budget or for those who wants to have their first taste on guitar hot-rodding experience.
Practice makes perfect, just wanna make sure that I have enough skills and experience before messing with my babes xD

lol!
Only seen 2 GIMs till now. One made by Jeff Yong and another transparent blue 7 string electric guitar.
Neck shims on bolt on? So you're dealing with tunomatic or tom bridge?

its called shit ass construction.
so when the bridge cannot be adjusted anymore and string action still not right, u stick shims under the neck to change the body / neck angle to make it right.
MIA fenders have something easier to do built-in called a micro-tilt...but as it says...micro...not for huge ass tilts.
