i think bent is the distributor of cort here. but never acoustic ones tho. bought it from a friend who bring it in from new zealand if im not mistaken.

trix, i guess it's still cheaper buying the guitar there and hand-carry. no local tax (10% on the declared value and the stupid custom officers ALWAYS include the shipment costs in calculating the tax) & no shipment charges. expect mine to include all that

anyway, i wanna chip in on the issue of Duckie too. how "powerful" a 13 year old can be, forced us (and the drummers) to open new threads just because of him. and he dared to challenge us (especially the Mods - welcome EBP) on the banning. i dunno what's his intention but i'm getting soooooo freaking annoyed! this "budak hingusan" needs some serious lessons in life!

duckie, with this kind of attitude, i dunno what u've been trying to prove coz u r not proving anything but just making urself looks silly & pathetic. and the worst part is, u r hurting the feelings of many & this is sinful (whatever ur religion is). when ppl start cursing u, u think God will like u? u think u'll live a blissful & peaceful life? think about it. respect others & i'm sure u'll get the same in return. u have a long way to go & it's never to late for u to realize & REPENT. i'm not preaching but just hope that u can be a human being & treat other human beings accordingly. i've been living in this world more than 2 & half of your age, been there done that! i'm sure ppl will appreciate if u ask for their forgiveness & prove that u've changed & grown-up.

i know u have my HP no, just call me anytime (like u used to) if u wanna say anything at all.

okay i know duckie did cause alot of issues here.

but lets move on with our guitar talk and feed our GAS shall we?

i just got my guitar back yesterday as it needed some minor fixing. practice is tonight and ive always been gigging with 1 electric guitar with no backup.
what makes a good back up guitar? any opinion/suggestion guys?
nothing wrong with my les paul. i think its one of the most durable guitars and its setup doesnt run fast (unlike guitars with thin necks, floyd rose, etc).

im sure u know by now thin necks dont necessarily make u play faster

if i was u, first thing is to send it to tham again and ask him check ur frets.
if its levelled properly, u can set the action extremely low...cos i have done it on my epi LP before.

and of cos a better backup would be something thats similar.
no use adjusting in the middle to a different scale length body watever etc.

oops. that came up wrong. what i meant was that a les paul is very stable, and its settings doesnt go off. unlike thin neck guitars with crazy weather it tends to bend easier, FR if your string breaks during a set theres no way you can continue finishing the song.

my les paul is setup really low and i got it refret recently.

so ure suggesting another les paul? hmmm...
WHY NOT?

well, anything with a 24.75" scale would be good.
like a SG perhaps?

i tot u've got a MIJ squier strat?

thats my guitar in kuching, so if i just have to fly back and have too many luggages (or taking air asia, and have to bring bck my acoustic with me), then i thats my run to guitar. its old, and the tunings run very fast.

never seen anything other than cort electric guitarzzzzzz =/

LP Double cut !!!!

I wish they didn't change the knob config tho =/

wanted to play through headphones and now i can't haha

wait.. hardware shops? as in those that sell paint, wood? LOL

yeah those sell them, at least there's where i bought them.
usually they sell screws and wires and stuff too so you can ask them

Erm,is the old guitar phreaks thread gonna be reopened?Or do we have to use this thread instead?

I bought mine from Low Yat when I lost mine too. Found it in ALLIT the last time. You can check Sri computer... you know..... that long lane? They might have it too.

haha, i actually went to about 5 computer shops in Ipoh to look for the converter. thought they will stock 'em, but none of them have it.

RGX A2... that video isn't that impressive.
Would still take a Les Paul tone over the RGX
