no...not me...

but if it were, it would explain my need to listen to music without singing, no?

actually I just watched this again; I dig it, how neat is it to watch and listen to that guy??!!!

it is really amazing, that music from the 1960's can still be so much fun to listen to; and even cooler, is how great the tunes from that decade have held up so incredibly well

The on-board reverb on most Fender combo's doesn't even come close to the wet, drippy, splash of a real tank. Not bad...but no comparison.

Actually, a Reverb tank will probably make that Peavey sound a lot more "surfy". You could try that first if you can demo a tank somewhere.]]> no_email@example.com (Ben) http://surfguitar101.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=77601#77601 http://surfguitar101.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=77600#77600

Hi Carol, When I first saw your pics I thought. Cool. An hawaiian shirt with a swallow-tail. Then quickly realized it was just hangin on a surfboard. Here' the deal.

I absolutely LOVE this album!! I'm generally not crazy about vocals in surf, but I really dig the vocals on this one. They're so well done, especially Pretty Eyes. The songwriting is excellent and the vibe is really cool. I'm going to be listening to this one a lot. Can't wait for their upcoming release later this year. Great work guys!]]> no_email@example.com (Ruhar) http://surfguitar101.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=77594#77594 http://surfguitar101.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=77593#77593
My question is two-fold; should I also attach a copper shield to the backside of the pickguard, or is the native aluminum sufficient? Also, I see some guys using copper sheets with spray adhesive on their pickguards, and other guys using copper tape. This is an area I have no experience in. I've rewired plenty of guitars, but never fooled around with shielding or pickguards before.

2nd part: I see that '58 JM's with the gold pickguards had a thin application of lacquer applied.

The pickguard I got from Allparts appears lacquer free. I get the sense that lacquer was there, originally, to protect against scratches. Is it a good idea to apply lacquer over it, or maybe shellac? The thing about shellac, which I have been mixing for decades, is that you can rub out scratches with a little alcohol on a soft cloth. Plus it's not toxic, and French polish is one of the wettest looking finishes available.

I know I'm not the first to go down this path. Any advice?

Thanks!

You can still get a nice used MIJ anywhere from around 7 beans on up, again, depending upon the circumstances.

I couldn't get past the compound radius of the neck. It was too wierd for me. What's funny is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO many people buy it with the intention of swapping out the neck first thing. I've seen web sites dedicated to how "crappy" the neck is. From the finish "It's sticky!" to the radius, to the shape... I have no trouble with the neck, and don't find fender nitro necks sticky (I guess these folks are raised on satin poly necks?), but swapping the neck seems to be what alot of folks do! Like I said, I don't get it...

Badash, like you, I can't imagine swapping out this neck.
The neck took a little getting used to, but I love it now. The nitro finish
was a little sticky when I first got it. (It was right off the assembly line).
It's a quartersawn neck made of premium wood, with staggered tuners
to eliminate string trees and friction. This is a thing of rare beauty in my
eyes. But it is a maple neck, so most of the guys here, being rosewood
fiends, probably wouldn't like it. But whether it's for you, or not, it is
quality all the way.
