I recently got a great deal on a Rickenbacker 360 from Musician's Friend. I took the guitar to have it setup by my guitar tech and after he inspected the guitar he recommended I send it back because the neck was twisted. I was really bummed, but there's no sense in keeping a new guitar that...
Recently, I bought a Rickenbacker 360 at a very good price from Musician's Friend. Prior to this purchase, I had spent very little time with Rickenbackers and didn't really know what to expect. The guitar was a little difficult to play and I assumed it just needed a proper setup.

I use my HD500 for practicing at night and a once a week jam session plugged directly into a Jam Hub. I'm very happy with the sounds I'm getting out of my HD, but I'm looking for some suggestions on the best way to manage it.

My neighbor's father recently passed away and left him his 1922 Martin OO-18. As far as I can tell the guitar is all original with the exception of the tuners. (Grover open back) There is plenty of wear on the guitar, but there are no cracks, a few dings, but no cracks.
I was amazed at how...

I picked up two guitars today that I had Plek'd by Phil Jacoby at Philtone in Baltimore, MD.
In a nut shell, the results far exceeded my expectations.
The guitars (Epiphone Elitist Les Paul Standard and American Series Stratocaster) never played or sounded better. I just can't get over how...
