thanks for posting the pic,very interesting.Years ago i wrote to Bill Baker,who owned Ace's af 40 v seen in the official viodeo for " into the night",and he told me thar the guitar wasn't great. I wrongly assumed that Ace had a luthier version,like happened with many rockstars,but that wasn't the ...

too kind!

In my experience, if the sound goes from fx to guitar amps , it is moe "natural" for a guitarist who is accustomed to that spectrum of frequencies(generally speaking, guitar amps don't exceed the 5k herz range),but if you go the other way, i.e. putting the fx post amp and then in good ...

LOL, the pickups choice ws based on the fact that the orginal ones weren't doing the guitars justice:In each and every case, the sound made a quantum leap. About the Invader, someone gave it to me as present, and so i'v bought the guitar and put it there.Same with the super 80's.The roswell were ...

A few months ago i did find a greg bennett royale RL 3 in mint condition, so i've bought it.
The royale has a special construction:

one for all has some great tunes and some ok tunes that suffered from bad production choices.Maybe a good producer could have saved it and also spared Peter all the negative comments.Plus, some songs were more reflectiive of his age compared to the average Kiss fan.Once again, it was heartfelt but ...

bought the wav. files on bandcamp(regular price), what transpires from the song it that Peter had much fun recodring it,and same goes for the players who guested on it.That is wha tmakes it more enjoyable, i will wait til i've heard it many tiems before sayng anything about it, but the first ...

That looks very cool Ankh. I like the sparkle in the finish, ha ha.

With the fingerboard, what you're refering to is the radius, it's very flat, at least to you and compared to vintage Fenders.

i have sevral guitars with different radiuses,,some are more or less flat,but this one is one of a ...

No worries about opening a new thread or leaving it here, AF-40 are in good company together…

too kind!! What are your thoughts about the AF40 you've bought?
My copy has a very flat fingerboard and radius,how does the fingerboard of your'ìs feel?
Very curious....

Nice guitar! It looks great and so close to the original, which isn’t always the case with Chinese replicas.
A shadow PU seems to be a great choice on a single PU guitar.
$ 150, that was a deal!

i was pleasantly surprised about the price,and the silver bolt has a sparkly finish .
I would have ...

soory if i'm late in posting here,congrats on this purchase! Kudos to you!

I wanted one for years but the prices asked were always too high.

sorry to rain on your parade, but it seems that the Nightmare thing was a prank a fan played on him.
The fan created a fake gmail account and sent him a mail and-stating that he was a rep of New Line Cinema- asked Vincent for a VVI style song for the future Nightmare reboot.
The whole thing was a ...
