oh yeah!!

jcoote

just ordered this and this to keep it nice and cosy...feylyas gonna hurt me

Zapp Brannigan

I really like the finish, nice purchase.

feylya

Hurt you? HURT YOU? I'm gonna beat the ****e out of you with that case then steal the guitar!!! Ya ****ing **** *********!


Or not...

jcoote

yeah its the only one of the 3 on thomann that stood out...unreal features for 500 bills...i'm very happy

feylya

You don't want to get that LTD though. May God have mercy on you if you get that LTD!!!

jcoote

meh...scheter next for defo...i'm severly gassin for one of them...now fey don't be bold!!!

my setup is comin together really well now...as i said i'm very happy...

was gonna get a behringer chorus or multi pedal just for pig iron but thet're not available yet...i'll get one as soon as they are out tho

feylya

I'm not bold, I'm hungry. Oooh, lunch time.

Anyway, 1. I demand pics and 2. I demand a full review! Make it so.

Karl Hungus

Nice stuff man! I've been gassing over that myself too, so I'm going to try out the one in the local guitar shop and maybe put it on the to-do list. Seriously looks fantastic for the price. I'd hate to see what would happen if a load of instrument board heads all had one, barring Feylya though.

feylya

Ya know, I haven't banned anyone recently...

Yeah well you wouldn't want to ban someone for just buying a guitar, as I don't think the admins would be too happy about that, and then you'd be de-modded and Giblet would be given modship of this board so he can duly ignore it.

jcoote

that'd be classic if u banned me for this one fey...you'll get a full review and pics (i actually wanna take a pic of my full rig anyway so..)KH let us know if u do play it in the shop!!

Oh I fully plan to one of the days. Although it's nearly €800 around here, so I definetly will not be buying it from the locals.

€800 woah thats severe...have u seen the white finish in the flesh???looks dodgy in the pics...

feylya

Looks fairly dodgy alright.

jcoote

might look better with a different pickgaurd tbh

Nope, they only have the Natural one, which tbh, it the way it should be.

jcoote

yeah the natural one is savage for shizzle but the black one would be cool with a different pickguard also

feylya

There's a black lite ash???

jcoote

feylya

:eek: How did I miss that? Stick a pearloid pickguard on that, maybe the Dave Gilmour EMG set... Lovely stuff.

fish-head

You luckyyyy luckyyyy baaaaastard.

jcoote

i think the chrome harware looks tacky on it tbh thats why i didn't go for it...it kinda looks like the jap strat u said u liked a while ago fey

Yep, black white and natural are available. You can only get them with black single ply pick guards as far as I can see. For some reason the B and W ones are EDIT511 on Thomonn and as we all know the natural one is a very tempting 499

*** Jcoote - nice one! I'm severly tempted myself. Reviews at Harmony Central and Fender Forum are VERY positive. And it has a beautiful neck and finish. Also I see with Thomann you can send it back within 30 days for any or no reason at all - ok you'd be out the cost of shipping it back but that wouldn't be too bad.

jcoote

once its working 100% it won't be sent back...i've waited ages for this one

feylya

The only thing about it I wouldn't be overly fond of is the medium frets but hey, you can always refret it

Sure - but its reassuring to have the possibility just in case.
Enjoy it !!!! (and dont forget the high quality pix for the rest of us )

jcoote

hell no i wouldn't refret it...ah yeah its great to have but if i did send it back i don't think i'd get a much better guitar for 500 bills and i'd have an empty case

feylya

500 notes would get you an Ibanez SZ... Then you could buy a cat and let it sleep in the case

jcoote

true but i have wanted a strat for like 400 years now and i already have an ibanez so i don't think i want an sz just yet although they are savage...i feckin hate cats

feylya

Cats rule! And the SZ is a completely different beast to an RG.

jcoote

i know it is but i just had to get a strat me not havin a strat is bad!!! i don't like the stratless me...its amazin how all of a sudden i want an SZ...godammit

feylya

I'm a bad man to talk to J, you should know that by now

jcoote

yeah ur gettin as bad as the doc but thats a good thing ...its gonna sound great thru the roc pro...as the title says oh yeah!!

feylya

Oh Yeah!!!

jcoote

i can't stop sayin that..he's goin out with drew barrymore in the family guy movi...he's a legend OH YEAH!!..

feylya

I know. Oh Yeah!

Doctor J

Congrats on the guitar Jonny, I'm sure you'll be very happy together

Giblet

Pfft, I already have a nice strat and that hardcase :cool:

133 euro for the case though? Jesus I bought my Strat, Roland Cube 100 and that case for 250 punts!

sei046

i was given my 79 strat.....man it plays itself

jcoote

sei u have to post a video of that 79 playin itself...yeah gibbers the case was a few quid but it had to be gotten didn't it..cheers doc...that comic strip isgoin on my fone and makes its way round dublin

jcoote

haven't seen this one before but i got a txt today from SMSMAN sayin my order was shipped and it also gave me my comfirmation number...nice touch eh?

feylya

SMSMAN? From Thomann?

Doctor J

SMS management software. Thomann have started using them. Nice touch. It'll still take about two weeks Jonny, wait until SDS put it at the back of the big warehouse

feylya

Cool!

jcoote

oh right never heard of the sms managment thing thats deadly...ah yeah i'm not panicing...do yis reckon they'd ship it in the case or as 2 packages???

feylya

If they had a brain, they'd put it in the case... But this is Thomann we're talking about

jcoote

yeah i thought that i don't want another gmajor incident...i got the FCB1010 like 5 days before the gmajor..they other waya round would've been super but no thats too easy...hope i'm not left for a week sittin in there staring at a fender case

feylya

Well, they've normally thrown things into one box for me but I've never really ordered to big things together.

jcoote

yeah all the bits and bobs i've gotten have com togehter but the big stuff has all been seperate (head and cab,gmajor and FB,edr 470 and straps!!!)

Karl Hungus

Well, I got to try the Lite Ash Strat in town today, and damn, it's nice! It's something I'd like, but not really top of the list, you dig? I think I'll still be after the Les Paul first.
