I agree with the others - hold off until you find the real deal. I never played the SE but read enough reviews that convinced me I wouldn't be happy with it. I kept looking around and found a '22 on...
Why not live the dream? Even if it's online.. :encouragement:
The K120 and Force 12 weigh 12.8 and 14 lbs. The 1969 Fender catalog does not list the weight of a stock tube Twin. But Cream City has a '69 with EVMs listed as weighing 88 pounds. EVM 12Ls weigh...

I bought the steel notched straight edge with the short scale side and the long scale side. They say it will work with a 25 inch scale, and the Eastman is a 25 inch scale. But neither side fits over...
Yes, I used to compose solos, write them down, practice and play around with them, it's a very effective way to build your improvisation skills. Especially over vanilla ice cream!
Hi Ewall, I see what you're saying about the fretboard view but I think it's a trick of light. There is (what I always called) a character mark at the 4th fret, but it's never bothered me. I...
