Blues Deluxes are decent amps..got a 410 Deville that's one of the originals from the early 90's..Fender really fucked up on the volume pots though, they are so sensitive, they go from 0 to extreme in no time. Would be good if the Deluxes had a bit more headroom but I guess that's what they were designed for.

If anyones interested I have an AC15CC for sale on ebay starting a $575, also might be selling the 410 to downsize...trying to hunt down a Tweed Hot Rod Deluxe. Just missed out on purchasing a mid 70's Silverface Vibrolux for $1100 ..kicking myself, bargain of the century.

i have a mate who has a crafter nylon string acoustic, it sounds pretty rad. i'm looking at getting a 335 for jazz and funk shit, how does the crafter compare to the gibson ginger beer? how much did you drop on it?
GGinger Beer2 Oct 2012
I think i spent around about $1200 on it. It's a pretty sweet guitar man, the sound is not as nice as the gibson, but to my ear it sounds much better than an epiphone dot and sheraton. The neck on it is what sold me, it is a really slim neck for a 335 considering a gibson 335 feels like you are playing a tree trunk, but some people are into that, i'm not a huge fan of massively chunky necks.
If you have the cash lying around, the gibson 335 is probably the best option, they have a much higher re-sell value, they are a classic guitar and it will give you the tone you are after, but if you don't have the cash the crafter is one of the best copies i've played. Also, if you are after a nice semi hollow body for a good price, check out the artcore series by ibanez, i've played a few of those and they are really nice, especially the john scofield model.

nice amp Panda. which model is it? Fandango?
Ppandapanda30 Nov 2012
nah its a quiana, pretty similar to the fandango the main difference being it uses 6L6 tubes instead of the british style ones
Ppandapanda30 Nov 2012
sooo much warmth though and theres so many eq options on it too
DDeathMoth30 Nov 2012

Grimwood that danelectro looks amazing, so jealous. I got the jazzmaster for around $500 and i'm so happy with it. It has the tune-o-matic bridge on it so it doesn't have the issue of having the strings popping out of the saddles like most jazz's/jags and the unfinished neck on it is amazing. I had a bit of problems with the electronics when i first got it but once that was sorted i didn't have any grief and it's been amazing so far.

While i'm here, i may as well plug my band. We're called New Alias and we play around Sydney mostly doing rock originals. You can hit us up at http://www.facebook.com/NewAliasBand for gig info and it would be sick if you could like us on facebook as well. Here's a video of one of our songs.
