    This is what I'm rockin' lately. 1962 Silvertone Jupiter. Back then they were budget guitars, made pretty cheaply, but man does it have character. Like Edge said about his Explorer, the guitar just has songs in it. It's not the best playing guitar, it's certainly interesting sounding, but she's got it where it counts and I couldn't be happier.

    I slapped a souvenir from my trip to Iceland last year on it
    Niiiiiiiiiiice Love everything about it, even the souvenir and the strap (and I'm usually not a fan of coloured straps!).

    Does it have a sparky finish like other Silvertones I've seen or is it plain black? The photo isn't clear enough to judge

    Thanks, Sergio!

    It's sparkly, but really subtle. If you're 6 feet away from it and not in a well lit room you probably couldn't tell. Not sure if that's the finish or just the aging.
  3. Great! Sparkly but not exaggerated. Love it What about the pups? Brand-custom humbuckers I assume?
  4. I like that dark green finish. Nice guitar!
  5. Thanks!

    And nope, they're the totally stock DeArmond Diamond Grill Pickups, and they sound fantastic. I'll have to do a demo.
  6. I finished my pedal!
  7. Nice!

    How does it sound?
  8. That's amazing. Let us see (and hear) it
  9. Thanks! I'll try to get something up tonight or tomorrow

    It'll be chords-only, to save myself embarrassment

  10. Here's a picture of the pedal I recently finished. It's very plain right now, but I was just glad it works. I'm thinking about adding a decal onto it, possibly Boba Fett's Mandalorian symbol (since it's a FET preamp )
