    Check www.pickofthericks.com (hint hint) Good deals on Rickenbacker, Gretsch and Vox can be found. (or at least used to be... hopefully still are... I've not went to the sight in a bit)


    I hate when they make you call for price. How much does a 12 string Rick usually go for on this site?

    I just sent an email asking about the price of one of the mapleglo's up there. I really want a fireglo, but I just want to know the price.

    true that. But the newer one's are different than the older ones (edges) The older one's were more red and yellow and orange, as the new ones are more of a red to white sort of colour.

    Fireglo is a cool finish but not so rare. The amber fireglo is a bit more like Edge's. I think that was the 2007 finish of the year... I'd have to double check that...

    But the three main finishes are mapleglo, jetglo (black) and fireglo... then they have a "finish of the year". My burgundyglo was the 2002 FOTY.

    indeed, If I ever buy one, I'd try getting an older, used one

    Me too! I have to admit, I wasn't a big fan of mapleglo but after staring at Edge's for 10+ shows... I began to love it.

    Exactly, I loved it that much
  12. Squier Bullets and Affinitys are cheap chinese guitars made for beginners, made from cheap parts. I don't like their slim bodies and weak pickups. But if you like a slim body and upgrade the pickups, you may want to get yourself one.

    Indonesian Squier Standard Strats are another class. These are IMHO really nice guitars, very different than MIM Strats: Alnico Pickups, 22 frets, 2-point trem. Only drawback is the cheap Agathis wood - but there are a lot of worse alder bodys out there. Personally I'd prefer a stock Squier Standard Strat over a stock MIM. Not because it's really better, but because the specifications suit my taste more. The new Squier Deluxe Strats are said to have fantastic necks. I need to play one some day.
