  1. Well, as I understand it, they are woven from old growth Egyptian cotton, with vintage NOS thread and sewed on manual sewing machines with foot treadles. If you wait, I understand that they are going to launch an artisan aged version for $120. The logo is meticulously scratched off and the cloth is hand ripped for that truly worn out look. A better deal is to attend a PSP and you get a nice limited edition shirt for about $20 with a nicely designed logo. I've got a dozen or so. Honestly, I don't know why the are asking $40. Seems high, but an Adidas or Hilfiger shirt runs about $35. Sports team logo T-shirts tend to run $35 to $40. The days of $10 shirts seem to be long gone.

  2. Not to sound like a cheap a$$, but can anyone give me a honest, believable reason why the Heritage t-shirts cost $40? I men $20-25, maybe even $30, but $40 seems outrageous to me. ( I know someone will say, “ but you dont have to huy it”, yes, but that’s NOT the point!)

  3. I stopped playing reso on stage a while ago but I always liked this tone. It's from 14 years ago. The pickup is a Flatbucker. https://youtu.be/JJTOLHiw_Fs?feature=shared

  4. On the subject of fretboard radius: Both Gibson and Heritage guitars are usually specified as "12" radius". However, it is not at all unusual to find upon measuring the actual instrument in your hand to be anywhere from 9.5" to 14" radius!!! My 2001 H535, with all the factory nibs in place (meaning it absolutely left the factory this way) had a 10.5" fretboard radius. I've seen plenty of Gibson guitars, going all the way back to the 1950's, which had fretboard radius well smaller than the spec-sheet number of 12". Usually, radius doesn't matter that much, but if does matter as in the OP's situation trying to fit a 12-string capo, it would be important to actually measure it than to go by the spec sheet. On the 12-string capo, I really like the G7th Capo with the 12-string option. It works really well on acoustic 12-strings and electrics with the normal order of octave strings. (octave above the root string). Many electrics, and some acoustics (like the Taylor 652CE 12-string) have the octave courses reversed. One of the reasons I quickly decided the Taylor was not for me.

  5. You know what gets me? The biggest they go is 2xl. I need a 3xl. I know I'm not the only fat guy out there that would like to rock one of these...
