Guest HRB853370 Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 Oh yeah, 4 days earlier than expected! I had to go to my gig, so I couldn't open the case, but my girlfriend openened it up a few hours later and snapped this pic, then she texted it to me at me gig! Well I just got home and tuned it up and it intonates perfectly which I like. I strummed it acoustically and it sounded resonant but I can't plug in right now. I would fire it up, but my girl is sleeping right now, and I live in a small house. It looks very nice, and the finish looks very well done, but it does feels heavier than my other H150, so I'm going to weigh both of my H150's on an accurate scale to see exactly what they weigh. I don't lake the chrome pickup covers, or the chrome Tonepros hardware, I prefer nickel, but I want to keep it perfectly stock until I do the comparison tests with my historic '60 reissue Les Paul. This Saturday, I'm meeting with my friend who owns more great vintage amplfiers than anybody I know. I will definately know more about this guitar after that. There's some big flame on this one! You trusted your girlfriend with your new 150? Man!

schundog Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 VERY nice, man. I wish we could be Skyped-in while you are at your friend's house with all the amps, haha. Enjoy it!

blueox Posted February 10, 2013 Posted February 10, 2013 Oh no Blue ax. I'm a perfectionist and know exactly how I like guitars set up. I play 6 or 7 days a week, and generally have a guitar in my hands more than I don't. It's how i make my living!!! The action is too high right now, and the string gauge too heavy! But, I do like Mystery Train:) Well, it does sound like you're on the right track!
rockabilly69 Posted February 10, 2013 Author Posted February 10, 2013 Blueox, somebody requested Mystery Train today and I played it in your honor!!!
