    WTB Looking for set of McCarty pickups.

    Yeah, i wanted to give the guy the benefit of the doubt, but it just seemed very unlikely that someone at ups opened the package took out the pickups, and put a pack of old navy dress socks in the box and perfectly sealed it back up. UPS almost laughed aty me when i told them what the claim was...

    Recommendations for top notch guitar refinisher on east coast.

    Wanted to get a 2005 prs refinished. Wondering if anyone had any recommendations on a reputable finisher on the east coast? Looking for a solid metal flake finish, not some fancy dye job. So need someone that is good working with paint.

    Sources for great guitar flight cases?

    When you get new ones, order some silica pouches online. When you store them for long periods of time with no guitars in them throw a pouch or 2 in them. Stops them from developing mold. Also you can probably find somewhere online to make you the stencil and then you can just spray it on...
