I'm trading my Vega baritone uke for this little Jake Wildwood creation. Should make a fun little couch guitar.

I see you have the same syndrome as me...
I took it up to Antebellum Instruments for a setup yesterday and the playability and tone is much improved. Jake added shielding tape as there wasn't any which helped a lot with noise. The action and...
I got her back yesterday and what a transformation! New frets, new tuners, lipstick pickup, new nut, and a few other details, and she plays like a dream. The acoustic tone is ok, but nothing compared...
It's perfect for what I wanted it for which is to be able to go to jams whether electric or not and not worry too much about a ding here and there. It already has plenty.

Ok so I've had a chance to play it through a Vox AC4TV and a Red Witch Medusa chorus/tremolo pedal and I'm pretty happy with the sound. To me it has "that tele sound", but I'm not really and...
Btw it is all 4 string parts.
I received the new one today and it's WAY better. However it is made in china and I think the workmanship could be much better for the price. I'll update when I get better acquainted with it.
They sent a prepaid shipping label and sent a replacement the same day. Hopefully the new one is good. I can't complain about their customer service so far, but they need to get a better grip on...
Well it finally came and I'm not too impressed. They forgot a strap button, intonation on the A string is way off, and there is a crack in the fingerboard above the nut. The crack really isn't a...

I paid for mine last Tuesday and haven't received a tracking number yet. Am I wrong to think if you get an invoice, they should be ready to ship your order upon payment?
I hope it's all four...
Google Tenor Guitar Chord Bible. Very comprehensive for CGDA and GDAE tunings.
In the comments section of their page someone asked about that and the reply was that it will be all dedicated 4 string parts. If that changes, I would probably cancel my order. I also wish they...
I put my deposit down on the butterscotch one. A Facebook post caught me at a weak moment. This will be my first electric guitar in years. Now I need an amp...and cables...and some effects...oops.
My luthier fixed the slight bow in my tenor (also pearloid board) by re-fretting with jumbo frets and then leveling and dressing them. No, it isn't the 100% correct way of doing it, but may be the...
Welcome. Just a friendly warning...tenor guitars have a way of multiplying.
I've watched the YouTube video of Tom Kimber playing one dozens of times. If I can ever afford a custom build, the Session King is my dream tenor guitar. The sound is beyond words.
Taps Tavern in Poultney has a weekly jam on Tuesdays. Nice mellow bar with pretty good food.
I was at the Marquis in Middlebury when theirs was going on one night. Very nice space for it. I hope...
I just ordered it. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
Love it. Offbeat projects are awesome.
Indeed he is. He sold me one of these and has worked on all of them and I can still afford to feed myself!

Well I got them and I'm thrilled with both. Especially the tenor. Tons of sustain and bass and plain fun to play. I'll try to post a video soon.
:grin: A soon as tuners come in for my mandolinetto he's fixing, I can pick them both up.
