Goddamn. That Scarlett is one firebreathing motherfuck. I'd love to hear one all up close and personal like.


Agreed. If it has that clarity and saturation in person, it's a real winner in my book.

That it does.  When I was playing it you can tell it cuts through everything while keeping its low end balls.  I thought one of the coolest things is how easy and responsive the feedback/overtones are to control


Finally getting around to posting a pic of my Screamer 70.  Paul at Scarlett Amplification matched it up perfect with the Orange cab.  This thing is a beast!

Yard sale find.  $50.





I haven't played it yet, because a buddy of mine did the recon on the deal.  Was at the yard sale, saw it, sent me these pics, said it was $50 and I said pick it up.  Even if didn't work I figure it was worth $50.

Turns out the tubes and speakers are original, and it works and he tells me it sounds incredible. 

Harmony H303a  8 watts or so.  Original Jensen speaker.
Vinyls.   deal.

Wow, that's purdy. Is it me (or the angle of the photo), but does the string angle from the tailpiece to the bridge look pretty shallow?

I have no idea what you're talking about. My V is about as heterosexual as Burt Reynolds making out with two more Burt Reynolds!

If I was a pedalsmith, my obligatory Big Muff clone would be the Burtriangle Muff.

Bet belee dat!

I love it when guitars really show off the grain and details of the wood.  I also like really thin finishes that let the guitar resonate naturally, plus it just feels better to the hand.

The baritone V is looking good. The grain on that walnut really pops.

thanks when I get it in my hands Ill grab some more pics. I dont have it yet but I am meeting builder soon. The pics of the strung unit dont give much view on how the string angle is so Ill get that when I am actually playing the guitar.

It's an SH4 which I plan on to swap for a Super Distortion DP100.

Thanks man! If you guys seriously are in to lawsuit guitars I recommend checking out the seller chingo123 on eBay. I bought this guitar from him, and I've also bought a Tokai Silver Star in the past. That dude is seriously in to this stuff and he doesn't overcharge either. He has a white Orville Custom up for grabs as well.

This guitar was built in 1995. I paid 800$ for the guitar and that included shipping to Sweden from Japan within 3-4 days.

+1 on that sexy Orville. Maybe it was the same seller but I saw a white Custom on EBay a few months ago for 900 bucks, I shoulda pulled the trigger then...
