Kenosha Warrior Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Its always seemed like a worthwhile mix. Ive started a collection of guitars and my most recent addition, an epiphone SG Special. $140cdn for it. I'm making a modified hardshell case to fit in the empty space in my roof. I'm going to stuff a hardshell case into it, cut the lid so it opens into the cab, put some clip-straps in the case itself to hold the guitar and voila. safe storage for my guitars while at school. any other guitarists here?

Oizarod115 Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 guitar player here... one ibanez sa160 with an active EMG humbucker i put in last year, and one fender acoustic. but... what extra headroom? i can fit my acoustic behind my seats without anyone the wiser... (buckets) just wish i had 2dr flip seats... i have to move the whole seat to get it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyComanche Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 The 2-dr flip seats come with funky rails so they sit higher. I actually like it because I can see over the hood better. But, if I put the sun visor down at all, I can't see $#!&. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Druville Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 ive been playing for a little while, about 8 years. tho everytime i move my gear, it fills the back of the truck. Music is one of the biggest reasons i bought my comanche, so i would have room for all the bands gear. i have a custom home-built Yamaha; maple body/neck , with a clear lexan pickgaurd and soon to be backlit with 50 super bright LEDs, powered by a EMG 81 active. its my guitar of +10 blinding metal. hah, I'm an uber nerd too BTW. oh and it has a really cool flamed set bridge and black tuners that are angled, just so it would stand out from every guitar ive ever seen.

Kenosha Warrior Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 niice guitar otherguy. nick, I don't have a roofliner, and I'm only 5'11 so i can try to fit something in there :P behind the seat is where Id like to mount an amp and subwoofer, ossibly rip apart a small 15-20 watt practice amp, put the controls in the glove box and stuff the amp guts behind the seat for on-road practice.

possum Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Blues, Jazz, and Heavy Metal guitarist/ bassist here. My latest find was a Dean EVO special it's a Les Paul copy (looks like the guitar Slash played in Guns & Roses) needs a little electronic TLC but beautiful otherwise. And it's a real screamer. For the bottom I got a Charvel Charvette 4-string Caddilac pearl white. Not to mention a few assorted accoustics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
