It has a good messaging system and it is free to remove a listing. In my case, someone contacted me about a guitar for sale, we talked on the phone and set up a trade, then I removed the listing. No fees at all, but 900+ people clicked on my ad and I found a taker.

Gramsci wrote:A book, but LightI really liked Light too. Totally not a movie though. Read Nova Swing after Light and was less impressed.I remember Until the End of the World being really good, to name something not on this list already. Moon was pretty good too. I will also take-in any of the Star T...

That's weird, Beyer didn't steer me anywhere else when I wrote them about my M500 needing reribboning. They just told me they'd refurbish it. Here's the response I got from them: "Reribboning does not always fix the problem. We do a refurb for 180. This replaces 80 percent of the mic." May...

You just need keep the fnord and do this sweet mod.

Yep, RCA I/O. Somewhere here or on TapeOp, I remember reading Greg explain that RCA is actually a really good connection type (at least for short runs) because it has a lot of surface area vs. other types. I console myself with that memory when I cobble-together adapters to get a preamp connected to...

I cheaped-out and got a used MRL off ebay. It has a few dropouts here and there, but what really concerns me is whether the high frequencies are lower on it than they would be on a brand new tape. But in practice, that just means I calibrate using a lower frequency like 10k (or whatever it actually ...

Demagnetizers aren't that hard to find anyway. I guess I was just thinking of accessory-type stuff to ask for if the seller happens to be getting out of reel-to-reels entirely and you happen to be getting into it from scratch. Wildly presumptive of me. FWIW, I had to hunt ebay for months just to pay...

The rack-mounting hardware is real handy and hard to find. Same goes for the manual. And if they have a demagger and an MRL tape that'd also be great. Someone else will probably tell you about head wear, which I'm not an expert on, but that'd be something to look at.

Oh, and I have a Kramer 250G with only a Lace Red/Silver Dually at the bridge, a stock Vaccaro Generator X or something, and a Kramer 350G with a Phat Cat in the neck, another Lace in the bridge position, and a Kahler tremolo just recently installed on it. The 250G sounds exactly like I want a guita...

Friz, That is a sweet axe, yo. I want to mess with it. I corresponded w/ Chris a bit when I lived an hour away from Benton. I daydreamed about being his apprentice or something, or at least having him make me an aluminum body around my Kramer neck. Never did. You scored on the price, too. o
