Garage Sale Bargain

[Leedspool]

its a Rogue Rocketeer stratish like tele SSH

I was just out walking the dog and this was sat outside on a neighbor garage sale table. After very little haggling it was had for $30 CanD

First thoughts was to flip it with a few others I have for flip, but when I spent 1/2 hour setting it up and plugged it in to my surprise it sounded really good. So good it made it to the keep pile )

Welcome to TTR...

That black Tele's fretboard really stands out!

 

[Leedspool]

Wow yeh I not noticed that before you said Syscokid. It just been lemon oiled and I was between adding strings

I picked it up last month, it’s a black Chrome Squier standard. I swopped the pick guard out not a fan of the chrome.

[Leedspool]

Lol, was lemon oiling the fret board between a string change.

I’ve played those Ernie Ball Inviso-Slinky’s.

They sound pretty good. They have a light, airy quality to them. The bends are really easy, too.

But, you can’t get a pinch harmonic out of them to save your life.

Congrat's on the score. I just traded an amp and a guitar for 2 guitars I was going to flip & unexpectedly the 1 I thought I would move out 1st or feel I wouldn't like is the 1 I am keeping! I haven't put the cheap RR I got down, the EMG's sound great to & it is set up with 11's! So it is staying! The Schecter is on it's way out....

We sure are...we're all just 3 cities away from each other in the same region. What a coincidence.

3 cities that are more like suburbs of Toronto itself. Combined the 3 cities (Ajax, Whitby and Oshawa) are approximately 350,000 people and it literally takes approximately 30 minutes to drive from the far west side of Ajax to the furthest east side of Oshawa.
