Re: The best money I ever spent

I've used a Mastery bridge on my 325c58 with TI Jazz Swing 12s, and the wound G wasn't a problem. Maybe that's because of the short scale? I'm assuming that the issue with the wound G was about intonation, because there didn't seem to be any problem with seating the wound G. Heavier gauge wound G, m...

Re: (Alleged) Bits of John Lennon's V81 Hit the Auction Bloc

Awfully cool. Nice to see that these original parts still exist. A little sad to think that they will continue to be separated from V81. By that I am not advocating swapping the original parts for the replacements--whatever we think of the 1972 repairs, John approved them at the time. But posterity ...

Re: Commemoration - Your Guitar's Manufacture Anniversary

My 325c58 is 11 years old this week. Reversible mods: trapeze, Burns knobs, Mastery bridge. One reason for John to remove the Rogans; the volume knobs were/are too close together and they collide with each other and get stuck. I don't want to break a Rogan. I've had it for five months. I wanted a gu...

Re: Is there such a thing? Part 2

I get great tone from my 325c58 through my ZT Lunchbox amp--incredibly light, versatile (sounds good with my Jaguar and my Hallmark 60 Custom too), and surprisingly loud. I use ZT's proprietary extension cab for richer sound. I usually use good amp-in-a-box pedals (Wampler Tweed '57 for the 325, Wam...
