We tend to call it LayFlat around here. It's pretty flat.

I was an extra in Hoosiers and can spot my sister and I in the crowd a few times. Pretty cool- saw Dennis Hopper and Gene Hackman up close during the fight scene where Hopper comes in all drunk and later on in the celebration.

Haven't jumped on a powder drop in a few months. Couldn't say no to this. I kind of want to grind it up and roll it into a grape flavored swisher wrap.

I’d smoke it

By courtesy of a special on Amazon Japan.

I ordered these on Friday last and they arrived today. Four days, not counting the weekend.

I am very averse to 60Hz hum and trust that these will alleviate this, if not remove it altogether.

Is that from LMS?

Yep

Nice

Didn’t take it out of the plastic yet, but I too got an enclosure in the latest LMS powder drop. First time I’ve actually committed to it and jumped on one before they sold out— I absolutely adore green, and hammered stuff is my shit, so I couldn’t resist. Knobs as placeholders for the layout I’ll be using, but I think I may go for white instead of black when I actually build it (which will be after I figure out a method of adding labels to such a heavily textured powdercoat)— this’ll be getting a germanium Fuzz Face (with external Q2 bias) and a Germanium naga viper (rangemaster with additional input capacitor blend, and a gain control) with an order switch. It’ll be using the MP38A transistors I got in the group buy months ago.


I also got knobs and the pot values I was missing so I can finally build the incredible @steviejr92 Rat Salad over this thanksgiving break, and the submini toggle I needed to finish the @bean Tappy (tap tempo expression/cv generator)

I dont think ive seen that color hammered finish before. I like it alot!

 

[Smrtokvitek]

History ZSA. My first "new" guitar after a long time. I got a really good deal so I couldn't resist.

Still a few left I think!
It’s a really neat color. I missed out on the green hammered drop from amplified parts, but this is even cooler so I’m happy

Nice! That's out of the Fujigen factory?

 

[Smrtokvitek]

Yes, exactly. The ZSA is the lowest ES model they made/make but definitely not a "budget guitar". Higher models have "fancy" old wood (fished out of the lake) and more expensive hardware. Otherwise, the craftmanship should be the same I guess. It is really nicely made. This one has pickups changed for Seth Lovers but I also got the original ones with it.

Amplify fun should be able to handle it. Is it more textured than tayda hammered finishes?

Feels a bit more cratery than Tayda. Forgot about Amplifyfun though— that should do the trick!
