jezza boii Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 also. if there's structural damage on a rim... you throw it away. you don't fix it. I wouldn't have bought it if I knew what condition it was in. I guess that's the risk you run when importing wheels through J-Imports though... I blame Hamish for suggesting it!

funkymonkey Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 you imported IMO average wheels? why? weren't there ones pre-imported that were already in oz? also, do these guys not ask sellers questions and inspect the stuff when they arrive in japan? you know... before you ship em half way across the world for near the cost of the wheels. its importing 2nd hand rims altogether, its a risk in general..... cant blame Thuy that's complete BS. there's no risk at all if you don't deal with amateurs.

I got a low res pic that only showed the top of the rims and you couldn't see any damage at all.

(OO)SKYLINE(OO) Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 I didn't say I was going to buy anything worth that price I just meant it's easy to spend that much on 2 guitars and amp rig. I've got a mate with an $11,000 guitar At this stage I'm just going to buy a cheap amp for gigs (~$1000) and borrow my singer's Strat or Tele. Luckily I can use them on recordings too One day I'll buy my own decent guitars. At this stage I just can't justify it. $11K for a guitar is just fucked up! Decent $500 - $600 for a guitar is good enough. You can't justify it cuz your spending on the MR2 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/310874-vic-wasteland-thread/page/338/#findComment-5345607 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jezza boii Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Decent $500 - $600 for a guitar is good enough. Depends on music style. My $700 Schecter sounds like poo for what I play. I reckon $1000 - $2000 is a good price range for a guitar, then a similar amount spent on an amp.

Buy a decent amp? Use of effects pedals? Well if you have a decent Head and Amp, you won't need pedals. + when you play live everything is mic'd up. BC Rich / Dean / Washburn / EPS / LTD / Jackson / Schecter are all good, but all the guitar tech heads love there Gibsons... I have a BC Rich / Fender / Yamaha x 2. Still looking for a Dean / Washburn or might go ESP or anther BC Rich.

jezza boii Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 (edited) All those guitars you listed are great for metal/hardcore/rock etc. but not what I play. Don't get me wrong, my dream guitar is an ESP F-400 FM (picture below) but it would still sound like shit in my band. A Telecaster (as ugly as I find them) probably produce the best sound for what I play. How sexy is that?

In that case, the Fender Telecaster will suite what you'd want to play more. (From memory it was Soft Rock) was the style you like playing. Having said that, Jim Root (Slipknot) and John 5 (Marilyn Manson) have used Fender Telecasters but of course with custimisation but use these guitars to give a different texture of sound.
