Bought This Sight Unseen = Real Time Thread

[Dostradamas]

Yes Bullet

 

[FenderGyrl]

Wow...
Plugged it in. This thing is a little beast. Played it thru my Vox for almost an hour. Outta the box.

Neck is fine. Needs the back smoothed out. Keys are surprisingly good. Nut is too high.

Pick Ups are pretty snarly. Lacking midrange. Sounds Scooped when distorted. Sounds Woody when playing clean.

Pots and Switch are fine.
Fun guitar.

I feel like I can do Steve Vai or Paul Gilbert acrobatics when I'm playing
on a Short Scale.

 

[ClashCityTele]

Ooh, very nice. Well done.

 

[stormsedge]

Sweet deal! HNGD!

 

[trev333]

needs a GT stripe..

 

[Hoodster]

Love mine

 

[Mr. St. Paul]

That's not a deal, that's a steal! Congrats!

 

[Alex_C]

I'd rock that!

 

[SecretSquirrel]

Score! I would totally buy another one for that price.
I did something different with mine:

...But, the stock Bullet humbuckers are nice pickups, so I saved them for a future project—and just yesterday it came along—a friend gave me a '91 Epiphone SG with no pickups. I cleaned it up and installed the Bullet HBs — they sound terrific, now this SG is a unique beast:

Yeah...
The Pick Ups are growing on me.
I can't put the darn thing down.

I had a 65 Mustang a long time ago. I recall the body was thinner than a strat or tele, so it may be the same thickness as a vintage mustang.

 

[mimmo]

What a deal, congratulations!

 

[jays0n]

That looks amazing for $95. Well done! Enjoy!

 

[haggardfan1]

Wouldn't be the first time you've turned an inexpensive guitar into a gem!

Enjoy it and keep us up to date if you upgrade it. Nice purchase, white looks good on those bodies.

 

[JustABluesGuy]

Nice! Congratulations!

 

[brookdalebill]

Looks businesslike!

 

[Dana Rudd]

Congrats, looks like a fine Mustang. Enjoy and HNGD.

 

[drmordo]

Congrats, I like it!

 

[Fendereedo]

Nice, congratulations @FenderGyrl

 

[RobRiggs]

The undisputed Queen of the smokin' deal strikes again! Congrats & play the paint off that thing!
