All, Need a bit of help on this. I have been thinking about putting together something starfire-ish.
But, I am really not sure where to start. I had one of the deArmonds for a while and it was just really lacking. Played well, sounded good. But just was not "there". I sold it off. I didn't think about it for a while, started thinking about out and looking into it and found out that DeArmond is gone. And also, that everybody put the darkstars in and all of a sudden they became god like..
Well, I obviously screwed up and missed the boat.
So, I checked out a 2001(?) Guild at a place locally $2000! It also seemed like a longer scale than the deArmond? WOW. Ouch! no way. And it was just lacking too..
So, Any ideas? Start off with the Jack Casady? Ibanez art core? Gretsch (tried one, actually pretty nice)?
Thanks!!!!
