My new find--  BLUE BYRDLAND



20 year old custom archtop. Gibson Byrdland specs-- solid maple TOP & BACK, solid mahogany side and one-piece mahogany neck.  Ebony fingerboard, gold-Gotoh tuners.  Set-up for gauge 12.  Acoustically loud, clear and very resonant.

Any recommended affordable gig bags for a semihollow? I just got a hamer echotone. Mono is a bit pricey. Thanks!

Sorry late reply -- vintage archtops are hard to find in the local market.  Mostly laminate or pressed top.  Carved top, e.g. mine is maple carved, was a lucky catch.

workmanship and finish of this guitar is great.

about the pups, they are called fidelitron. fender's version of gretsch's filtertron. i cannot compare both pups coz i don't own a gretsch guitar. though i tried one in a store before, i cannot give an accurate comparison. but as far as i can remember, the fidelitron is a bit warmer sounding.

Hi I got a chinese Epiphone Casino Coupe last July and I have a problem with dealing with feedback (i know it is a common problem for hollow bodies), does anyone know how I could eliminate, or at least minimize the feedback my guitar generates? Like a pedal or somesort?

^lagyan ng foam yun pinakabutas ng body. It helps reducing feedback.

Get a solid body.  That's why they were invented.

Thanks bro. She is indeed beautiful. There's something about the subtlety of the flamed top and how it pops out at different angles and lighting.  :-)

my second hollow, my first was an Ibby AF75 trans orange (missing it).

needs some refret though, leaning on stainless steel frets, thoughts or suggestions?
