Re: Set neck Ric 330 Semihollow copy

How does that whole shipping thing work? I carve you a cheque or money order for an agreed upon price and you ship via Purolator, UPS etc.? I`ve never even thought about this with a guitar, hence my rather dumb questions?

Re: Set neck Ric 330 Semihollow copy

Hi Charles,

Would grab this from you in a heartbeat if you are nearby? I`m a few minutes north of Guelph, Ontario. I may have a family member heading to Ottawa next week if this is your stomping grounds? I`ve never done the whole shipping thing when it comes to guitars? Cheers !! Bruce

Re: El Degas ES 345

Thanks itchyfingers ! Sounds remarkably good unplugged being that it`s 100% hollow {no center block}.

Re: El Degas ES 345

Thanks Barry !! I`ve been awaiting your words of wisdom. The varitone is a new thing for me. Always intrigued by the ES-355 that Alex Lifeson used so much in the late `70s and early `80s and has resurrected for some songs on recent tours. And I`m one that likes to keep things simple. The varitone is ...

Re: El Degas ES 345

The fellow had this advertised as a 335 which the varitone immediately proved otherwise. My first impression was 347 after dismissing the 355. An image search on Yahoo had me settle on 345. Now perhaps further research is warranted? The lack of a center block really introduces a curveball doesn`t it ...

Re: El Degas ES 345

I`ll take your word on that color Charles. This El Degas does not feel much heavier than the 2008 Chinese Epiphone Casino I unloaded this morning happily for $400...the same as what I paid for this El Degas bad boy. Perhaps this is steep, but who cares? It walks all over the Epiphone in ...

Re: El Degas ES 345

It`s really hard to capture the shade of what appears to this color-blind fellow as a dark wine red? Two of a perfect pair.

I wonder where all the rest of these lovely hollow-body El Degas guitars ended up? They don`t ...

Hello all. Pleased to present the ES style guitar I have been seeking for quite some time and brought home tonight. In remarkable condition with flawless electronics.

Re: ES345 Copy (CAN)

I would LOVE to get my hands on any El Degas ES style guitar. A sunburst in tobacco or cherry would really excite me. Anything available in the Guelph-Kitchener region. Putting a WANTED ad up on Kijiji very shortly.

Re: Ancient El Degas Memories

The kind of film that we had to take in for developing unless of course we had our own dark room? Nor was there any of that one-hour-photo back then !! Now if only I could find that old photo of my white El Degas flanked by my Mann Les Paul and my buddy`s Granada Les Paul. I`ll keep looking. I`m ...

Ancient El Degas Memories

Hi All....photo featuring my white El Degas Stratocaster from around 1980 when I was a skinny teen. The black P-bass is also El Degas and belonged to a friend. My double neck an Ibanez, the arch-top a Harmony and the acoustic a Yamaha. All these guitars have been scattered in the wind. Would love to ...

Re: El Degas Les Paul-Maple Neck

Okay Barry...my boo-boo. I had thought "pancake" was a reference to thickness? You`re right. Definitely solid construction. Any thicker would be very heavy.
