Ridiculous Reverb Listings 40

[@RasCuban33]

That Rick Kelly is surprising because a lot of his work is amazing. He’s using 100 year old reclaimed pine from the Bowery (CBGCs) area of NYC. King Arthur apparently owns that dragon guitar now.

[@marcraygun6290]

I have box for 60s bigsby with instructions maybe I should sell that , hadn't occurred to me before

[@A.J.K87]

I love that on the Zak Wylde listing he masked the original msrp in one of the pictures. He knows he's asking a ridiculous price.

[@p4fizzle]

hahaha well spotted

[@danielcastrodelamata8873]

The micro explorer is adorable and with the amp and case it’s a pretty cool combo but way too expensive Rick Kelly is an awesome luthier, I facetimed him and Cindy from their shop in NYC snd they’re wonderful and gave me great tips. They make awesome stuff, but clients ask for really wtf items at times so they make it, just letting everyone know because I’m a fan of their work :)

[@jeanlessisjeanless992]

That Jenna Jameson was actually factory production from 2002. It's just a base model KV with a decal, but they fetch a pretty penny now.

[@JohannesLabusch]

It's for people who've heard "you suck" too many times when they played guitar.

[@squawk3120]

The most outrageous thing is Reverb itself with their sales fees, shipping label costs with them trying to send tax forms on top of it all. I’m done with them unless all of their shenanigans change.

[@mattwarren6116]

Looks like a lot of people beat me to the punch and said that Jackson actually did release that Jenna guitar. I remember teaching guitar at a local music store and the guy who ran the store was all excited when he showed me the official ordering catalogue for Jackson. He never did order one for his store though.

[@tonyelgordo7508]

Jackson had a deal with JJ, where she was a spokes model in the 80s. There are a few of this JJ Jackson’s around.

That Joe Bonamassa Kitchen Discription killed me😂😂😂

[@ChuckNicholsonTRM]

One of the main reasons people bought TOM bridges alone back then was to replace the wooden bridge saddle on archtop guitars. For example, a guy with a 1955 Gibson ES-175 would have a guitar that came with a wooden bridge saddle. If he wanted the intonation advantages of a TOM, he could simply buy the ABR-1 alone and put it right on the wooden bridge base that was already fitted to the guitar's top, notch the saddles for the strings and then be able to fine tune the intonation of the strings individually. That's something that can't be done with a wooden saddle.

[@Gattygoon]

Trogly would buy that tuneomatic box in a second.

That Dragon guitar is made by Carmine Street guitars, a shop in New York which has been around a while. That one is defintiely a bit of a miss, but most of what they do is pretty cool work with old timber. Cindy Guitars who works there does wicked stuff with wood burning designs. I think Rhett Shull did a video with her there recently.

[@musicplaylists59]

tiny guitars like that always remind me of the part in Spinal Tapp where Nigel plays that tiny blue guitar.

[@alexanderadley4053]

That Martper guitar looks like a redone Harley Benton, but I could be wrong.

[@JohannesLabusch]

That little zig zag thingy is a thousand bucks too many, but it's CUTE. And hey, Carmine Street Guitars is a LEGEND. This guy makes mostly Telecasters from "Bowery Pine", wood that has been harvested from old buildings. His co-worker is a really good artist, she paints fun stuff on guitars. I think Rhett Shull has a video where he got something designed by her. The store is tiny and crammed, not even sure it's still there, but it was always worth a visit.

[@castleanthrax1833]

Yeah, I remember that place. They had loads of really old timber, stacked up in the back. ✌️

[@thebuck1152]

That pickup could have been worth the price of the teisco.......

[@michaelbackhus1923]

The paperwork on the gibson tun-o-matic bridge box looks a little bit new and clean.....like a photo copy.

[@mattlombardi54]

That industrial punk Flying V is pretty sick imo, not sure about the price but then again it’s functional art so if it plays and functions well I’d consider it lol.

[@ckortjester]

I’ve been looking for a new amp, mainly toward an Orange Rocker 15 to drop output to bedroom levels for my apartment. Reaaaally wish this thing had the low power options that come with the Duchess.

Jena Jameson is the original model produced by Jackson and it was dirt cheap at the beginning (middle 00's) It's basically KVX10D model.

if that industrialpunk flying v has dimmable LEDs it's gonna have so much noise when you turn the lights on.

[@kubak89]

This flying V is a modded Harley Benton, I think it looks cool, but that's a lot of money to pay for a cheap Chinese guitar, even one that's pretty decent.

[@Greenburg]

Yeah, that listing is basically a scam. The item description is really fluffy, basically all bullshit, and doesn't mention that it's a Harley Benton whatsoever.

I’ve seen a couple of those Martpers at Kurosawa music here in Tokyo. They have some serious vibe, but they’re clearly Harley Bentons with excessive mods. Probably more for the V-Kei crowd to use in videos than to be a functional instrument.

[@davedixon2167]

Martper makes really cool looking stuff in the steampunk vibe, but that's $1800 for what looks like a Harley Benton flying-V before the mods (shape between the wings at the tail is why I say that), so I'm not too sure how high-quality the end result is going to be as an instrument.

Re: Industrial Punk (new genre there?) Flying V custom. I also had a love/hate reaction. Just met this one seconds ago but I already love to hate it and hate to love it. One of the ugliest guitars I've seen recently and it probably plays and sounds appropriately bad too. If it said Gibson Custom Shop on it, Trogly would've already bought this one.

[@garykeller15]

Gibson/Epiphone before they ripped off Deans Split tail v for Zakk Wylde. They ripped off Schecter with this Epiphone zakk Wylde graveyard guitar. Before this was made Schecter Made i think they called it the coffin guitar/bass. they made a bass version for the bassist of white zombie. so there is 2 incidents Gibson/Epiphone ripping the body shape from another company.

[@switchp8286]

Steampunk never works on objects that aren't originally mostly metal. A fake sort of rusty brown finish on a guitar just looks, well, fake. The gym locker grating is more tacky than appealing. They won't sell it at that price but I'm sure someone will be dumb enough to buy it when the seller knocks 1k off of it.

[@TheRainCityPunk]

Marty Mcfly would buy that first one

[@danwilson9530]

I’m surprised as hell you don’t know who Rick Kelly of Carmine Street Guitars is. I’ll agree the dragon guitar is not very appealing, but I’m sure there’s a story behind why it was built and strong chance it was special ordered by and custom built to a customers specifications. I’ve long wanted a hand built T-style Rick Kelly guitar made from the reclaimed old growth pine Rick salvages from hundred year old Manhattan buildings when they are demolished. Bill Kirchen plays Kelly guitars and is how I discovered Carmine Street Guitars in Manhattan. Watch the documentary “Carmine Street Guitars” here on KZbin. You have the wrong impression of Rick and his work from this one example.
