naxos10 Posted June 8, 2018 Posted June 8, 2018 (edited) Hi All, Arrived yesterday a new ACG TKO from Alan. It is one of two he has made and it is absolutely stunning, the photo's only get you 90% there. The texture within the wood itself really adds something. It comprises: Black Limba body and top. 3 piece Maple with carbon Rosewood neck, 30.5" scale. Hipshot Type B in chrome.Hipshot string tree, Gotoh GB7 tuners, Dunlop straplocks, Newtone strings. ACG PB pickup with Alnico magnets. Weighs around 7.5lbs (not put it on the scales yet). It has what I would call a true PB sound but with more tonal variation available. Can't wait to try it out at band practice on Tuesday. Edited June 8, 2018 by naxos10 4 Quote
Andyjr1515 Posted June 8, 2018 Posted June 8, 2018 Lovely. The build qualty of ACGs I've seen in real life is superative. Quote
skelf Posted June 8, 2018 Posted June 8, 2018 Glad to see it arrived the tracking was not working. I usually know when stuff has landed but not with this one. Quote
Al Krow Posted June 8, 2018 Posted June 8, 2018 @skelfDo you have a link to your website that you could share please? This has definitely got me interested in your product range! Quote

Wished I had thought of that, but I'm obviously lacking in such basic intelligence... As it happens I tried it, but if it doesn't come up on a first search then I'm not going to keep going, if that's all the same to you? I guess you've not come across SEO rankings... Quote

Cuzzie Posted June 8, 2018 Posted June 8, 2018 @Al Krow if you typed in the search engine “a guitar I saw on Basschat but can’t be arsed to search for the company myself, but I know it begins with A” then it may be hidden. i types in ‘ACG guitars’ and came as the first hit on the first page. Maybe we could crowd fund getting you a lesson at the Genius Bar..... Quote

Type in 'acg' which is all that is on the avatar logo and see what you get? For the record Alan had no problem sharing his website address with me; given that's the case maybe find something more useful to be doing with your afternoon boys than pretending to be God's gift to search engines? AND more importantly can we now get back to Alan's marvellous workmanship and less time on my ability (or lack of) to use Google please! 😂 Edited June 8, 2018 by Al Krow Quote
Cuzzie Posted June 8, 2018 Posted June 8, 2018 (edited) Workmanship never in doubt, known about them for a while. @Al Krow it’s a guitar mate on a guitar thread in a guitar forum on a guitar site you don’t have to be Sherlock to put the it together.... Edited June 8, 2018 by Cuzzie Quote

Btw, if you're into crowd funding something worthwhile then, on a much more serious note, you could do far worse than supporting a couple of our fellow BCers, if you haven't done so already. A little plug from me, if I may: Edited June 8, 2018 by Al Krow Quote
