I'm having fun trying different strings on my Gibson.
J Pearse 80/20's are the clear leaders at the moment but I'll try others too ... you never know!
These strings were delivered yesterday - order incomplete, still some DR Hi-Beams and Jim Dunlop and Fender picks to come.

I recently got a rose gold Shubb capo. I love the color! Same great capo. I totally bought it for the color. What can I say? I am an accessory junkie. It’s like GAS - no known cure.
Best,
Jayne

Okay it's not a guitar. My custom-built 10 string mandocello came with some cheapo no-name Chinese tuners years ago. I just got a set of Grover milk-bottle 18:1 tuners and ebony buttons for them. I put a set on my 10 string mandola last year and they are great.

Also a bunch of strings - I'm trying Mapes on my F5 mandolin and of course Curt Mangan for the mandocello and a few guitars.

"What did I just get for my guitar"? I was hoping to say $6000. But can't.

Just got the package from Thomann Europe - two blank bone saddles, a set of unexpectedly beautiful bone bridge pins with abalone eye and a Humidipak refill kit.

I bought two sets of Newtone Masterclass strings and two other sets of Wyres strings, plus some picks made with real 1920's celluloid

Just yesterday, I received a delivery from Amazon which consisted of a bottle of Music Nomad all in One cleaner/polish/wax and a six pack of microfiber cloths.
