Thanks.

The DeArmond Starfire is a really decent guitar but I'm was not real crazy about the neck pickup sound that much on that model. I went back to the model M77-T (chambered body) which I really prefer.

Great stuf. I want one of these, but plan on trading out the 2Ks with something from Mr. TV Jones.

[leonc1234]

@Zuhzuhzombie - Ah, that'd probably sound great too. I dig the 2Ks though. They sound really unique. I ultimately sold this guitar and bought another M77-T, which I really prefer. They're both very nice though.

@leonc1234 Hi--are you still going to make a video going over the chords you've played here? Or did you already make one and i just haven't found it?

nice guitar but not too versatile. I think it's better to used it on rockabilly or rock 'n' roll music than jazz.

@Zuhzuhzombie

I have an M-77T and swapped out the 2K's for TV Jones classics. They're great, but definitely brighter and less snarly than the 2K's. They don't hum though, which is nice.  Basically it just means they can sound much more chimey but still get plenty nasty if you eq right. Heck, I play crazy metal on them all the time. My M-77 is like the best of both the LP and Gretsch world now.

@Zuhzuhzombie the dearmond pickups are amazing. Better than any tv jones.

Nice playing.

I've got the exact same guitar - it was something of an impulse buy back brief period they made them and I've always been glad I had that impulse - unlike some of my other impulse buys, I still love that guitar.
