Brave search link, really?

This might sound pathetic, but...I have no idea how to do what you described.

-What is wrong with Brave search links? (oblig. 'I am not a computer person').

It's a search result which means it will expire at some point.

Thanks for the detailed explanation, I use a laptop but have no idea how to do things most children can do. But I can build a house by myself, or a boat!

I like Gretsch Basses too.

Weird, I never saw one I liked enough to buy, but I love most of the guitars. I have a dark red maple 5120.

I am a total beginner... I am learning in mid-life, but played piano and violin. Have also mixed sound for live shows, and had an old arena sound dude tell me I was too picky. So I have a good ear. The guitar is so fun and so complicated, that I am enjoying my shittiness and every dumb little accomplishment thoroughly! I bought a Gretsch resonator because it was beautiful, and I had the shop guy strum it a bit, and it had a warm full tone to it. I don't do it justice.

I love a good Bigsby and Gretsch makes some great examples.

I know this will sound strange, but you can probably find something similar on Amazon (made by IYV, Firefly, or something similar) that's in the $300 range - and, get this, it'll actually be playable. It'll actually sound as good as you can make it sound.

The QC on a $300 guitar today is as good as a $600 guitar just a decade ago. It's fucking amazing. We're in a golden era of guitar.

The Leo Jaymz name comes up a lot in the reviews done by people who review the more affordable guitars. I haven't played one, but I bet it plays just fine.

10 years ago, you'd have been hard pressed to find a $200 guitar that played well. 20 years ago, a $200 guitar was like an $80 guitar today.

(I've watched a ton of content as a part of my project.)

Lately, I've picked up an IYV Les Paul copy (made in Vietnam) and a Fender Mustang LT25 (probably made in China, I don't actually know). They're simply amazing at the price point.

I used to own a antique/curio store, and also sold guitars I bought at yard sales, after I cleaned and fixed them. I think any horrible guitar can be made good if u have the know-how and tools. Thanks to CNC machines, guitars today are better than ever. A new Jap Gretsch is better than a 1950s USA version. Heresy, but true.

I love my Squier Jaguar bass and guitar, but take the USA Jazz bass to first-time jamz bcuz snobs are everywhere.
