OP should get one just because they're sexy af.

I almost really like these guitars. I'm a fan of the headstock, but the body isn't quite there yet for me. Really keen to see where they end up in a few years. And they're Canadian. The fret markers are nicely themed with the name of the company.

The Duo Sonic is not what you're looking for. If you want Les Paul sound you want a Les Paul esk guitar . Kinda.

(snip)

But the new Duo Sonic? If you want a LP? Meh... Cool ass guitar though. Rip that strat bridge off for a Wilkinson tele bridge and you're talking Duo Sonic on steroids. Just not ...

Locking tuners are on. Man do they make a difference. Seems I didn't make all the holes for the feet deep enough so I gotta do a little adjusting next string change, which won't be too long at this rate. The 10 gauge strings make it a completely different guitar. Bends are actually easier (far less ...

Thanks. I was kind of hoping they'd also have a blue one, but part of me is glad I didn't have to choose. It's so much fun to play that I've hardly put it down since I bought it. Not even to do a half-assed setup beyond fixing rattles. Picked up some locking tuners, some nice Fender's, but sadly ...

Is that bass really light, or is your Mustang very heavy?

welcome

How did you know my life's ambition is to have my songs playing on the radio next to Bono's..... Momma always did say I had the perfect face for radio.

All we need is a drummer and then we'll have a band nobody in their right mind would want to listen to. 8)

jagsonic...I hate to break it to your wallet, but it's kind of futile to resist. It's a crazy amount of guitar for the price. Only complaints are the high gloss finish on the neck and crap ...

I figured that since I've lurked and pilfered this forum for info the least I could do is show you folks the end result. (And who doesn't enjoy some guitar porn?) Technically NGD was 2 days ago (Tuesday?), but only just now putting it down long enough for pictures. First guitar for me in, yikes ...
