| RockNRollRobbieBoyTheRockNRollRockStar User Info... |  I still want the red 1 when I can afford it. - Wed, 16 May 2007 5:56pm | ||
| fine bottle of wine User Info... | do these guys do any bass's, these look pretty rad - Wed, 16 May 2007 6:15pm | ||
| THC Guitars User Info... |  As the first THC player of the guitar body style pictured, Rob has aptly named this shape the THC "Impaler". Band mates beware of the arrowhead headstocks. A blow to the head or body is potentially fatal. Later, Toby - Wed, 16 May 2007 6:49pm | ||
| THC Guitars User Info... |  We are currrently focused on guitars but hope to expand into basses in the near future. Thanx for looking! Toby - Thu, 17 May 2007 11:25pm | ||
| sonic the hemp hog User Info... | be honest, how much does the poor sap in china get for these guitars? $60-$70 each? - Fri, 18 May 2007 12:42am | ||

| Aidan Logins User Info... | That's one of the reasons I just bought a Godin and a Traynor. Canadian made. No slave labour ! :) THCs look alright though maybe. Not my bag. - Fri, 18 May 2007 10:18am | ||
| Tim-Bitchfork User Info... | hahaha "THC "Sativacaster""...best guitar name ever. Sonic, do you ever say anything thats not stupid or arrogant on this forum? Do you like even play music? Like we come on here to buy gear, discuss music. I just question your motivations to just come on here to make an ass of yourself. - Fri, 18 May 2007 10:48am Edited: Fri, 18 May 2007 10:54am | ||
| Aidan Logins User Info... | Make an ass of himself AND pick up chicks. - Fri, 18 May 2007 11:09am | ||
| etohk User Info... | What kind of body/neck/fingerboard woods are these made of? - Fri, 18 May 2007 11:57am | ||
| Dan User Info... | So, whats wrong with giving the chinaman $70? not like Aidan Logins up there, trying to put the already poor chinaman out of work. - Mon, 21 May 2007 9:55am | ||
| THC Guitars User Info... | Sonic the hemp hog: “be honest, how much does the poor sap in china get for these guitars? $60-$70 each?” First, you are not even close. The manufacturer of these guitars and their employees are paid well for their work (on relative wage scale). I am well aware of global diseconomies so don’t even bother going there. Next time you are about to post a brilliant comment on a message board, take a quick look at the bottom of your keyboard, mouse and computer…Made in China. If you feel so strongly, never play another CD, touch your phone, use your computer, put on underwear, socks and shoes or touch another electronic gadget again (MP3 player). If you look around your house you will notice that almost every product in your house or the components will have originated from China. Go bitch to Fender, ESP, BC Rich, Schecter, Gibson and Jackson about why they employ manufacturers in Indonesia, China, Malaysia, India, Korea and Sri Lanka. We placed a very small order through a small company that is trying to get established. We are not a massive corporation with the goal of maximising profits at the expense of individuals in other countries. In short, fuck off and shut the fuck up! - Mon, 21 May 2007 7:34pm | ||
| Dave User Info... | how much would one of the impalers go for? roughly im a drum guy but having a few guitars around the house can be fairly nifty for jams - Fri, 25 May 2007 2:21pm | ||
| THC Guitars User Info... | Hey Dave, We've have a very nice gloss black 'Impaler' that would be $375+PST with the stock pickups. If you would like to upgrade the pickups to the GuitarHead actives that would add $150 to the cost ($125 if you want to install the active set yourself). We also have a couple of matte black and matte gray 'Impalers' left. Feel free to call me for more info/options. Thanks, Toby ph.479-2307 - Fri, 25 May 2007 5:24pm | ||
| J. Peatman User Info... | Any remote chance of a white Iceman model being released at some point? I would be very much interested. - Fri, 25 May 2007 5:40pm | ||
| THC Guitars User Info... | No plans to release a guitar along the lines of an Iceman at the moment. If anything we will be concentrating on designing our own models/shapes. Thanks! - Thu, 31 May 2007 9:54pm | ||
| Mofo User Info... | THC...well said on your last reply there to Sonic... In anycase do you guys sell these through any chains here locally? Forgive my ignorance, just never heard of you guys....love the designs though very sweet indeed... do you have a website.... will check you guys out in google, cheers - Fri, 1 Jun 2007 1:10pm | ||
| Mofo User Info... | ok...me smart like football bat... I just saw the link on your first post, cheers - Fri, 1 Jun 2007 1:16pm | ||
| THC Guitars User Info... | Hey Mofo, I haven't approached local retailers yet in the hopes of keeping costs down for the end consumer. Retail always adds substantially to the final cost. Our goal is to provide quality instruments at reasonable prices. I think we all know that musicians tend to suffer from gear acqusition syndrome (GAS) while also lacking the funds to feed their insatiable hunger. Talk to you soon, Toby P.S. Any questions feel free to call or email. We are located in Victoria. - Fri, 1 Jun 2007 5:05pm | ||
| THC Guitars User Info... | Any questions please feel free to ask. We are located in Victoria if you would like to come by and check out a guitar. Thanks! - Fri, 8 Jun 2007 12:23am | ||
| Dave User Info... | you guys really need to get a site setup, displaying all the models available and such also is there any situation involving basses i have a friend who may be interested - Sat, 9 Jun 2007 9:16pm | ||
| THC Guitars User Info... | Hey Dave, I couldn’t agree more…I have been meaning to get a site put together and just figured the MySpace page would have to suffice for now. I’m in school full-time + plus 24 hrs of clinical per week and I have 3 children under the age of 5 (one newborn). In other words there a lot of things I intend to do but never find the time. This first order of guitars was really intended to clarify which models and colours have the greatest appeal. All of the models we currently have are pictured on livevictoria.com or the MySpace page. If there is a specific model/colour you are interested in, please feel free to call, email for pictures, or setup a time to come by and check out a guitar (we are located in Victoria). We are looking at basses, but we have to see how the guitars go first. If we endorsed everyone on MySpace who has requested to be endorsed we wouldn’t have any guitars available. I will post pics of the various models/colours on livevictoria.com in the coming days. Thanks, Toby THC Guitars http://www.myspace.com/thcguitars - Sat, 9 Jun 2007 10:01pm Edited: Sat, 9 Jun 2007 10:04pm | ||
| RockNRollRobbieBoyTheRockNRollRockStar User Info... | Hey, I better be at the top of the list for endorsees. Or else. lol. Hope all is well and your getting enough sleep. - Sun, 10 Jun 2007 4:15pm | ||
| laprider User Info... | Hey guys, not bitching in anyway, but please lose the yellow font on yer myspace...I couldn't make out a word! - Sun, 10 Jun 2007 9:42pm | ||
| THC Guitars User Info... | Hi All, Just in case I failed to mention this. We are located in Victoria and people are welcome to come by and try out guitars. You can save $ now, before we begin to appraoch retail outlets, where retail mark up, PST and GST apply. Thanks, Toby - Fri, 15 Jun 2007 2:34pm | ||
| Wil User Info... | where exactly in victoria are you guys? - Fri, 15 Jun 2007 7:18pm | ||
| Wil User Info... | and do you do basses? also, is there any other type of headstock besides the arrow-head? - Fri, 15 Jun 2007 7:20pm | ||
| THC Guitars User Info... | HI Laprider, I think the background hadn't laoded on your computer, which is why the script was so unclear (the background is red, not grey). Thanks, Toby - Sun, 17 Jun 2007 10:31pm | ||
| THC Guitars User Info... |  We are located in the Royal Oak Area, fairly close to the Royal Oak shopping Centre. We are curretnly based out of our residence. We do not currently do basses but may in the near future. We currently offer the arrowhead headstock and our alternate headstock which we use on our strat shaped "Sativacaster" - Sun, 17 Jun 2007 10:37pm Edited: Sun, 17 Jun 2007 10:42pm | ||
| Wil User Info... | thats wicked, how much would a "Impaler" (the gibson explorer shape) with a stavia head cost me? - Mon, 18 Jun 2007 9:21pm | ||
| THC Guitars User Info... | Hate to be a downer Wil, but the 'Impaler' originates came from the arrowhead headstock. The alternate headstock is currently only available on the strat shaped guitars. Unfortunately the guitars all have set necks so swapping necks would be a bit messy. Let me know if you are interested in the Explorer style. The arrowhead headstock looks much better in person. Thanks, Toby ph.479-2307 - Wed, 20 Jun 2007 12:15am Edited: Wed, 20 Jun 2007 12:16am | ||

| almix12 User Info... | Yes, a deal of the week would be dope. E-mail sent about a V4. Thanks, Alex - Tue, 26 Jun 2007 9:04pm | ||
| J User Info... | guitars look very kool! and the price point is even more impressive... Im more or less a tire kicker(mostly cuz I cant afford anything right now lol!) for guitars, but I own my fair share. These guitars look very inticing! Where would someone be able to give these a try? sorry if you've already posted an answer its just I dont have the time at work to read through everything... would be appreciated if you could let me know! feel free to post it here or email me off my profile. thanks in advance - Fri, 29 Jun 2007 2:44pm | ||
| THC Guitars User Info... | Hey J, For some reason your email address is not included in your user info section. We are located in the Royal Oak Area, fairly close to the Royal Oak shopping Centre. We are currenyly based out of our residence, but people are more than welcome to come by and try out a guitar. Thanks, Toby THC Guitars ph. 479-2307 - Mon, 2 Jul 2007 7:50pm | ||
| Anatol User Info... |  Just got a THC Impaler yesterday and I must say it kicks serious ass, it's as good as it looks! This is the matte black finish and it looks even better in person. The stock pickups are actually great, and the hardware is solid too. This guitar is way WAY better than any epiphone or jackson you will see at L&M for the same price. Please do yourself a favor and check out these guitars ASAP. Thanks again Toby! I posted more pics in the general discussion for anyone interested. - Sun, 8 Jul 2007 1:50pm | ||
| THC Guitars User Info... |  Here are some pics of a Gloss Black V4 with the GuitarHeads actives installed for Peter from the the bands Vomitory and The Law (Sweden). Please feel free to contact with any questions. The guitars are well built, are very reasonably priced and even the stock humbuckers sound damn good. ph. 479-2307 - Sat, 14 Jul 2007 6:13pm | ||
