    i only fucks with vintage...


    '62 Gibson B-25 Natural

    Plays like a dream ans sounds incredible. You just can't match that vintage Gibson tone..


    '61 Goya (Hagstrom) Model 90 P46 Deluxe (1 of 177 ever made)






    This guitar is unlike any i've ever seen or owned. Has dual pick-ups BEFORE humbuckers were invented. It's a hollow-body and has a small resonator chamber for acoustic play. The pick-guard is raised and suspended by little relief springs. The neck is pearloid mahogany with stainless frets inlayed into an acrylic, scalloped, fret-board. Plays silky smooth with low action and the scalloped neck makes travel up and down like butter. Sounds amazing through tube amps. I could go on for days...this thing is incredibly rare and unique. I love it.

          I like woodworking and thought about making a electric guitar as a supposed a acoustic. I would think its easier but I have no clue. How did you make it? got a diy you followed?

            Hah no D.I.Y. for that one. I will say I didn't build the neck, just glued it into the body (no bolt-on's for me) Maybe, just maybe I may make another one with different specs this year to commemorate that one's 10 year anniversary.

                  Damn, guys. I wish I had that kind of money to spend. I need an electric/tube-amp.

                  Here are my babies, a Takamine GS330S and a Fender Mexi-Jazz:




                  And I'll post this one for kicks. The sunlight was hitting it just right one morning.

                    I have a pre-lawsuit 1975 Ibanez Les Paul. Almost anyone who's played them thinks their built better then the original Gibsons




                    Got a couple ther beaters like a Yamaha Se-250 with a floating bridge I bought for $40. Put a Dimarzio Satriani bridge pickup in it and sounds fatntastic

                    Also have an OLP JP6 rip off....tuners were F'd when I bought and installed schaller locking tuners. Also has dimarzio pickup set installed and graph tech carbon string saddles. Floating bridge is blocked cuz it does not work.

                        Favorite one was the Iceman, sold it and the Washburn to my brother, along with all my other stuff (Crate halfstack, pedals, etc, etc)

                        Still have the shitty acoustic and the purple Ibanez, although I don't have an amp anymore to play. I pulled them out the other day to dick with and it was fun, just no time anymore.

                        Wanna see if I can get that Iceman back.

                          Me gusta. I really like the Iceman, been tempted to order a lefty body to swap parts from my Ibanez onto.

                            Love Icemen. The neck on this one wasn't curves right. It was more like a ( than a proper curve, so playing closer to the body didn't really work. :/

                            The RG is amazing though. Wizard neck. Doesn't look great, but there is a reason I held on to it.

                              Like my RG as well for the same reasons but the pickups are absolute shit. I need to finish wiring up the new ones. Haven't been playing much these days.
