Now that we have a traditional club, I thought it should only be fair that the customs get to shine! Here is my 1993 Wine Red Custom. My dad bought me this guitar last week as a present for graduating college. His friend from work sold it to him for $1500. What a surprise! This is my first American made guitar and it plays and sounds like a dream!

Nooo!!

If anything, a Vintage Amber...
The whole point of a different colour is for it to stand out!

Thanks, but no way bruhta. That is a mighty fine looking wine red Custom, and the fact that your father purchased it for you as a graduation gift gives it a special, personal meaning. I know guitars can be viewed as "tools," but everytime you play that LP Custom you will think of your father.

That is very true and I will play and love this guitar until I can pass it down to my kids. Thanks for the kind words.
