mgrmatt Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 After a long search I was able to finally get a Riviera, it's a 06 MIK Peerless Plant. After a little tweaking and a new set of strings she plays like a dream! Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Dean Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Great looking guitar. I'm looking into getting one as well. How are the necks on these compared to the Dots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgrmatt Posted March 7, 2009 Author Share Posted March 7, 2009 Thanks guys! BD, The neck is not as thick as a DOT, it's very similar to a Casino just with better fret acess. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie brown Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Yeah...Rivieras! Great! Congratulations! I love mine! How do you like the "Mini-humbuckers?" Or, have you played it at sufficient volume to be able to tell, yet? CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcwillow777 Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Congrats, very nice. <----- I love minis, great sounding pickups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgrmatt Posted March 7, 2009 Author Share Posted March 7, 2009 Yeah CB I've been able to test it at volume a bit. This is my first venture with mini-humbucker, So far the clarity and definition I get at high volume is cool. It's also the first guitar that I've strung with a frequensator tailpiece, that was a little different. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgrasso Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Beautiful, simply beautiful. They should start to reissue these in different finishes. The P-93 was nice, but these are close to the originals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
