Alright, here's mine. I had a weak moment on the 'bay and bought the green one...for too much Im sure but I always liked that green for some reason. I put that Jackson in the bridge and it pretty much screams now[biggrin] but I still love and prefer the sound of the G-400. Who wouldnt?

Whoa Svet - you have some beautiful Epis there!

 

 

Thanks Driver' date=' I love my Epiphone's!! Well, I love all guitars in general and I have Gibson's, Fenders, Gretsch, PRS, Eastman, Martin et. al... I never understood how people get so tuned in to one type of guitar and shun the rest. For me, it's all good! Here is a shot of some of my Gibson's:

That's one sweet guitar! I've never seen one with the body shaping like that. [cool]

 

Thanks! I was working on it few months. I was inspired by few shapes: Axis-like neck (asymetrical)' date=' Soloist-like heel, Strat body cut and Beck's Esquire look [cool Just wanted to make it ultra-comfortable instead of carying two guitars. It succedeed.

RICOCHET - What was the reasoning behind changing the Bigsby? Couldn't you just reroute the strings over the roller bar of the original (B7, I think?). Plus, I see you've changed the bridge. What's that style called, and how do you like it - does it help keep it in tune better, or was it more for aesthetics?

 

Overall, I think it looks nice and clean, I like the chrome knobs and switch tip, no poker chip - just really too bad about the holes in the top from the old Bigsby. Let us know how the Lollars work out, and post a pic with the pickguard when it's on!
