midiman56 Posted May 28, 2011 Author Share Posted May 28, 2011 Sorry, Gord! I moved those pics into a different album on Photobucket, not stopping to think that it would screw up the post. I just fixed it so they should be back up! Thanks for letting me know ... By the way, how are you doing, my friend? Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midiman56 Posted May 28, 2011 Author Share Posted May 28, 2011 I don't think I could work at GC. It would be like a gambling addict working at a casino. ... or as my darling wife puts it, "Having an alcoholic working as a bartender!" (she's so cute!) Actually, being around them all the time has it's advantages, GAS-wise. There are many guitars that I would have wanted to jump on at first sight that I gradually got over after playing and being around them for a week or two. It's sort of like getting past the honeymoon without ever having said, "I do!". If, after a month or so you still want it, it's probably TRUE LOVE! I'm not saying tha GAS isn't strong and constant ... but you don't need to work at a guitar store for that! Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordy01 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Jimmy!! Saw the pics this morning. Very nice. I love woodgrain as well. That is a very light color walnut. Nice Grovers too. I keep saying that guitars are like girlfriends. "Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, there she was..." And thanks for asking, I'm doing pretty good. Been way too busy at work though.

bonzoboy Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Beautiful guitar Midiman and the first one that I've seen with a natural finish-they should produce more as that is just striking.I've heard the less than complimentary comments about Epi humbuckers but as far as I'm concerned that's an old wive's tale or an urban myth based on the way it might have been many years ago when quality control was somewhat sporadic.I have a 3 pup G-400 Custom and it just screams when I put it through my old JCM 800 2204 stack.The Gibson SG playing boyfriend of my daughter heard and played it and said that it was better than his in every way.BTW when I play the Epi through my Blues Jr. I can get some of the sweetest Barney Kessel like jazz tones from it so it is one very versatile guitar.
