Clanky44 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 My wife just ordered a new Nick Valensi Riviera P-94 from Sweetwater. She currently has a Squier Strat and an acoustic Ibanez, but has really been enjoying my new Casino and decided to try out a few hollow and semi-hollow bodies for herself. Ended up taking a shine to the Riviera..... I'll let her introduce herself (with mandatory pics) once she gets her Epi. ... I wonder if she'll let me play it?!?

Gordy01 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 It would be great to have a spouse who could play guitar. Of course then the price of everything would double! Â I really hope she enjoys her new guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueman335 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Cool. I wish my wife played guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrw1960 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 My lady has a beautiful singing voice. I've tried to get her to learn Guitar. She says the metal strings hurts her little fingers. So, I thought about getting her a Classical nylon string guitar. No go. I figured it would boost my GAS attacks and I could benefit by getting more guitars. No such luck.

Clanky44 Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 .... OK,... this has to be the definition of torture,.... :blink: ...the fed-ex man just arrived, and I now have a Sweetwater box lying in front of me with one brand new NV Riviera P94. Problem is, I can't touch it!,.... it's not mine. .... I feel like a fat kid in a candy store with his hands tied behind his back... Â This is her first Epi, I'm really excited for her.

mrw1960 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Looks like your dog is keeping watch over it until she gets home. We will be waiting anxiously to see what she (The Guitar) looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent photos... Â Thanks for the kind comments!!,.... photos were tricky, camera couldn't get the colour right, I had to correct it with a bit of post processing. The Riviera is a very rich clear orange, (called antique natural) witch really pops with the black details and P94 pup covers. We're currently using a VOX VT80+, but do plan to upgrade at some point to a VOX AC15HW1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
