:lol:

I like that Taylor! The two that I posted are THE two guitars that I must own someday. Actually, add an electric acoustic, and those would be the only guitars I'd ever want and/or need. OK, maybe a Gibson LP, but my Epi LP does what I need in that department (plus I'll never sell it) so I'll probably never own one.

There is a Taylor like that down the street; I haven't had the guts to touch it yet...

I am going to get that Tele for myself, too. Is that finish the most beautiful thing ever??? :) :) :) :) :) Next year sometime, once the GF stops telling me I have enough guitars already!

I am getting a G&L Tribute to tide me over in the meantime. I was going to get the same finish on it (also gorgeous), but I am getting the 3-tone sunburst instead, which is very nice, too. No complaints. I get $50 off because everyone who has bought the model off my friend gets the natural gloss--it's beautiful, and they say the burst "looks too western." I don't get it, either. :?

Here's a pic, except mine has black pickups.

I want an LP, too. I have an SX copy to beat up on, but it isn't the same.

has to be the white falcon for me.Its a work of art.As I'll never afford one my second choice would be the SRV sig Strat.Maybe if I move to the U.S. i could afford to buy one or two.

this weekend i will probably replace my epiphone g-400 with a gibby '61 reissue.

i can really afford it, but at a bargain price, i cant really afford not to, either.

btw, can anyone tell me if this is a 61 or 62 reissue? its an '85, so i think it is a '62 RI from what i can tell from http://www.everythingsg.com .

Anyone here know for a fact the difference? some people say that the neck is thinner, and some say thicker, and i cant find a positive answer.
help?

And the guy says the gibson case is included. the case in the picture is not a gibby case, is it?

EDIT: picture;D

:D Yeah, it is my money, but she has already bought me one guitar for no other reason than she digs me, and she is saving for her half of the cruise and going without and I went out and put money down on a $1500 guitar...she got a little miffed. :oops:

Nice guitar. Who makes it?

If you're talking bout the blue one geoo posted, it's made by Schecter guitars. Some of the best guitars for the money IMHO... 8)

Geoo. Git-R-Done. You'll love it. I did. (I posted this down in coffee shop.) I went a little less deluxe but yours got me started. The one I got was in stock. I'm so spoiled. :roll:

Here's what I got.

Wow! Those Schecters are beautiful! I like this one:

They are pretty inexpensive, too. If they have them in my area, I'm gonna session one and see what it's like. :D

I dont normally promote Guitar Center, cause I dont like the people that work at the one in my area, but they carry Schecter if you have one near you then you could try it out there.

If that is the color of your Schecter, TF, that is beautiful. :shock: My strat looks a lot like the picture of yours but mine has a rosewood fretboard.

Thank you

That's the color Bish. She's stunning. Actually, I think mine is a hair darker than the pic. Of course that could be the light, or lack of in here.

Either way I love her. Just don't tell the strat. ;) I like the dark cherry you got too. Hmm... I'm GASsing again. :D
