I did a deal last week with a chap leaving the country:

As-new 65 Jazzmaster
2011 Gibson LP Jr
Rickenbacker 330


Not a huge fan of the Ric so will be selling it on soon, anyone got an idea of its value?

Cheers. Yes, the jazzy was the one guitar I was really interested in but he was needing rid of a big collection of guitars so I took the LP and the Ric because he was desperate! Sold the LP to a mate already and if I can get a grand for the Ric I'll have paid about 200 for the Fender.

Just picked up a Big Tex '55 white guard. Light weight ash body, thin hand rubbed nitro finish, soft V neck, very resonant with a nice translucent finish. Lollar pickups.

The neck has lovely relicing on the back which makes it feel perfectly broken in.

I'll get some of mine up over the weekend hopefully.
Currently the collective is

Fender Eric Johnson Strat - Maple neck version, sunburst
Ibanez Jem 7VW
Ibanez Jem BSB in great condition for it's age
Ibanez Euphora EP10 Acoustic
Ibanez JS1000 BSB
Dean 91E - had this for 20 odd years

Plus a few more that are out on loan (cheaper guitars), but the 6 listed above are my main play things.
Hopefully i'll be adding a Gilmour Strat to the collective soon - wifey might make me get rid of one to make way though (i did have to have a sale when she counted up and i had 16 guitars a couple of years ago). If i do i think the Jem BSB will making way!

After looking at your post at about 4pm, I was googling 80s Ibanez models. I keep wanting something very 80s, an 87 RG550, in a suitably Paul Gilbert-esque 'don't look directly at it without goggles' colour scheme, Desert yellow or shocking pink. Either that or an 87 Charvel Model 2, would like a model 6, but the active pickups put me off a little, shame the model 5 lacks shark fins...

Got myself a couple of luxxtones recently, have to say absolutely amazing guitar. Always been a fan of the Fender custom shop, Floyd strat kind of thing , and indeed collected a few. Luxxtone have moved it on a mile, necks are smooth & beautifully oiled, attention to detail is spot on, love the dark & silver Floyd bits etc and the arcane pick ups are great...they really are doing amazing guitars over at luxxtone, if you get chance check one out

Ibanez did some limited editions last year for the anniversary of the Rg and S models. All the classic 80's colors were in there... must be a few still floating around

Glad u like it mate. The neck was just a bit too much of a baseball bat for me. Sounded awesome through my Jackson Newcastle 30 head and combo though.
Ramsay liked it as well. Here it is in the collection...

Yeah seen those, Ill have to check them out properly. Shame the Jackson soloist 30th anniversary came with EMGs rather than a high output passive like the old j90s in the classics.

Out interest do you use the extra 6frets often, or just very rarely?

Nice one Stratman! Small world.

I love the chunky neck, similar feel to my '59 VOS.

Lovely collection, loving the Huber!
