That looks like an SL5 to me. Just got it from eBay or had it a while?
Just got it from e-bay last week.

That's clever, how do you get them to stick to the wall?

Love the colour of that Les Paul by the way.
Thanks, don't know why the pic posted like that.

There's been a couple go recently that I was watching, they look amazing and from what I've heard online sound really good.

So after a mad guitar buying year last year, I am cutting down to one a year. Therefore I'm going to have to make it count...

Any guesses on what I am picking up tomorrow?

Just bought a Yamaha Revstar RS820 like this one - I can't get on with my Les Paul but wanted something with two HB's and no frills and this ticked the box. It's a really great guitar, especially now a set of 10's are on it's and much more me than the LP.

I really like the look of these, no where local sells them though..

Don, I love your new guitar days. That JS is a sexy mother fker. Do you have any video of you playing? I imagine you must be a dab hand?

No, and no.

Used to play OK, but then rugby, basketball and MMA injuries caused arthritis. Throw in nerve damage from a shoulder injury....

I just sit and noodle now. They are all mounted on walls throughout the house, Mrs Don1 thinks of them as art. I try to buy well, where I shouldn't lose much money if I did sell them.

This one for example is actually a fake. Well it's a homage. It's a real Ibanez JS1000, but they didn't do any chrome 1000's, except for Joe. It's properly nickel plated, very light, plays well (unlike the JS2's and 10th anniversaries apparently). But as it was the price of a normal good condition used 1000, it was a no brainer. smile

Like the look of the tuners on my Gibson Les Paul so done this little mod to my Epiphone. They are still grover tuners just added the tulips.

Looks like the intonation on the white one might need checking, the 'G' bridge piece might have slipped forward.

My favourite guitar of all time. Just didn't suit me for playing (that neck being so heavy and so far over there).

Still looks gorgeous; I should get one just to hang on the wall.

Yes, it's a work of art.

I could just sit and stare at it all day.

I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder but I think that's hideous.
Stat, Tele, LP. 335 or a PRS for me (on looks only and in my not very humble opinion).
