Mid week instrument p0rn


HEY! I figured I would do a short entry tonight to keep my promise about consistent posting this week. I assure you I've waited until mid-week to drop something fresh due to the planning and plotting of some serious content for the coming weeks. Included in the planning is my first monthly gear project! I'll be unveiling the project on Friday, but I'll give you a hint tonight: It's one of the most ridiculous abortions to have survived being pulled from the warm womb of the nineteen eighties, and if it was a person, it would have teased hair, white high tops and a SERIOUS coke problem.

I have a "NGD" looming in the next few weeks, and I'm really uncontrollably excited about it. It's a Gibson VOS 1954 Les Paul Custom Reissue, and the past few months have been every bit the Wayne's World cliche' of driving to the store weekly, and having them remove it from the proverbial glass case (in this situation it's a room in back) for my conjugal visit.  It's definitely what I've always wanted from a Les Paul, and while not everyone's cup of tea, I'm a p-90 fanatic and find the p-90/alnico set up on 54 style customs to be immensely versatile. Drool with me, if you please, and check out this video of Phil X abusing one.

This is a SUPER clean vintage 54
a Norlin era 70's reissue
