Oooh! Me!!!
Here's an action shot of yours truly, with a really stupid expression, with my Gretsch Historic Series Streamliner. It's got the cats eye f-holes, and came routed for standard size humbuckers, so I tossed in a couple of Duncan Phat Cat P-90s, and she rips for everything from jazz to bone-crunching punk.  Yes. My bass player is wearing a Santa hat. This show was on December 20th.

My Epiphone Emperor Regent was a great deal I
think, dead mint 3 color sunburst with a good case for $500 cdn in 2005. Could use a better "Johnny Smith" style floating pup. Any suggestions? My only archtop, it does take a different right hand technique, but I just love it for chord work. LB |

This is a semi-hollow beast, a ES-347 with the first version of the dirty fingers HB pickups, Series 7's. This guitar is great for jazz, blues, rock, country, and fusion. It does scream, and I always get compliments on its sound. It has a coil-tap to put the guitar in single coil mode, and it increases its utility in different venues. The ebony neck only adds to the whole feel of the guitar.
  One may think of it as BB's Lucille with f-holes, and a similar TP-6 intonateable bridge. There are some Tom De Longe model Gibson ES guitars, which also sport a bridge Dirty Finger humbucker. This guitar was made in 1991, the LAST year of production. I got this one, new, in 1993. |

Yamaha SA50T
I have never been without an airfilled guitar and am the proud owner of a 1972 Yamaha SA50T; she was a Craigslist find after having to part with my Elitist Casino for financial reasons. Great build, very bright sound that easily pushes into a wonderful blues tone.
Dark (DARK) green, cupped F holes. The 25" scale makes .011s a comfy fit. As usual the Mrs. (who has sole control of our pictures) has yet to upload any of the pictures I have taken of the SA, here is teh same model in natural (mighty fine looker as well)

Howdy,
I'm using my 1980 ES-335 alot more these days, as my house has no "ground" (darn dimmer switches!) and it's my only HBer equipped guitar. She sounds great (SD '59s) and plays like butter. Eggman |
