Re: The Guitars you wished you never sold
Had a bunch of nice stuff down through the decades, but I miss that '59 LP Junior I sold early in the 80's. Had a baseball bat for a neck, tiny frets, and a huge honking midrange.aka Chris Pile, formerly of Six String Fever

Re: The Guitars you wished you never sold
To me modding guitars is like making a mandala. You make it, you learn from it, you move on. In my whole collection, I only have a handful of guitars that aren't on a constant rotation.You will never understand How it feels to live your life With no meaning or control And with nowhere left to go You are amazed that they exist And they burn so bright
Whilst you can only wonder why

Had a Gibson Howard Roberts III I sold to fix a ex's transmission. Now, the car, the guitar, and the girl are long gone (thankfully, in 2 of those cases).Administrator of the SDUGF

Re: The Guitars you wished you never sold
This makes me sad just thinking about it.
Gibson LP ‘59 re-issue that was number 8 of 10 that Tom Murphy built (yes built) to launch the historic series at NAMM in I think ‘92. I’ve NEVER seen one with a flame top as 3D as this was.
Ibanez Artist AR300 in Cherry Sunburst and super flamey.
Gibson DC Pro in trans red, super flamey, Ebony board with P90’s.
G&L Legacy special in blue burst with an Ebony board.

Re: The Guitars you wished you never sold
1980-ish Ibanez Artist 300 black with bare STP tailpiece (no leaf). Traded for a battered Marshall failing all the time that I traded for a Laney AOR working forever. Although the Laney was fun I should have kept the Artist as soon after getting the Laney I also got JCM900 / JCM800 that became my amps-to-go.

Re: The Guitars you wished you never sold
The ones stand out for me are:
Early 1990's Gibson Les Paul Studio
Early 1990's Gibson SG Junior
2009 Gibson SG Classic
Hamer EchoTone
Mid-80's Candy Apple Red Kramer Baretta
Early-80's Kramer Focus 2000 (also CAR)
If I could have any one of them back it would be the SG Classic.

Re: The Guitars you wished you never sold
I didn't sell this one, it wasn't mine. I did a repair on a 1958 Gibson Les Paul Special that sounded fabulous when I had finished and the owner refused to sell it to me. (Can't blame him)
I owned a 70s era Gibson Les Paul Custom that was rumored to once had belonged to Paul Kossoff who had given the guitar to someone who had rescued him from drowning. The previous owner had used black electricians tape to make diagonal stripes and ruined the top finish.
I had also traded off a 60s era Gibson ES345 guitar and a blonde Fender Super Reverb amp. Stupid young me.Last edited by Jeffblue; 09-16-2019, 08:35 PM.

Re: The Guitars you wished you never sold
I have three guitars that I've sold and are my life's regrets so far: a BC Rick NJ Neck-Thru series Warlock and Ibanez RG527R LTD, of which I found out after the sale that only 50 were ever made, and an Ibanez S670FM.
All had FR bridges, and at the time I thought I didn't want to deal with the system again.
10 years later, 4 out of my 11 axes have Floyds. That'll show me...Guitars:Gibson LP Trad ('57 Classics); Ibanez SEW761FM (TB-16/STK-S7 m&n); Charvel DK24 (TB10/SSL-6/A2Pn), DK22 (HRb/SSL-6 m&n), SoCal Style1 (Distortion set) & SoCal Style2 24 2PT (Fluence OCC); ESP LTD MH-1000HS (TB-14/Lil59n); Effects: Line 6 Helix Floor, Digitech Drop & FreqOut, ME EP-1L6,Shure GLXD16, Headrush MX5;
