Glad you're liking the Jazz! On the matching issue, I guess that's where people need different things. Personally, I love the versatility of having a neck pickup that can do cleans and has good articulation and sparkle. So I don't really worry to much about it needing to "match" the JB. Not...

The other thing is that we have never lived in an age like now, where guitar manufacturing has become reliable and high quality on a mass scale and the science is more or less nailed down. So if you're an actual guitar player and not a collector, you can get a great guitar for half of what your...

Yeah, I have zero interest in spending (too much) money on a Gibson Les Paul, when ESP LTD and Schecter give me better bang for my buck in the single-cut modern realm.

Understandable. If you do decide to drop some money, I think you will like the Jazz, especially in a Les Paul and paired with the JB. To me, it's a match made in heaven.

I feel like the Jazz is an easy and obvious choice, but I seem to remember that you aren't a Jazz fan. Sentient maybe?

Love that red.

The LTD EC-1000 with Black Winters is seeing a lot of use lately, in large part because I keep it either in C# or D and the new Megadeth album has made me want to learn some tunes in D standard. Good opportunity to try to get closer on some contemporary Exodus rhythm too. Working on my...

I have no skills to build anything. :ROFLMAO: And as mentioned, I own 24.75 guitars and they're great. I own 25.5 guitars too and they are also great. But I would very much like to own a Les Paul shape with a 25.5 scale and those seem to be rarer than hen's teeth...

I like and own a number of 24.75 scale guitars. But I find it very odd that guitar manufacturers invariably assume that wanting to own a single-cut guitar means you must want the Gibson scale length too...

My signature guitar would probably just be an upgraded version of my LTD EC-1000, which has a set of Black Winters in 'em. So I guess an ESP (no LTD) to start? Upgrades: - Straplocks - Luminlay side dots - Stainless steel frets - Forearm scoop - Bigger belly cut - Bevelling on the horn - 25.5"...

Locking all the way. Whatever tuning stability gains exist from standard tuners are offset, to me, by the hassle of restringing a guitar with them.

New guitar rack came on Friday, put it together so I can finally keep this guy out, not in his gig bag. More incentive to pick up and play the Artcore, particularly now that it's got a pair of '59s in and 11-50 chromes. I want to work on jazz comping and maybe keep working on some Laufey songs...

I believe it was called trans blue when I bought it. I love the finish too. Probably the prettiest finish in my collection.

59 out, Jazz in, for a classic JB-Jazz combo. Gonna play this guy hard tomorrow night!

Stop making me want to spend money I don't have on a BW Rails, dammit!
