First off, New Used Guitar Day: Ibanez RG321MH in 'Weathered Black'. Mahogony body, maple neck (fairly thick for a Wizard). Upgraded by previous owner with Grover Locking Tuners, CTS Pots, Switchcraft Jack, No-name pickups, and two series/parallel mini-switches.
I bought for the br00talz and to avoid taking nice guitars to university. Some of you may remember I was asking about new pickups but the no-name overwound PAFs work surprisingly well (and look perfect with the finish), and also about changing the switches to 3 position series/parallel/splits, but once again the previous job is so good I don't really wan't to mess with it.
P.S. The colour is a matt black, but I had to lighten the photo bring out the textured finish
Secondly (Old Guitar Day) is my acoustic: very cheap second-hand Crafter FX550EQ, figured Bubinga top (makes it look worth more than it is), fibreglass/plastic composite bowl-back, mahogany neck, rosewood board, LR Baggs Piezo and onboard pre-amp.
Had this for about a year, but finally got decent pics.
And lastly, mods: My first guitar, a Yamaha Pacifica 012, not much visually different from last time I uploaded. Replaced stock bridge with a Wilkinson with a big steel block, replaced the single conductor JB/59 with four conductors and wired them to a push-pull. Also bought some locking machine-heads but found that the holes are only 8mm (while all tuners are 10mm) and the 'collars' are attached with 'teeth' so they'd be a ***** to remove and widen the holes.
