I love this guitar but the sound is a little muddy. When I get the time I'll try some mods. Normally I'd start with the wiring but working on semi-hollowbodies is a pain so I'll probably wait until I can afford to do the pickups and wiring all at once. There's lots of great tutorials on modding this guitar.

Hahah, yep he's a pretty tough rock n roll bunny. And yeah, the versatility and rareness (they're not even available here in Dubai) are great.

My Epi LP Special . First guitar was an Epi SG, but can't find any pics.. literally played it until it fell apart. My wife bought this one for me a couple years ago and its the only guitar I prefer over my Tele. THe P90s sound great, no plans for mods with this one.

Man, each time I see that Bird on Fire, I cringe. Blwahhh ... what a chunk of nice wood and precious harware. Do you really play that thing ?

Oh yeah by the way. Each time I see it, I also wonder how much it weight. Looks like a 12 pounder. Looks like it needs wheels or something.

It's excellent for lead guitar; cuts right through the mix. I was surprise that it doesn't weigh that much! it's not that thick, i had a Tele made from Pine that weighed more
