I'm the same way, but I am trying to be better ..which is why I enjoy this ....a lot, really could use a refret.

My OG #1. Lone survivor of the PRS hostile takeover. The neck is just a dream and it sounds so good. Putting the pickups out of phase makes for a really cool brootz sound and on cleans makes it sound almost tele like (sort of)

Haven't shown this one yet. Nothing special, on its face. Totally stock, other than the replacement bridge piece, due to excessive corrosion.
Purchased in Italy, for 300 US ..threw in a gigbag, because I still had to walk around with it on my back ...all day. I was in the service, and it spoke to me. Actually was in a couple heavy bands where I played this ...out. it rips....and embarrasses nay sayers. You won't find many in the US with this headstock.
Epiphone es-335..... actual model number.....this was 1997 or 1998....so I don't remember too many of those , but I could be wrong.

Nice. I dig the slightly older Epi's. I always wanted one of those Sheratons from the early 90's.

Me too ...which is why this surprised me. I didn't know that they made an es 335 as an Epiphone back then ...must have been an overseas market only thing, which is why I grabbed it.
Edit - guess I was wrong ..but i don't remember them ...damn weed
Not really sure of the guitars actual age ...as guitars sat for awhile over there.

My main Eb standard guitar. Just recorded some tracks for a session that needed the tuning.

Sweet! I had an RG750 that was my main axe in the early 1990s. It was Black and I put Pink Dimarzios in it.

Ran it through its paces at rehearsal last night and it kicked ass. Today it ripped through a Ceriatone 2204 and the same results.

Well to be fair, a good bit of that deep fretboard wear was before my acquisition. But I played it for about 6 yrs. with the stock vintage frets which were tiny -- yet it still played great. I did a refret with Dunlop 6000s, but I was careful not to level the rosewood too much as I liked the character and feel. It's a 7.25 radius.I just received a message from your fret board.

I know! With the jumbo frets you can't feel those crevices anyways, unless you just dig in a lot.
