After a six month stretch in the pawn shop jail, I got my old battle axe Gibson S1 out just yesturday. I didn't know how much I missed playing that guitar until I picked her up again. She needs some work (mostly wireing and new pots) but I have had her since I was 16 yrs old. Thats over 17 years. The finish is chiped, the frets need work, there is a kluson tuner on the big E and the rest are grovers, there is an open hole where a volume knob used to be (thanks to the genius who swapped out the pups for me) there is a Dean Markley sticker over the hole where there once was a middle pick up, the white paint has turned cue ball yellow and there is a crack at the cut away where it was dropped hard. But I would not sell her for any amount of money anyone in their right mind would pay.. Pictures are on the way. ;D

Me and that guitar have made quite a few together. She is the only one of my guitars that I know well enough to name. Her name is "Ol Girl". The other two have names but not really. I call my quilt top "Blue" because its blue and my Special II "Red" because its wine red. Thats what I will call them until they tell me their real names. ;D |
