Spooky hun? So does that mean I SHOULD sell it for 914 parts or I SHOULD NOT sell it because it is a 914? Good thing my Strat sn ends in MX-5!!

I've been thru to many guitars looking for "the one". My inventory is down to about 6 or so- a Reverned w/P-90's, a hot rodded Epiphone DOT, martin 6 string and ovation 12 string, and an old, '61 (same year as me!) Gretsch archtop I'm restoring. The search continues for "the one" bass. If you love it, keep it. Sell the strat. MX-5 is voodoo.

I wish I had the dough, I love Les Pauls, a buddy had a '75 Custom that just flat ruled! I loved playing that guitar!

I would not change Gibson humbuckers for the SDs... I love my screamin' demon and full shred in my Charvel, but the gibson would be untouched

If I ever come back to playing alot, that will be my axe of choice! Or a gretch hollow body...

stoya, stoya, stoya Group: Benefactors Posts: 8,797 Joined: 6-June 03 From: Wylie, TX Member No.: 792 Region Association: Southwest Region	the gretch is very nice... experiencing Reverenc Horton Heat live made me want a Gretch... long enough to see the price tag anyway... see, I'm the opposite, I don't care for the soap bar pickups... that may just be me though... and honestly, I'd probably find an SG before a Paul for myself... almost same tone, but a lot easier on the body... the paul is a whip, but great tone... SG would be better for me, not like I even play that often anyway
