I have some pictures of the neck now uploaded. You will see what I was talking about with the almost tiger stripe on it. Never seen this before.
No problem putting on the 60th thread. I have not got around to all of them yet
I love mine too and concur. I don't have anything more specific to ask, just thought it would be nice to have another owner confirm what I keep yakking about. :-) I felt mine was the equal of the american built Highway Ones in fit and finish, and I liked the sound better than the H1. The H1 was darker sounding, and this one was a warm, vintagey bright sound to my ears. I bought mine from a working musician, and it had been set up like yours, trem screwed down. I have not reversed that and like it like that so far. I do not use a t-bar much in my playing yet. Anyway, thanks for chiming in! If you don't mind, I may cut and paste this discussion over to the 60th thread too.

Welcome!
Any friend of Spud is...
hmm, maybe I shouldn't go there.
We forgive you for the Spud connection.
So a great white north reference would mean another Canuck, eh?
Plenty of y'all here. Brr.
Should be back up in the 70's F this weekend where I'm at.
Looks like a nice batch of gear, you realize we'll need to see pics.

Welcome to TheFret, Zman! Some VERY nice gear you've got there! : I have an Epi Elitist LP, too, but mine's a Standard. How do you like that guitar vs. your Gibson LP?
I like your list of influences, too. Many of the same players I count among my own favorites. Look forward to hearing more from you here....
