This is the last guitar I got in 2023z it plays and sounds incredible, ebony board, my favorite, and the only thing I don’t like is the gold flake lines on fretboard, but for the playability and tone, it’s worth it.

Couldn’t find a pic of my guitar in my phone, so used ibanez j custom page pic.

I'll get some more. I need to take it apart again so that I can rewire the tone knob to work on the bridge pick up.

These were quick pics when I first got it and adjusted the truss rod. 1-piece alder body. I think Honduran rosewood board and Indian rosewood back. Compound radius board with Jescar FW55090 stainless frets. Supposedly lacquer finish but I'm not sure.

Bought this in September. 1952 Les Paul with all original finish, no repairs, original electronics. Had p90’s, of course. Even has the OG 50’s lifton case. The trapeze was removed and a tune o matic/ stoptail already added when I got it. You can see the lighter gold circles around the ends of the ABR-1 where the trapeze used to rest on the body.

I also picked up an original 1958 neck PAF (8k) and an original 1959 double white bridge PAF (8.7k) . I sent the guitar to Jim at Jam City guitars. He reset the neck angle to the correct 4 degrees and routed it for humbuckers. So now it’s a 1957 conversion. It actually ships back to me this week.

Contrary to popular belief, the neck on it is not a baseball bat. It’s super easy to play and is smaller than my Historic Makeovers R9 neck. It’s around 8lb 4oz.

Got this one maybe a month ago, it´s a Kramer mutt made out of a Sambora body with a regular American neck. The Floyd seems to predate both the neck and body by a few years, and the bridge pickup is a Duncan Distortion. Pretty cool for $500, even if it needed a bit of work.

It's an Ibanez Ergodyne EDA-905F - 5-string, fretless, silver, from around 2000. Has one magnetic pickup, and Fishman piezo bridge that can be blended, should get the upright bass sound with the piezos.


I haven't had a fretless in several years, last was a 4-string, and I still have a couple of fretted 4-strings.

Edit: I've been thinking about a fretless for awhile, not finding anything I liked at a price I liked, until now.

This is it, should ship Tuesday:

I had the four string version of these for years (eda-900 w/frets). Same color/body too with cosmo black chrome hardware. Each saddle has an individual piezo that you can fine tune from the back. Very comfortable and decent instrument with a lot of tone options. It's now been living it's life as a tool in my daughter's band the past few years.

Wow, lots of beautiful and sweet guitars everyone! Y'all have decent taste. Some of your tastes are so bad though that you should just get rid of them and sell them to me :ROFLMAO: .

Here's my last personal addition in 2023, or at least I think it was...

I love the shape and neck of a Wolfgang but I absolutely cannot stand the super small frets. I just can’t get used to them. I’d own one if I could refret one with jumbo stainless.
