I do like the Tele. That's my next GAS purchase. Had a white MIM a long time ago. Lost it.

So I've been lusting for another Gibson to add to my stable. I couldn't decide between a Les Paul or an SG.
A used 2018 SG Special with mini humbuckers and natural satin finish popped up on a guitar shop's website that I check on a regular basis, and I jumped on it right away. It got delivered today, and I've been playing it for hours. The guitar was hardly played by the previous owner. This thing is a tone beast. The bridge position sounds good, the middle position sounds better, and the neck position sounds great! The only negative thing I can point out is that the fret edges could use some work to smooth them out. But at the price I paid I won't complain too much. This is my first SG and I'm already looking to add another one. |

Some upgrading went on. Swapped out the black Ovation for a newer one. (gave it away to a guy who lost his guitars in a house fire). It's not as slim and I'm not happy with it. Loved my black one.
I replaced the pups on the Les Paul with Seymour Duncan P-Rails, including Triple Shots. The strap is Van Gogh's Starry Night. It's neat. Last edited by eDave; 03-02-2021 at 11:50 PM.. |

I sold some guitars I acquired in a moving sale and bought a few since I posted here last. I acquired a new Gibson SG Special in Vintage Cherry that I truly love. I got it when they were closing them out because it was the undesirable automatic tuners. They are a pain in the ass and I plan to change them out but just haven't.
Seagull Mariner Dreadnaut which I like ok also. Its nothing fancy but sounds good to my ears. I picked up 2 Supro's one for me and one for my brother the Americana series reissue. when I was a kid in 1968 me and my brother received Airline Guitars and a practice amp Airline. Dad bought everything at Monkey Wards mostly and Sears. Valco sold Supro guitars under the Airline name at Ward's. So I got a Belmont Ozark single pickup in Red in the Americana series my original was yellow. My brother got a white like his original Supro Holiday Americana series. They sound pretty nice but mostly a good memory for sentimental value. Wish Id hung on to that old guitar they get a pretty good price for the right buyer.

Eastwood has recreated the old Airline (Monkey Wards) brand that's kinda nice. I wonder if they will do the amps though I don't know who made the Airline branded old tube amps.

Looking through google I think this is the little practice amp we had in 68.

Bowie with his 61 Supro Dual Tone.
Supro reissued a David Bowie Dual Tone limited addition. I have seen it discounted to 499 as it was going for a grand. It's a good looking guitar that would look good on a wall. Probably doesn't play like the original.
