Ibanez

This was originally a 370S in matte grey that I scored on Ebay.  I immediately sent it out to California for paintwork and swapped the pickups with stock Ibanez.  The headstock has my initials on it in the Jem font.

Second guitar is a nearly completed project, the only left-handed 540pii in existence.  The neck is off of a right-handed 1988 RG770 and the body is a custom creation.  Pickups are stock Ibanez V2/S1 and trem system is original Ibanez Edge.

Third guitar is a 1990 RG550 re-necked with a 1987 right-handed RG550 maple neck.  Guitar was resprayed from basic black to arctic white and a finish applied to the neck for a vintage look.  All hardware is original equipment.

This is a platinum series Class Axe-era Warlock in pearl white, purchased from Ed Roman on a partial trade of my original Kramer 210.  Quite simply, this guitar is amazing in every way.  I have the trem blocked and am using it as a hard tail, but everything else is stock.

Ok, this is a little more custom.  This was originally a beak neck Kramer Baretta in black.  I had the guitar re-finished in holoflash, added a NOS American claw neck and swapped the JB with a custom wound JB from the Duncan factory.  The guitar plays amazing, but I am not sure if the neck profile is for me.

Fender/Squier and Gibson/Epiphone

First up is a Pro Tone Series Stratocaster outfitted with gold Lace Sensor Pickups.  This guitar has seen some heavy playing time, as evidenced on the fretboard.

Second guitar is an Epiphone Les Paul Standard in Cherry Sunburst.  I never really cared for the guitar until I swapped out the stock pickups for a Seymour Duncan '59 in the bridge and a Seymour Duncan Jazz in the neck.  That, and a good setup was all it took to make an amazing guitar.  I prefer it to many Gibson Les Paul models that I have played.
