Wanted to use my first post to share my HNGD!

A new guitar joins the family! Got a great deal on a gorgeous 2013 R8!!!

I was all set to buy a 2019 Traditional, but for only a little bit extra I landed this 2013 LP 58 VOS!!!

Plays wonderfully. Sounds great. Love the neck. Love the heft (though it doesnt feel so heavy to me). Im going through a huge Cream phase at the moment so I am in heaven.

Guitar is in just about mint condition. Some bleeding into the binding but just makes it sexier to me. Love the red in the Bourbon.

Here are the photos:

    Sweet, I'm growing to like the darker bursts and cherries more than the iced teas and dirty lemons.

    I agree. And this one looks different every time I look at it. But especially digging the dark reds in the burst.

  • Happy NGD!

    That's a great LP - a real rocker, and I would recognise it anywhere (I bought it new from Jeff @ World Guitars 5 years ago this very month).

    Enjoy . . .

    Wow! You must have a great eye! I am delighted with the guitar. I’d love to hear more about the history of it! It’s clearly been looked after.

    As a mate of Powerslave's, I've played that guitar too  ;)

    Have fun with it!

    Nice guitar!  I've got a CR8 in the same colour, and oddly enough it also has very tarnished/rusty looking tailpiece studs, which they don't always do on the VOS models.

    Glad to see this guitar has a bit of a history on here! I will look after it indeed! Played some Cream and Thin Lizzy on it this evening. We are quickly getting used to each other!
