epiphone rosso corsa pre NGD

nutbox

Hi there,
Just had to tell someone other than the misses,but I have managed to persuade the misses to let me buy a new guitar.
So I have just ordered myself a slash epiphone rosso corsa and I am so excited I feel like a child again.
I shall get some pics when it turns up.
Cheers dazz

Congrats on convincing the misses and here's a pre well done on some gas.

Anytime a better half can be convinced into the buying of a guitar gets a wow in my book!

I have learned to say "what new guitar, oh this one i have had it for ages" . It's what she tells me when she has new boots

If the Epiphone version is anything as good as the Gibson then you're in for a treat.

So much nicer than most "new" Gibson models in both playability, feel and tone!

Now if I had the sheets, that's the guitar I would buy without a moment's hesitation (after the Joe Perry Boneyard and a VOS 58LP)

Alright so it's the best "modern" LP out there at the moment... Haha

Wrong the vermillion is because ummm I have one and of course it's identical to the rosso corsa in all but colour

I bottled out of buying a second hand vermillion at £1600. Should have pulled the trigger

The colour and logo are a love them or hate them thing for most but the guitar itself is brilliant, every one I've played (vermilion or rosso corsa) have been flawless and a fantastic example of what I think a les Paul should be. Best £1600 I've ever spent.

Ahhh but the red of the Rosso is lush. I've always liked sorta deep red guitars. But I would put the red finish of the Sammy Hagar red rocker LP above the Rosso. If the Chickenfoot thing on the head of the RR wasn't so big man I would've bought 50 of them!

I find it is easier to seek forgiveness than permission. I shall put this to the test in a few days when my new superstrat arrives.
