Just sayin'.
I
picked up my old Epi Les Paul yesterday, dusted it off after a long period of neglect, and plugged it in to my Princeton Reverb.
It continues to play well and sound good, which is frustrating, because it was my first ever guitar 14 years ago and frankly I'm a bit bored of it existing and want an excuse to dislike it.
Obviously I can't get rid of it because a) it's an Epiphone Les Paul Studio from 14 years ago and as such is worth as much as a cold tray of chips and b) it's my first guitar and it would be mean and sort of ungrateful to sell it.
Anyway, the conflicting facts of it sounding good and me being sick of the sight of it mean I'm gassing for something sort-of-a-bit-the-same-but-different-and-better. I'm sure we've all been there.
And for me, the one that keeps bubbling to the surface is a really good Yamaha semi-hollow guitar, because I haven't got a semi-hollow guitar and therefore it's definitely justifiable. And they still only make one of them, so that's what I'm gassing for.
And there was me thinking I was GAS-free.

go for it.
although you might consider the Tokai ES-335-alikes
Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
Top quality craftsmanship from Yamaha too... Every one you pick up will be spot on.
I have an SG2000 and it's great - more than once I've thought about getting a semi-hollow to keep it company...
