Thinning The Guitar Herd
Looks like I’ve sold one my guitars… my trusty Jackson is currently on extended test-drive with a friend who is delighted with it. This guitar is a classic shred machine with reverse pointy headstock, Duncan humbuckers and a Floyd Rose trem tailpiece / locking nut. I originally purchased the guitar for use in Vital Idol, the Billy Idol tribute in which I played. It was perfect for that purpose and delivered beautifully on those awesome Steve Stevens tones.
I knew I’d eventually sell this one since it’s really not something I continue to use on a daily basis. A friend of mine has been very interested in the guitar since I first mentioned I might let it go. Based on his feedback it appears he’s planning to buy it. I’m always happy to see musical equipment get into the hand of people who are truly excited to have it, and there is something freeing about liquidating surplus stuff. I’m making him a deal on it, mostly because he’s a good guy and also because I can see he’s going to put it to great use. Fly! Be free! Rock on!
