  • New Guitar Day......

    Well.....since I got my RR1 last December, my other guitars just don't seem to inspire me as much as it does, so I figured I might as well get another one.....I'd like to get some better pics, but she's hard to photograph and we haven't seen the sun here in about a month, so this is what i got......The finish is outstanding, it's true that you have to see it in person, so many shades of gold/blue/green/brown/etc/etc...Plays great, haven't given it a proper christening yet but it feels pretty comfy. Oddly even though it's only 600 apart from my other RR1's S/N the neck feels just a little bit thicker on the new one.....maybe it's just me.....anyways, on with the pics......















    I'm not into hell.........I just dig the soundtrack.........

      That guitar reconfirms how amazing Acapulco Gold is.

              that is a very unique color.

              i know the feeling. despite loving my trio of axes....sometimes i crave something a little different, or additional to make me crave play time. something new always makes you feel better and refreshed.

              enjoy that one!!

                  nothing warms the blood like new meat...

                  i was thinking of getting that phil collen model, but i'm deathly allergic a to bolt-on neck for my 6-strings. i love my model 2b bass, but that's probably just because i was too broke as a kid to get the model 6b. if i could go back though...

                      Thanks guys....I just got through with it and it's awesome, plays and sounds like an RR1 should....I must admit, I had a really hard time choosing between this and one in Absinthe Frost. I definitely made the right choice, because as I was looking at the neck as I was playing it looked like A/F, until I looked down at the body or up at the headstock and saw gold. It can be somewhat of a distraction when you keep forgetting what colour your guitar is while you're playing it........

                      Oh, make no mistake about it, there is not a guitar on this planet that could take the place of my Lightning Sky.......That's my baby..........

                        Good color choice

                        I'm going to try some more to capture the beauty of acapulco gold myself. Cameras have a hard time capturing the full range of tone and color and the metallic is over emphasized.
