    NGD: Silverburst Porn

    Posted this in the Les Paul thread but might as well make a proper post. Got a killer deal on this due to finish checking on the body (who cares?). It’s a made 2 measure from 2022 that’s mostly standard LPC specs but with a VOS Antique Silverburst finish, no pickguard (which I immediately...

    NGD: Impulse Gibson buy.

    So, never felt a hard urge to own an SG despite liking them, but loved them in TV Yellow. But up until last week the standards were only available in that finish via custom shop and I wasn’t willing to drop that kinda cash for an SG. But, couldn’t resist this one when they announced last week...

    NGD. ‘70s Gibson Content

    I’ve been sorta passively on the hunt for the perfect tobacco burst LPC for a very long time, and after letting a few slip by over the years I believe I’ve landed on the one. 1979 Les Paul Custom in absurdly immaculate condition. Nice, thin neck - feels nearly identical to my 4-knob Full...

    NGD Fender content.

    So, recently have gotten back into playing again after a few-year break and being burnt out, as well as losing most of my guitars/gear in a fire in 2019 (see the Random Pics Of Your Sixes post for more in-depth on that) and things did not feel right without a tele. Fender American Original 70s...

    NGD (sorta). Custom ESP content.

    Been waiting to post this for quite some time. Custom Phoenix II! Still don’t have it yet, but some photos courtesy of my friends at ESP USA and I don’t wanna wait. Copied and pasted from the custom club thread but not everyone looks at that, sooo.. - Sonic blue w/ matching...

    NGD. “Vintage” ESP content.

    Picked this up on reverb the other day. ESP 400 Series from the mid-80s in blonde, Seymour Duncan quarter pound set. Possibly upgraded to a modern bridge but could’ve been a made to order situation, seen quite a few 400 teles with modern bridges pop up. Hard to say with ESP shit back then. Not...

    NGDx2, tele content.

    Recently realized I had zero tele’s outside of a partscaster that needs a ton of work to get up and running again and decided to snag these two to remedy that. Fender Road Worn ‘50’s and Classic Series ‘72 Custom. The Road Worn I had owned before, but sold and have regretted ever since...

    NGD - LTD Sig content.

    LTD Sparrowhawk. Some quick photos. I’ve wanted one of these for a while but didn’t really like the military green finish, and heard last summer they were doing these this year, so I waited. Haven’t had much time to sit down with it yet but first impressions are it’s awesome. Plays...

    When you forget how much you love a guitar..

    This thing had been sitting in it’s case for nearly 2 years, toured it pretty hard and it needed a lot of repairs I just put off while playing other guitars. Finally got it fixed up and had all new hardware and pickups installed (was not a fan of the previous pickups so much, an experiment in...

    N(old)GD.

    Traded a friend an EC-1000 T/CTM I haven't played in a while for this old Viper-1000. I've always wanted one of these and regret not getting one from ESP when they still had some, but I was in my "ESP only" phase. :wallbash: They called the finish on these Olympic White but it's much more of...

    NGDx2 (ESP, Fender content)

    Have stumbled into a few new toys this past weekend. ESP Phoenix II and Fender Classic 60's Jazzmaster. I already switched the pickguard from my white Phoenix II and changed the knobs/switch tip to amber, as I've always been curious how this would look. Both look pretty good, but works a...

    NGD. Tele content.

    Got this the other day, currently on tour so sorry for the ....ty pics but whatever. Fender Road Worn tele. Looked at a bunch but this one had all the features I wanted and got it for a steal. I know relicing isn't everyone's thing but I actually really enjoy the job they did on these newer...

    5150 3 Footswitch alternatives

    I was wondering if anyone more knowledgable in the Footswitch of the EVH could help me out, I'm looking for an alternative to the Footswitch that comes with the amp. It's huge and a complete pain in the ass to lug around (no way I'm taking up that much space on my pedal board). I've been...

    Your number one guitar.

    Probably been a thread before but whatever.. Let's see your number one and why. Mine is my custom ESP. It's playability and sound has been unmatched by anything else I own or have owned. Gibson's, Fender's, other ESP's, Etc. Ironically, I don't take it on tour (I baby this one) but otherwise...

    NPGD (Project guitar!)

    Well, long story short a fan of my band sells telecaster and strat bodies under the moniker Maverick Guitars and came out to a show on our recent tour and gave me a body I had mentioned liking on instagram. Very kind of him, and I've never done a parts guitar before so looking forward to that...

    NGD. Bucket list of sorts.. (ESP Content)

    New to me, atleast. Acquired from a fellow/former ESP board member who also frequents many other forums as well and has an intense collection you have probably seen. I've wanted one of these for years but they are nearly impossible to find in the USA. The classic tone and look of the LPC with...

    New Used Guitar Day... a little Christmas present to myself. '04 Gibson Les Paul Classic. Loving it so far, definitely a players guitar and it just has an awesome vibe about it. Sounds great too, though I'm considering replacing the pups with some Lace Dirty Heshers. Some people...
