Well I have had this Gibson gothic flying V for a quite few years, I never was happy with the sound as the pick ups were so full on,, so over the weekend I dropped a set of Seymour Duncan 59`s into it, and wow what a difference, nearly as good as driving the Zed :evil:, might even take over from my trusty Les Paul :roll:

I'm a massive Steve Vai fan since his Frank Zappa days, seen him many times over the years in Alcatrazz, Whitesnake etc and solo, so his ' Passion and Warfare' Ibanez Jem is the ultimate guitar to me :D

Many thanks, I acquired the Ricky last year, a bit of an impulse buy but the guy selling it had only just bought it and couldn't get on with the neck so was selling it for a bargain price so snapped it up. Great chord guitar but difficult for lead, I've got my eye on a Gretsch Streamliner in the near future, great value :)

Very nice Rickenbacker that Tim :D , I must admit never played one,,,, yet, the AC30 is a superb amp, I still have one that I use occasionally, I’m playing through a modded Blackstar HT60 at the moment, great valve amp,
I have a problem with guitars, I keep collecting them lol I think 18 currently, I have the V, a Les Paul, a twin neck SG,, to mention a few,,
