Yes. Without question. This would work well for weddings, bars, firehouses and any other venue.

Would not work well for propping open a window.

Not sure it's deserving the $995 price tag though.

 

[LeftyTom]

Not with that mismatched control plate.

 

[sunvalleylaw]

Sure. Looks fun.

 

[jelloman]

Yes, please...

 

[Chad]

It depends on how those pickups sound.

 

[BlockInlay]

never saw one of those before, i like it.

 

[Gorgon90]

Not digging the look but as it's G&L quality is likely to be good so I'd try it out at least.

 

[Tig]

I love it.

Thank God it's Friday!

You should have seen the guitar I wanted to post, but the pics weren't good.

You did the right thing. I propose, going forward, that Friday GPOTDs should adhere to a tradition of modest pricing and traditional features that generate widespread positive response.

Tradition is boring.

 

[VoidTerraFirma]

Tradition is boring.

Deliciously boring, much like baseball.

 

[sleewell]

pretty sweet

 

[Help!I'maRock!]

Deliciously boring, much like baseball.

And yet, baseball is incredibly innovative. Like the GPOTD, you can watch it for years, and see things you've never seen before.

 

[bsman]

It's OK. For some reason, I've been dreaming of Fender TC 90s and JA 90s, which would probably scratch that particular itch as well...

 

[Aahzz]

Eh. It's OK.

 

[IamSeaDevil]

Tradition is boring.

Fuck tradition

Fuck tradition
