A favourite guitar
Posted: 20 Feb 2019, 08:39
I'm fortunate to have quite a collection of guitars including several vintage Gibsons, also a couple of strats and a tele, but for some reason every day i pick up my white '87 Japanese strat, and to be honest it looks a mess, the paint's wearing off, the lacquer is flaking off the neck, there are holes in it from various modifications over the years, but it's feels and sounds fantastic.
It was refretted about 25 years ago and there is still virtually no wear on them, I fitted a set of Texas specials about 10 years ago and that's it, it rarely goes out of tune, it never gets cleaned, and it gets lent out to anyone who wants to borrow it, but it's the only guitar I own that I would never sell.
Does anyone else have a a guitar that they can't figure out why it's a favourite?
