Re: Epiphone question
Yes, you can remove the pickguard.. It will leave three small holes, but you can take it off.

That was my point. Basically, all you get for the extra grand is "Gibson" on the headstock. Pretty hard to justify when you have to watch your pennies.

ADO ol' pal, listen carefully-----you have to remember, a guy cannot have too many guitars. There's your justification.

"I really want it so bad". That says it all. Go buy it. Now.

Re: Epiphone question
Ahh... Some relief in knowing there are people out there who dont disagree with a person owning more than one guitar.

Re: Epiphone question
Can the P90's be changed to anything else?

Basicallly I want the P90 sound, but I really love the looks of the LP Snowy White play on the Roger Waters Live DVD..
