Excellent Pacifica hateandwar - I agree - it's one of the most comfortable guitars I've played. Mine's a natural wood 112 with a midi pickup fitted. A very underrated guitar imho - even with the stock pickups  |

So I've been enlightened w/ the science behind uploading photos....so I'm trying this again. I'll start from the beginning:
My first guitar ever...paid 30 bucks and got a little practice amp w/ it (I just noticed my high-powered pellet gun w/ scope peaking out from behind the curtain ):

Next up is the guitar I started playing live w/ my first band. I really miss this guitar..the drop D switch was very handy (played a lot of hardcore/metal nonsense):

Then I got serious and started leading the church band and what not and the style of music was quite a bit less "hardcore" and more pop-rocky:

The past year I've realized I really like a thicker, humbucker tone and picked up this bad boy (samick artist series les paul copy...$300 ebay special )...currently trying to find the right pick up combo...a lot of you guys are helping me in a few other threads. My only complaint is how thin the next is, otherwise I like it just as much if not more than the Gibson lp's:

Somewhere in there I bought a big baby taylor w/ electronics:

Unfortunately, I've had to sell off what I had to upgrade to the next thing so I haven't been able to build a nice collection. I do have a squire jazz bass standard just in case I have to hold down the fort. The end. |

| That Tele looks interesting, drewkiewiet ... what model is it? I can't recall seeing too many teles with rectangular inlays on the fretboard... the strat pickup configuration also is not very common. |

| Ya, I bought it after it was discontinued, I guess it wasn't hugely popular, but I thought it looked sweet. After I got it though, I realized it was much more like a strat (5 way selector so you could never get the bridge pickup and neck pickup together). It's called the "big block telecaster." They also made a big block strat and a big block p-bass. They were all made in Mexico. |
