just picked up a 1975 Gibson Marauder:

when I got it, it had a cheap EMG Special for the neck pickup and a Duncan Hot Rails that was hacked into the bridge. I replaced those with mostly stock pickups even though the bridge one is the wrong color for that year...

and

And an Agile AL-3100 Black Slim Profile is in the mail. The Al-2000 was out of stock which is ok because I actually wanted this guitar which was previously out of stock until now!

Well I am getting only one now. The one on this page the AL-3100. You can hear back to back comparisons to a Gibson Les Paul here:

(Smitty, your avatar is awesome.)

Recently added a BelCanto e.One DAC3. Had to work with them on the software a bit... It sounded great, but lacked "a few lines of code" from what I understand. It'd pop & click going to black and such. Long story short, it's a wonderful unit...

i know some guys but unfortunately not very reliable in getting things back in a timely manner. based on what i've seen on ebay, you can expect to pay somewhere between $100-250 for a super cool bent sk-1. i would search SK-1 videos on youtube and maybe contact some of those guys if you see something you like. that's what i did.

tbh, the sk-1's stock features are more than enough to keep me entertained for quite some time. i think i'm going to be the only guy around with a stock sk-1 and a stock korg poly-800 if things keep going the way they have this decade...

I picked up a silverburst 1980 Gibson L6-S earlier in the spring. I need to find some of the pictures I took of it.
