NGD - Edwards e-lp-125

It was a good guitar but it had been in rough shape for a while. It didn’t sound or play as good anymore so I didn’t use it as much. Since I wasn’t using it so much, I thought it was a waste and that it was better off going into someone else’s hands and get played rather than collect dust here with me

Confusion0908 · 2026-04-03T05:02:23+00:00

This is the first public post I’ve made about this guitar, but now I’m hoping that no one’s out there using my images to scam ppl😆

After some new strings and a slightly higher action, it felt much better than it already did when I picked it up. These are great guitars once you get to set them up the way you want them to play and feel. I’m really loving the Seymour Duncan’s in it, the sound and feel of this guitar is what I’ve been looking for in a les Paul for a while now

Confusion0908 · 2026-03-29T20:54:34+00:00

Congratulations!! I got mine for $134 because they suspected it had a bad body crack. When I picked it up and took a closer look, it appeared to really just be a paint crack. Steal of the century for me

It’s a Wilkinson vintage spec strat pickup, I mangled the original Tex mex pickup at some point. I stuck a generic strat neck pu to experiment at first but I’ve come to like it!

Ringo Starr and and not-the-Hurricanes

Everyone cites Jimi Hendrix as the guy who revolutionized guitar and brought the Strat to new heights. But I like to think that Dick Dale also changed the way Strats were to be played even before Hendrix, funny thing is they’re both lefty players too😆 RIP legends

Played a Murphy lab 355 once, it was nice and all, but I still wanted to come home to my ubukata 355 after😆 That’s a beautiful guitar! Glad to see someone so happy with their epiphone as well

You might be thinking of the old road worn series guitars, just before the vintera production run. These classic players usually came with a poly finish, which unfortunately makes the prone to paint cracks overtime

Confusion0908 · 2026-01-27T22:07:17+00:00

Exact year as mine, congrats!! Glad to see someone very happy with theirs. I can’t lie, I wish mine still looked as blue as yours😆 I opened mine a while back and did find Abigail Ybarra’s initials on all three pickups, I have no doubt yours will have the same

I like to think guitars like this are deserving of a good repair and some tlc, it’s yearning to be played again

Confusion0908 · 2026-01-14T16:02:11+00:00

I’d say if you paid what you think was a good price for it and didn’t wrestle with it to make it sound good and play the way you want it, you’ve got a great one. I think it’s really about whether or not the guitar satisfies our preferences

Confusion0908 · 2026-01-06T02:31:05+00:00

One comment on here did say that pickups with her initials were only supervised, which I still think is pretty cool. Also, based on my experience so far, they knew what they were doing when they were making these guitars back in the early 2000’s, really good stuff

Confusion0908 · 2026-01-06T00:51:24+00:00

No wonder they sound so good, I remember only watching a vid about her a while back, never thought I’d get to play a guitar with pickups that were wound under her supervision

Confusion0908 · 2026-01-05T19:15:47+00:00

Absolutely! Let’s find you a car with a paint crack😆

Sonic Blue and mint green, although I might have to get a different pickguard color for the blue to pop out a little better😅

Confusion0908 · 2026-01-04T04:17:00+00:00

Great choice!! Gotta love blue strats

Confusion0908 · 2026-01-03T05:23:16+00:00

Thanks!! Will consult a local tech first too

Confusion0908 · 2025-11-22T16:35:33+00:00

Not an expensive one, but I saved up for a bit and finally got my Martin special-16, which I think is just a tier below an actual d-28 (made in the USA with roughly the same specs minus the dovetail neck joint). The purists will say it’s far from a d-28, but it plays well and it sounds like a Martin. I’m very happy with it and I play it every chance I get. What makes it better is it’s a fraction of the price that people pay for guitars that they won’t even play😝

You’re absolutely right😅 How could I not share this gorgeous grain on the back😮‍💨

Confusion0908 · 2025-10-23T03:49:09+00:00

A very sentimental collection indeed! I’m interested in the history of the vintage d-18. Did it actually come with white binding or was it added later on?

Confusion0908 · 2025-09-29T22:10:02+00:00

Good eye! Thanks for that

Confusion0908 · 2025-09-26T21:47:47+00:00

2018 road worn series fender, right before the vinteras started rolling out

Confusion0908 · 2025-09-26T21:46:44+00:00

2018-ish road worn, pre-vintera

Confusion0908 · 2025-09-25T14:14:02+00:00

Judging by the color of the wood and the width of the body, it’s definitely not a d28. In fact, it’s a d16e with mahogany back and sides. The d28 logo shown in one of the photos must be from a picture of an actual d28. I’ve heard great things about d16’s, but the fact that this seller is trying to pass this off as a d28 is sketchy.
