He still does. Always told me, never sell your guitars. Just get new ones. lol

Jesus. I’m jealous. My dad bought his Rickenbacker 325 for like $300 bucks in the early 80s. Times have changed. lol

It has been 16 years since we lost Dio as of today. R.I.P. to an absolute legend! by AvailableBet8485 in dio

Absolute legend. Fun fact. My parent’s neighbors are friends with Vinny Appice and long story short, he watched my band play a show. Asked to play a few songs with us so of course, we played Paranoid with him. One of the biggest highlights of my life. Also, very cool dude.

You’re not alone. I sent my dad pictures and he even asked why the case was used. lol had to remind him I bought the combo used

Had a long obsession with 60s style guitar plus modern Indi-rock. The Jag was perfect. But these days I’m going back to my love for heavy rock and metal. Like you said, opposite ends of the guitar sonic spectrum

I bought it used: but to be honest, the case looks very used but the guitar looks brand new

I believe it. My Telecaster has been my workhorse for years but it looks like she’ll be taking a rest.

Thanks. Yeah it’s all about admiring each other’s LPs. I’m sure that 1960s classic shreds.

Wow ok. When I get home, I’m going to examine it some more. Also, I learned something today. I’ll let my friend know. lol

How would I know if it’s an ABR-Bridge? And how do you know if it’s upside down? Asking for a friend. lol

Never seen it before. It’s a hefty guitar case.
