Furtive

1986 Ibanez RG440 and RG450. This was the first year/model an Ibanez had HSH:

How about that reverse V piece of {censored} Gibson just came out with? They need to call that thing the Shift+6.

I think it's called the Fireman. The Flanger looks like a reissue of the Jetlyzer.

I just don't get this. That's okay. I don't get pointy guitars. Do what makes you happy. I'm the middle aged guy that wears black socks with sandals cause I just don't give a {censored}. But I draw the line at pointy guitars.

I didn't say I was any good! I sold the Jackson. Truth be told it wasn't really doing it for me anyway, but I think my pointy days are over:lol: Used the money to buy one of these- which I love- pretty Metal anyway right?! You have found the correct answer. You can be overweight (I am), middle aged (I am), and still haz brootalz (I am... not) - but if you're playing a pointy guit, it will look kinda goofy. Provided you have the chops, Teles and Esquires do not look goofy on anyone, ever, period. And those humbucker Korean Teles, Esquires, and Squiers (I have an HH Squier bought from dcindc) are GREAT.

The first production guitar amps were used with lap steel guitars back in the 1930s. Go look on ebay for "Gibson lap steel". I think that those models had a prefix of "EH-" but I could be wrong. To the best of my knowledge, many early instrument amplifier circuits were derived from RCA patents that were released to the public during WW2. Leo Fender started off repairing radios before building his first amplifiers while working with Doc Kauffman. Good luck on your paper, sounds like a good idea.
