Members ArKay Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 Another guitar from my have-to-get list. They don't pop up very often and when I logged into eBay and saw that it had less than a minute left I just had to bid. The Hot Rails Lead totally overpowers the neck humbucker so they are at about the same height... May have to swap one of them, not sure yet though.

Members Dogsinotpalc Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 The on;y complaint I have is why cover up so much of that nice flame top with so much pickguard. Ida either gone clear or smaller, like this: Other than that I'd call that sweet. I think they made one of those for Ritchie Blackmore, it's in that video where he talks about his guitars with his singer/wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ArKay Posted May 21, 2009 Author Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 The pickguard is part of its appeal, at least for me. They made other stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Jkater Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 Incredible! It looks like new!!! It is totally "edel" and your pics are awesome. I like the "moon" contour in the heel area so much. That's one of the nice touches on that guitar. To me, that's kind of a boutique guitar and certainly they were made in relatively few numbers. In 1995, Lag was still a small shop in B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
