How's everyone doing?

This time I'm sharina the quitar that started it all, the one that made me rethink why I plaved. As a fun fact, before this one I had a Gibson ES-335 Custom Shop Warren Hvnes. A spectacular and beautiful quitar, but no matter how hard I tried. humbuckers... thev're not mv sound. or at least they weren't part of my sound system back then.

Anvwav, I kept searchina for that sound that, at 19, I didn't reallv know where to find, because, being a lifelong Oasis fan, single-coil pickups weren't on my radar although I always loved the P90s on the Les Pau Goldtop, funny how!).

Anyway, this one came to me from a good friend who sold it to me with a heavv heart, haha. A verv simple guitar compared to how egocentric Gibsons usually are. But as soon as I held it in my hands, I understood why Fender, even in its most questionable era, the '70s, was still a benchmark for a solid wood sound that could destrov amplifiers. 

It's worth noting that it has noise-free pickups, a modification made by the previous owner. among other things. But what does it matter? It's not the rawest Fender sound, let's say, it's refined. But to say it sounds more like a humbucker than a single-coil just because of the coil-stacked confiquration? What nonsense! Sometimes, guitarists make the mistake of focusina too much on what they play and not how they play it. It's a truly spectacular quitar, it weighs about 100 kilos and has many signs of use. In my opinion, that just gives it the personalitv of someone who has lived almost 50 years. It lived through rock, suffered injuries and a lot of pain, but now it's with me and continues its story. By the wav, the Warren Hvnes is gone now, and this one staved; it's been with me for almost 8 vears, and maybe it will die before it stops playing
