I have an old SD sitting in a box just begging to be used. I also recently acquired a really shitted out strat body, so.....maybe
That sounds like the makings of a proper little rocket. I say do it.

Charmed might be an exaggeration :D the last 5 or 6 years have been pretty good to me (despite a few ups and downs) but the 37 that preceded it were a bit of a slog.

Well I like that a lot.
Back in those days, everyone knew that if you were talking about Destiny's Child, you were talking about Beyonce, LaTavia, LeToya, and Larry.

Beautiful guitars, the S-60's. Quite jealous, and congrats on getting one from someone you know rather than an ebay or Reverb lottery crapshoot.

I want a white one now ;D

I’d have this one refinished but it’s got a ton of “mojo” and playwear.
Weirdly I’ve just noticed I now have two S60s… a Guild S-60 and a Maton S60
