My latest, a 1995 prs custom 22, and a guitar I bought a few months ago, a mayones setius GTM6.
Pretty standard prs custom 22 with a nice history! It is a little road worn, but it adds character to the guitar. This one plays and sounds awesome!

custom wound P90's from Mojo PickupsAbsolutely love it. I'm a fan of the classics, but even more so when they are slightly re-imagined without loosing the lines and forms that made them beautiful in the first place.

The Majesty's insane, Frank.
Mate, if I ever come to Germany, you've gotta let me play it!
I'll supply the earplugs.

Some really pretty guitars here!!
I'll try to keep this story brief...
30 or so years ago I met a very special friend. He was a true renaissance man. An intellectual, an incredible craftsman (arguably one of the finest machinists and metal shapers in the world) and a very expressive musician. He was a great friend to me and from him I learned about and was exposed to many things I would have otherwise missed. He had a great impact on the way I listen to and play music. I can't say enough about how much I enjoyed his friendship and artistic approach to life. Unfortunately, after a long battle with depression and substance abuse of the worst kind, he took his own life. It was a shock. Since then (15 years or so) the whereabouts of some of his instruments have remained a mystery and there are some still to be found. However... I recently had a client come in to my shop with four cases in his truck. In a plain jane SKB case I found this..

My late friend's '77 Les Paul Deluxe! It took me an entire afternoon of hand buffing to find the grain and the fretboard had a layer of God knows what on it that was three feet thick, but she cleaned up real nice. There's still some fret left (wasn't much on these when they left the factory during the Norlin years) and the neck is dead on with no rise in the tongue. It plays great and has an absolutely wonderful, harmonically mega-rich tone. The old minis are as microphonic as I am fat, but they're staying in there and I'm NOT potting them. This lady is too sweet to change...
When my client left he grabbed up his cases and, apparently understanding my attachment to the LSP, said I could keep it as long as I like... I nearly cried... To have this instrument in my care even for the time it took to get her restored was a very special thing for me. To have her in my foster care is a dream come true...
So... RIP Johnny, I've got her and she's safe and happy... Love you, man!!

I'm so saddened to hear about your loss, Vaughnfats.
I've lost several friends to similar circumstances, and reading your description brought memories that I usually manage to keep out of my mind, flooding back. Not a bad thing - just appropriate, I feel, for the occasion of empathising with your situation.
She certainly is a beauty, mate.
-
Thanks Monkey... I hope I didn't dredge up anything horrible. I try to hold on to the best memories of my life and put the bad in a box and lock it. It's not always easy, but remember the best and forgive the rest. Good thoughts bring good things...
-
Ha! Thanks mate.
No, you didn't dredge anything up; I did, and yes, it's all pretty terrible... but I am laughing. You might've shown me a key, but I unlocked the box, to use your paradigm.
I do the same thing, mate. Pandora's box it is.
