A tele and a hollow body would fit right in there, Dan @MentaL
I had a nice vintage USA tele not long ago and I got rid of it

That is an awesome looking guitar, but the Mayones is the one that catches my eye in that crowd. What an axe!
Oh man. I contacted Mayones (Polish handmade guitars) recently to get this guitar https://mayones.pl/page/regius-6/ in white finish. Damn! There is 18 months queue to wait for this guitar (3200Euro...) but I need it so badly.

One and a half years? Jeez! Maybe shop used, they pop up from time to time.
Yes, I see a few Mayones on Reverb, but getting them back home/shipping/import is likely prohibitive.
It's not yet at my place, but I just preordered it...

I am on the way to change all guitars to white with reversed headstocks which means I will never have ugly Gibsons

Now the energy transition has already reached you.
Sound sample, using a TopJimi profile :
Now that is classy, SamBro'.
Perfect frequency balance. Oh how I'd love to be able to sound like that. It's so far from being shrill it's, well, perfect!
is it just me or does that sound like a Tele on steroids?
its got that Tele sound for me. (great)

It’s pretty crazy, Nicky. Doesn’t matter what profile I dial up, it sounds really really good with them all

It does, Ash! With a darker profile, it gets vintage Les Paul-y though, too. I’m really pleased with this guitar. It complements my other Alpher perfectly.
This will be my next one - white with reversed headstock

With your new collection I recommend not playing in the snow, Brother Skocz; if you get lost nobody will be able to find you.

That I can totally believe, SamBro'.
Say, how does the playability compare with your GG? After hearing that tone, it's got me thinking. I know I said to you privately that I'm so over this many-decades-long guitar journey to the extent that now I really only care about the ease of playing (and staying in tune), and if it sounds 80+% of the way there, I'd be more-than-happy.
After hearing this new-fangled contraption, I'm not so sure anymore...

Totally different beasts! The Charvel is really set up to shred, so everything feels really easy. Must admit, I never dared changing gauges for fear of losing that ultimate playability, so it still gets strung with 9s, which definitely makes a difference. The Alphers Have more fight in them, which I like for the types of music I’m generally out playing. They can take a heavy hand too, which is nice for me and my playing style.
Sounds great Sam love that neck, looks very comfortable!

... which I'd never be able to deliver, unfortunately. Bummer, man. It just might be the best-sounding axe (for my tastes) that I've ever heard.
Thank you for the feedback, bud.

Don’t get me wrong, though. My Alphers play like butter, too, just the feel is very different. The fret wire on the Charvel is jumbo, while both my Alphers have a thinner, lower, vintage variety. The Charvel and the Alphers have the same fretboard radius (12 inches), but the Alphers have a slightly wider, thicker feel to them. The two luthiers build to spec though, so you could easily order a custom job, if that was the way you wanted to go
Yeah, I'd need ginormous SS frets for starters, but that's food for thought, SamBro'.
Thanks man.
