You already have amps though right? You can get 8 years on tube playing at home at moderate levels no problem. Re-cap? 30 years under conservative use.
I think the opposite. Go digital if gigging because it’s indistinguishable in the mix, where as at home, for me, just doesn’t replace “in room” tones. Additionally, you digital rig will depreciated more the the price of occasional tubes or cap jobs
A little back story. Edwards guitars are a great value, and are consistently well made. The reality is that anything after 1997 was made in China with and Japanese hardware and setup added in Japan.
Story number 2. Navigator is ESPs premier brand for traditional style guitars. After 50 years...
I bought 2 of these since they were limited. Haven’t even been opened. No need for me to sit on it. Will sell for $250 PPFF. I am shipping from a USPS on an Air Base so priority shipping is closer to 1 week.
John Deere green is not an over the counter color. Black and cream were the only options for bobbins long before DiMarzio. When people see double creams in a real late 50s Les Paul, you think PAFs not Dimarzios.
Gibson did a run from 1988 to 1998 of guitars in Japan under the name of Orville, the the actual Les Paul on the headstock. Neck is .86 to .99 and long tenon.
