Thanks. I don't play out, but this thing always grabs eyeballs when I show it to people. My favourite guitar, and the one piece I hope I never have to sell for whatever reason.

I imagine you do all your own fret work so having a backup for those luthier moments isn't as much of a necessity.

I do, thank god
If I didn't, I would have picked a stainless steel fret guitar for my "one guitar" because I practice a lot
Like, 1-3 hours a day of woodshedding with a metronome, not counting band practice or dicking around writing stuff alot

I'm with you. I'm due for a dressing on the 335 already. Not even a year in. That was averaging 3 hour days plus gigs and rehearsals. I actually been burnt out on practice lately just because march-july was a slog. Trying to ramp back up for Sept and Oct trips but I'm still kinda fried. I wish I knew how to do fretwork but unfortunately I still gotta hang onto a 2nd guitar for those moments. Consider yourself lucky to be able to cut it down to one guitar and survive. Wish I could do the same.
Long game is definitely stainless for me on ol' #1.

I don't think people who have lots of guitars or don't practice as much realize how much of a boon stainless can be for people like us
Being able to dress frets and do work is a great backup, but it is as advertized, "work"

I actually like doing all my work on a single guitar rather than jumping to other axes all the time so I def wish everything sold today came with stainless.I don't think people who have lots of guitars or don't practice as much realize how much of a boon stainless can be for people like us

The only thing I *don't* like about my LP is that it's way too fucking heavy

You gotta switch up your strap game a little bit to handle a big boy like that beautiful LPC you have there:

Here’s the first LP I ever bought back in 1984
My ‘80 Gibson Jimmy Wallace ‘58 RI LP Standard.
And some pics of me rocking it in ’84

It's a master class. There are moments when heavy reverb is warranted. I would say that is one of them since he is doing his best to cop an early BB King vibe.

VBF is correct, you need a padded strap or something much more comfortable if you wanna join les paul gang full time brother

I need to reinstall the bottom strap button first; pulled it out the gigbag the other day and the whole button and screw just stayed in the bottom of the bag
