Man, you guys have good memories!
I was talking to the guys in the band last night about Heinz and figured out that the last time Heinz had a real gig was summer of 2001. Five years ago!
Ben asked me how I kept Heinz in such pristine shape....I said, "I never gig it!"
Then I thought, 'Well, but he did travel all over the US and hung in a Guitar Center and had a neck trade (or two) and....'
It is in pretty amazing shape, all those things considered.
Sounds and plays better than it did the day I got it. (Must be because it's old, hah.)

You know, that was my take on it.
But then you're an obsessed punter.

I've got one kind of like it. Except Ray went and had those metal things put on his neck. And worse, the weird straight kind. Still sounds killer.

Great pictures guys, and Ray has a lefty guitard player.
