You all have seen this one before, but she just arrived and it is as nice as you would have heard or even imagined.

Hard to photograph the paint on it as it is so subtle. Much much nicer in person.........

Big thanks to Pete D for putting us together......

Yeah, I tried to play it cool as best I could but it was hard to do with that pic of the box that says "Mike Y" on it.

Thanks to everyone for the comments!!!!

I always liked the Gold Roller but the colour didn't really appeal to me. This was the right way to go as the gold hardware on that black paint makes for a nice contrast. Couple that with the Roasted maple neck with Ebony fretboard and it is spec'd out almost exactly to my liking. ( gold Floyd on there would have put me right over the edge with excitement).

This is the lightest guitar I have ever held, but the tone coming out of it is huge!! The Mini-humbuckers are really warm and have the right amount of output for a vintage style tone........

Really a fun guitar to play......

mmmmmm roasted...

if I could afford a JPX with a roasted neck my life would be complete. I wasn't sure about the black sugar finish to begin with but it has really grown on me.
