No, no, no! With the greatest respect, and a slight feeling of nausea, mine is not an iguana. There is no hint of yellow and no suspicion of burst.

This is an iguana....

....and it's revolting.

Malikon · 07-22-2012, 03:06 PM

Nice.

The translucent series is what got me into Epis. (way back when.)

Namelyguitar · 07-22-2012, 03:12 PM

Welcome from one new member to another!

Great Green!

lancpudn · 07-22-2012, 03:33 PM

The more i see the green colour, the more i want one. Congrats great guitar.

MyLeftyPaul · 07-22-2012, 03:51 PM

It's Kermit's guitar, give it back to him.

J/k, HNGD!!! Lovely guitar you got there!!!

Oh, and welcome to the forum.

Vladimir · 07-23-2012, 05:50 AM

Nice

markbastable · 07-23-2012, 06:08 AM

I have upgraded it a bit. It has Bare Knuckle Mules now (splittable on push-pull tone pots), and I replaced the gold knobs with cream ones that I think are more aesthetically satisfying. This was my first LP, bought on a whim on eBay, about eight years ago. Since I then, I've acquired a 1984 Greco LP (which you can see here, if you're interested) and a Gibson 60s Tribute Studio, which I'll post sometime. So, really, this ought to be sold now, as surplus to LP requirements.

Except, except...I have never sold a guitar in my life. I've had a couple stolen, and I've given one or two away, but I've never sold one. Can't bring myself to do it. And this Epi has huge sentimental value. So it's staying, and it'll get played.

(PS - where do I find the page from which I can create and edit my sig?)

Click the "user cp" button top left of the page, that will give you a list of options to change your details.
