It's an Epi. A very, very nice Korean Epi from 1996, but it's not a Gibby!

That's an awesome guitar, do you not play it much?

How unfortunate

, I would've loved to see some more 3 pickup Customs here. At least it's an older Epi not the garbage they're putting out today.

Thought you might be going for this look

I love Black Customs aswell as white ones, not sure which I'll end up with (probably both!)

What pickups are you going to put in it ?

nakleh · 04-30-2011, 04:53 PM

My 2006 Custom, purchased directly from the Gibson showroom in 2008. Amazing guitar. All original except for tonepros locking bridge and tailpiece being recently added, as well as new reflector knobs instead of speed knobs.

I ordered a couple of Guitarforce pickups from kevint; Rockdriver in the bridge, Lord Of The Blues in the neck. I bought a couple of sets of Rebel's from him, and they are fantastic.

Sweet top on her! I've never seen a Custom with that top before, it's gorgeous :O. I named my guitar Nikki, and after adding the SD Blackouts, she became Nikki the Ripper.
