Guitar you didn't buy and still kicking yourself...

Around '84 or '85, a little second junk/consignment shop opened in the town where I was in school. They had a 60-something cherry doublecut LP Special for $150. I went in and looked at that thing every week for months, trying to talk the guy down to $100. I never got him down, and I never could pull the trigger at $150 because it didn't look enough like an SG and I was (still am) a huge AC/DC fan.

I eventually got a cherry singlecut and a TV yellow doublecut so it worked out OK but those were the 90's models.

Just this weekend I left out a Brian May Red Special replica of superb quality made by RS Guitars for the second time. It was damn cheap, but the guy was just stupid so I felt uncomfortable to buy from him.

The first I missed around new year's time 08-09. It had a stunning very unusual top for this type of guitar and was fairly priced.

I love wiring pickup in series. The RS is the reference for what's possible with series wiring.
