Yes. Spruce top, walnut back and sides. Utile neck (used as a substitute for mahogany apparently). I'll eventually get around to recording some clips with it, but probably not this weekend.

There will never be another Zombie Fender.

I've always wanted a Gibson Super Jumbo, and when this SJ200 Studio popped up for 48 month 0% when you use your Sweetwater card, I couldn't help it. I just got it today. Unboxed it and played it for about 20 minutes. Sounds great and looks amazing. I can't wait to play a gig with it.

I've lived in WV my whole life. My grandfather (and most of my great uncles) were coal miners. My v dad and most of my parents generation were coal miners until the 80s. In the 80s, a ton of the deep mines shut down in favor of strip mining, or laid off b union workers and hired non union...

16 years later and I still have the guitar, still haven't made a new pickguard. It's one of maybe 3 or 4 electrics I play. Then again, I play about 95% acoustic nowadays. I do remember when I bought the guitar, I thought I could just take it apart and sell it for parts because I knew the...
