Do i see a joint near the nut/head end of the neck?
the n shaped joint at the back of the neck.
if it is, is this actually normal on epi lps? personally i think this kinda joint is not good for the neck.
Because the 2 that passed through my hands doesn't have it. |

the black beauty is gorgeous...
had a honeyburst lp standard plus, but more of an investment thing
The only other guitar i have is an ibanez rg1550.
Thats my baby.
Not a rich guy :p
But want to get my hands on a good fender one day.
Or the js1200. |

kalo SX, look for the older makes.
exact LP cutting and set neck.
the newer ones cutting is a tad bit diffrent and wit a bolt on neck on most
but i think woh fatt still has plenty of the older models
on the other hand try out Santa Cruz LP copies.
dont know where u can find these now,
but kat SACC Mall shah alam ade 1 kedai.
they still have saki baki bout 2-3 of these, worth checking it out. _________________ "Jean Claude Van Damme is back. In the same crap you've seen over and over, and over again"

Hmmm..Dillion , Epiphone , Greco , Tokai , Yamaha are fine ..
SX...the last time i saw a LP custom black..it look really cheap..
i think the SX LP standard without top , burst color looks fine _________________ gapnap.com

hmmm..Burny is basically fernandes is it ?
i am not so sure about it ..never actually played one before..
1.2k..how about a 2nd hand epiphone?
PM khairold..i think he has some..or ishibashi
cause..i think if you spend RM600 on SX LP and another 600 on seymour duncans..not that worth it lah

yeah, wit a 1.2k budget, you have the advantage to just skipping SX and looking further up the price range. _________________ "Jean Claude Van Damme is back. In the same crap you've seen over and over, and over again"
