Setups on lefties make my brain hurt, and the play test afterward is a challenge. I'm always concerned playing pentatonics backward will make the devil appear...😂
But I am very impressed by these customer Harley Bentons - amazing quality for the price👍🏻. #guitaroftheday

#guitaroftheday Kissing cousins - Gibson and Epiphone ES339s - the smaller bodied version of the iconic ES335. Yes the Gibson was better. But not 4x the price better. Both long gone! #gibson #epiphone #es339 #semihollow #guitarsky

#guitaroftheday Epiphone ES335 Inspired By Gibson. With the Probucker pickups, proper electronics and decent build quality, these are as close to the real thing as most of us will ever need. Great value used, and pay for a pro setup to bring it to life. #epiphone #es335 #semihollow #guitar

#guitaroftheday. Double trouble with two black Strats. Left is a '94 MIM Special with roasted maple Player neck while I refret and refinish the original. Right is an American Deluxe with new Genuine Parts body. Original body will get a nitro refin, and then 2 will become 3 #fender #stratocaster

Guitar of the day. Fully restored 1987 E-serial MIJ Stratocaster in Candy Apple Red. This one was a real barn find, now fully functional and gleaming. These early MIJ's are worth the hype #guitar #guitarsky #fender #stratocaster #MIJ

Guitar of the day. 1994 Fender Stratocaster "Squier Series". This one had been heavily upgraded with new hardware and Custom Shop pickups, and had one of the best Strat necks I've ever played. Fully restored and set up. New owner was very happy 😊

How cute is that? A customer dropped in his Les Paul for a setup today and brought along his daughter's "rainbow" guitar too. It's not terrible and tidying up the frets, proper strings and a setup and she'll have a decent platform to learn on

Double Trouble. A couple of gorgeous Telecasters both just been through a deep clean, fret dress and setup. 2022 Player series and a 2010 Classic Series 50's. What's your preference?
