Where's gwEm when you need him?

I'm not normally a fan of V's, but I'd happily have that in the collection.  Noice axe.

+1.  Can't usually stand them, but I like that.

Nice,

Miracle man Bridge, Cold Sweat neck!

+1 - sounds good
I have just put a pair of MM in an Epiphone Gothic V and it sounds really good, although the CS neck would be a nice touch

I was aware of the Gothic 2 model - good score!  :D

I fancy a Voodoo, but it would need to be cheap  :?

I love the Voodoo finish so much but I hate that cheezy red skull inlay  :(

I went for voodoo looking pickups to get closer to this look. Might change the knobs too for something meaner or vintage (witch hat fTW!! :))

But Voodoo's are expensive and the ash body on such a guitar is really not my thing. For having heard a voodoo explorer model I can say putting a holy diver in it is almost a real need. Its nothing like the gibson usual sound, its way more bright , even too much.

Try to get the knobs like on the Voodoo (i.e. no hats)!
Like the guitar!
Miracle Man would be my choice too.

a voodoo V went on the bay for the 6-700 pound region today. would still be nice to get one a bit cheaper, though that is more or less a good price.

That's about what I paid for my Voodoo Les Paul. The Voodoo's aren't that common, one in very good condition probably won't get much lower in price.
