Cheers guys.

I've been talking to a few people regards pickups for it and I've had several suggestions, but there's no rush as I can't afford anything yet after the weekend I've just had  :lol:

I used to have the Gibson US version - the Epi looks pretty much identical apart from the finish, very nice!  8)

Nice guitars, and they don't feel too big or heavy for a smaller person!  :D

It's not really that I'm a 'smaller' person per se, more that my gut gets in the way so a bigger bodied guitar just doesn't sit right  :lol:

I'm normally a LP player so don't mind a heavier guitar for the most part.
Selling lots of gear, enquire within!......

It's funny, I always used to find that with LPs - the thick body plus my protruding belly made them feel really awkward.

Now I'm skinny, I'm finding LPs a lot more comfortable (so long as they're not too heavy).  :lol:

I'll approach that thread with cross, garlic and holy water to be on the safe side....  :lol:

I WILL buy one, one day - if I can ever think of something to celebrate or some kind of landmark event.  I do often think about design details, but I flit back and forth between just a slimmed-down, streamlined but fairly conventional LP/Lion or something a bit different.

Sounds great!  :D

I think I probably have enough P-90 guitars (so that'll help me resist temptation), but very interested to see the Feline take on the concept!!
