How are you finding the H-1000?

I spent an hour playing one a few weeks ago and found it to be one of the easiest guitars to play of which I've ever played.

What's your conclusion of it after owning it?

[OD-Black_Fire]

Guitars I own:
ESP LTD EC-1000
Squier Strat Pro Tone Series. Lol


My list is dwarfed compared to you guys. I am planning on buying an Ibanez then maybe BKP'ing it with a Holydriver.

[Antag]

BTW Antag, how does your Warmoth VIP stand up to the PRS guitars? I'm curious as to how close I can get for half the price!

It doesn't really.  Apart from a passing resemblence in body shape (the VIP is bigger & thicker), it's a totally different guitar:

25½" scale, bolt on maple neck, floyd rose, v-shaped neck profile, BKP MM & CS.

I like the VIP & play it a lot.  It was a bit of an impulse buy - saw the floyd routed VIP body & neck with R3 nut prep in the showcase, both already finished & decided "what the hell" because I've come back to using the Floyd in recent years but don't have many guitars with them.  If I was having a neck & body built from scratch I probably wouldn't have got those specs, but it's a nice guitar & I'm glad I got it.

FWIW there's a pic on pg17 of the BKP pics thread.

Dude, most famous people don't even have that many guitar D:

Antag's worse than me isn't he?  I just like to have "one of everything" except for the Ibanez sub-collection...

[Sailor Charon]

Well, it goes something like this...

80's Japanese Fender Strat with Trilogy Suites, bought 16 years ago and in the possession of someone else for a lot of that time...
Gibson SG Goddess with Mississippi Queens, and individual tone/vol pots (Gibson don't do that on the Goddesses, but they do on their others, go figure...)
Burns Double Six, with a brass nut for some reason. Apparently that's not normal?
Vintage AV3 (335-alike). I'm probably going to be putting a pair of Rebel Yells in this, and adding concentric pots so there's individual tone/vol/coil splits for each pickup. (Yes, coil split is done with a pot, not push/pull)

And one on order, which I'll be getting in 18 months to two years...

[Philly Q]

Headstock was hit by passing van while I was waiting at a pedestrian crossing

65 Melody Maker (recently sold, sad to say)

Nooooo!  Why'd you sell it?

Interested to see you had a Hamer Eclipse too.  That was a nice little guitar, but somehow it just wasn't quite as good as it should have been.

[cjpmmd]

Had to sell the old Melody Maker due to some financial hardship, a tale involving:

a) caring for the wife's parents over the past year (trying to avoid nursing home),
b) being tagged by the IRS for a foul-up on my 2004 taxes (sadly, it was indeed my error), and
c) a lot more, but those two will do to go on with.......

I got a respectable price on eBay, and it's on its way to a new home in Australia.  Long may it rock the Antipodes!   :)

-Don't remember make/model of my first electric. It had a body like a Tele, a trem like a Strat, 2 humbuckers like a Les Paul, and a pointy headstock like a Jackson. A bit of a frankenstein guitar, with a trem so stiff it practically needed 2 hands to use.
