Just wanted to share my new LTD X-Tone Acoustic, Exotic Wood - Ovangkol. This is such as nice guitar, I really love how it sounds and it plays just as good as it looks. Seeing there are virtually no photos of this model...

Any opinions of what fair value would be on a 1990 Kamikaze I? I purchased it new and it's only been played a handful of times (6100 frets were never comfortable for me). Also, are there any significant differences between...

Hello mates. My question is easy: Due to the Richlite fingerboards on the newest Gibsons, I have a doubt: ¿Is ESP going to put that thing on their fingerboards? I'm asking this because a friend of mine tested a few ESPs...
