P - doom


I'm sure there are many of us here who own a guitar (or guitars) that influences what you play due to its inherent tone. I bought the above LP '50s Tribute for cheap. It was in an un-loved condition. There were marked areas on the body that displayed surface wear & tarnish beyond what a bottle of guitar polish & revival fluid could do. The good thing is, the previous owner wasn't much of a lead player so there were virtually no fret wear to be seen, just oxidized frets. I stopped making efforts to revive the guitar to manifest visual appeal, just accepting it for what it is. 

This is my go-to guitar for super fuzzy doom tones. It seems that the default P-90s were conceived for this inclinations & it's definitely the pickups that respond well to my RAT pedal.


A quick re-string before play. Darco this time.
