Yay for Epis with the open book headstock, but there's still something a bit off about it - Is it still wider at the nut end?

Not sure. Considering I didn't find the original Epi LP headstock too offensive, I am perfectly fine with this one. I never expected it to be identical to Gibson's.

According to NZRSDave the full range is expected around March. However, the LP Special had 30th Jan date next to it! He wasn't sure what that meant but will try and get confirmation next week.

Well at $42 your GAS hasn't built up much pressure. :moresarc:

Been on a massive spree recently, which has started to ease off, thank the lord.

I'd still love a Durham Crazy Horse. Have been after one for years, but they never seemed to come up. Importing one new is just so pricey, and they never come up on TradeMe.
All the gear... absolutely no idea...
