NMMD!

Post by The Scarecrow »

New Melody Maker Day!

Saw this on TM last week at a very low reserve and threw on a modest auto-bid... suprised myself by winning it, complete with hardcase. Bit battered, but in a good way. First LP style guitar I have had in a few years and surpringly versatile - the single p90 is such a lovely sounding pickup for clean and mid-gainy stuff, but also manage to do heavier material without flinching as much as I'd thought. Epically light, but big in tone! Really gets that Billie Joe Armstrong power-chord crunchy tone, which was what I was hoping.

Yep, agreed. Can't believe I didn't get outbid, but I guess it's not everyone's cup of tea, Les Paul-wise.

Great stuff. I've been using my jnrs recently for gigs. ... Can do a whole gig with one p90 pickup. Awesome.
