Tonight I was poking through the ads on Kijiji and saw a beautiful tobacco burst Epiphone Joe Pass model,it has the reissue PAF pickups but I don't know if they are the Epis or the Gibson PAFs so I emailed him to clarify it.If he emails me back and if it's still there I will certainly have it,because it appears to be in mint condition and since I don't have a proper jazz box,this puppy would be a no-brainer for the price that he's asking for it. I just hope that nobody else realizes what a bargain this guitar is,it must be a Custom Shop model because all of the Joe Pass models I have ever seen lately are the natural finish and the vintage sunburst model was only made from '91-'93.Anyway I will be keeping my fingers crossed in hopes that he hasn't sold it yet.

I have an update on the Epi Joe Pass situation.If he has sold the guitar already I won't be that worried or disappointed.The beautiful top shelf Dillion Explorer that my buddy and fellow forum member,Blinkers,sold a couple of years ago is also up for sale by the guy who bought it.This guitar is simply dynamite and is of superb fit and finish-an incredibly well made guitar that although awkward looking,is quite comfortable to play but it's most redeeming quality is the tone of it.Blinkers replaced the stock pickups with Vineham overwound 'buckers that make this guitar a real monster when driven hard through a mega-loud amp such as the Mesa-Boogie amps that are aimed squarely at the thrash metal crowd.I absolutely loathe most metal music and thrash and death metal most of all,but since the guitar is capable of pulling off these tones,she can really give a great classic/hard rock raunch too,which is right up my alley.So it looks like either way,I'm going to have one more great guitar in my guitarsenal.

This will be guitar 32 I believe but possibly 33,anyway I hope to make it an even 3 dozen by the end of this year,after all this will be my 60th year and I need to celebrate it some way. I wish that I could bring my total up to 60 to honor my 60th year.
