Carvin DC145 Custom

Custom made DC145 with neckthrough body construction and a matched overall finish. Both humbuckers have split coil option which is perfect for clean and less distorted "twang" tone. This was my second Carvin experience back in '99 and it's a superb guitar in any way, probably my favourite.. Very tight and definite tone. Done a lot of practice sessions and giging with this one through the years...

Gibson Les Paul '79 Custom

Gibson Les Paul Custom 1979. It is by far one of the better models that I've tried to date. Nothing has ever been changed from its original parts as well. The sustain in this one is unbelievable. Fat, warm and heavy sounding tone but at the same time keeps it defined which is kind of unusual for a Les Paul.. I use drop D tuning on this one most of the time.
