New historic Gibson in da houze. A 1959 reissue with washed cherry VOS finish. Installed Bare Knuckle Mules yesterday. Sounds awesome:D

Congrats on a totally stunning Suhr, Impulse 101! Truly one of the most awesome guitar tops I have seen in years.

Second that. Although mr. Bellamy has done some crazy cool stuff with the FF, it´s completely useless most of the time. I rarely use the one in the DL-1 but it is definitely a must have to maintian the originality of the gutiar. My FF pedal sits somewhere in a drawer...

You mean vignetting? Not any noticeable vignetting with this lens so haven´t done anything to it really.

Yeah the Herbert seems really nice. Still think the ENGL wins in versatility though. But I have never tried any Diezel, but would love to one day.

That´s an ENGL InVader 100 on top of an ENGL Pro cabinet loaded with four Celestion V30s. It´s a beautiful amp. ENGL is mostly known for their all out metal/prog rock stuff. This amp does that too, but also a lot of other sounds. It can really go from super heavy to more classic Marshall sounds. The cleans are also pretty decent for a high gain amp like this. I´ve had it since last summer and so far I´m satisfied. Kind of want a Vox for cleans in addition, but I have to limit my gear spending a little:)

Yes it´s because I have used a wide angle lens for this shot. Wide angle lenses let´s you include more in the photo at a close distance. The penalty is that objects near the edges get stretched. Take a close up portrait shot of your girlfriend with a lens like this and she will never forgive you:) And thanks by the way!!

Thanks! That´s a Diago Tourman pedalboard. Way too big for me. I ordered the smaller Showman model, but it turned out to be sold out from the factory. The store offered me the larger model for the same price. The lazy fuck in me said yes. In addition to what Tom! listed there is also a Keeley Compressor and a Keeley Fuzz on the board.

That would probably look quite good. First time I see that model.

Thanks JT! If I could choose I would probably go for Butterscotch. Problem is there aren´t many guitar stores around here who stock that many different Teles. And I score low on patience:-) But the natural finish has really grown on me already. Love the subtle pattern of ash. I really like black on black as well. Many years ago I tried to find a decent Stratocaster in black with black pickguard. I think those look cool.

Thanks bucket! Couldn´t agree more with you both. Also impressed how robust it is. Most guitars are built a bit delicate and kind of fragile. Teles are built like tanks. Solid wood and all solid, no bullshit metal hardware. Already loving this thing after just 24 hours.
