NGD!!!!!

So after searching for an LP for a few months now (mainly for a birthday present), I stumbled across one on eBay.

It was an Epiphone LP Studio Chameleon.

For $200.

And I was all like "NO WAY!"

So the bidding war happened, and I got it, a hard case a lead and some strings for $310.

And, boy, does it sound AWESOME!

Yeah, I think I sneezed or something when I took it. :P I'll have to retake one.

But man, I love how it sounds!

I've been watching those on craigslist where I live for a while now and that indeed is an excellent price. Congratulations.

VERY nice...

love the color... might have to do something like that for my next one... "retina searing" is a good thing here, methinks.

After the auction, I was sitting there thinking: "Man, I can't help but feel I've ripped this guy off." :P

So about retaking that picture?

But seriously, that's a pretty sweet looking guitar, even though if you had said "lime green guitar" to me before seeing the pic, I might have said, "worst idea in history."

It's only lime green from that angle though...it's purple from other angles.

I'll try to get on it on my lunch break.

It is pretty awesome, though. First thing I did was I took it out of the case and spun it around in the light to see all the pretty colours. :P

So by "lunch break" I meant "Next Thursday".

I got some more pics, they seem slightly better. :P
