This has been my weapon of not-by-choice for the past 3 weeks and will be for the next 3.
I tried playing this morning. It's like I have two left hands. Better than 3 weeks ago when it felt I only had one hand.
In use ... don't mind the Krishna haircut, it got all shaved.

A-B d each of these tonight. Was expecting to be more pleased with the Falcon. Quite shocked when the Country Gentleman was easier to play.
So the Falcon is off to the shop tomorrow. The Falcon is brand new. The Gentleman gentley used (Mint.).
But the Gentleman responded so much better, more w ease, more better. Easier to play. And I wanted to prefer the 24.75 of the Falcon.
Was considering selling one of these.
Country Gentleman is all laminate maple. 25.5 scale
Falcon is solid spruce top w maple back n side. 24.75 scale
A-B’d each tonight.
The Falcon needs to go to the shop for explicit setup. The Country Gentleman is so much easier to play.
Will report back in a few weeks.

Been using the blue Silvertone S-style recently. Got a new fuzz pedal so I've been on a Strat kick. I even got my wah pedal back out. Tbh, this new Satisfaction Plus Fuzz pedal is a decent pedal. It'll do 'Satisfaction' to heavy Doom Fuzz to gated fuzz and eveything in between.
It's just a crutch until I can get this germanium Fuzz pedal built that I've been working on. I think I screwed the pcb board up from reheating solder joints too many times so I ordered a few more and someone that's been helping me troubleshoot it may be sending me a few germanium transistors and some pcb's also. Gotta check on that.

The usual suspect. I think many of you know the story behind this guitar. This is the 2023 Epi that I picked up for almost nothing for my bday last year. The day I bought it, 7 days after my bday, was the day my dad had a stroke. I won't ever be getting rid of this guitar. Ever.
That's one reason I kept it, even after the FedEx guy cracked the neck. This was the one I had showed my dad that morning and told him I was hopefully going to win the auction for.
When I left around 9am, I told him I had lost the auction. When I got back, around 1015am, he was having a stroke. So I didn't get to tell him later that day that I actually ended up winning the auction in a "2nd chance" offer from ebay. Something I've never previously gotten in the 20+ yrs I've been on ebay.
The weirdest part was that when I told my mom I lost the auction that morning, she asked "what happens if the winner doesn't pay?" and I said "well then it usually goes back up for auction again, I think?
".
Never guessing they'd send me an offer to buy it after the winner backed out a couple of hours later. Yea, this guitar has a story. It's story ends with me. I won't ever sell it so that's all there is to it. Its too good of a guitar to ever let go. And it weighs in at a super light 8 lbs even.
