It’s a Tweedy and I love it, as does Chad Jr who of his own accord just learned his first two chords. He has a serious CCR addiction at the moment so that’s an easy place to start. He also lusts after the SG and I’ve advised this one can only be used under adult supervision as it’s pristine. He’s already looking for a players SG. It has the wider neck that was widely derided in the 2015 era. I’ve come to appreciate it. What I absolutely hate is the vibrato. The G string is always going out of tune. I’ve gotta find a fix for that. Also like other SGs it has a tendency to neck dive. I know I need to add a bag of shot to the electronics cavity, I just haven’t gotten around to it as I don’t play this one out and usually just rest it on my leg sitting down.
This one's only $3350. I'm sure you have that laying around in your sofa cushions like the rest of the Surly gangstas. https://reverb.com/item/93762417-2003-gibson-custom-shop-firebird-tv-white-p90 That's worth a click. It's an unusual finish on a Firebird. The TV White really shows off the grain.

Man, I love Pelham blue. I especially love when it ages and fades a bit into what Rickenbacker calls "Ocean Turquoise." https://reverb.com/item/93873383-2011-gibson-custom-shop-non-reverse-firebird-pelham-blue-rare-model
This brings up an important point - while arepas may be mid, the women of Venezuela are not and they are also not getting enough attention in all this. And I’d like to remedy that. Personally.
This. It would be better than what they have and an opportunity for more money to flow in. The US has done much better improving countries by spending money there peacefully than ordering change staring down the barrel of a rifle. Nobody likes that.
Less than an hour flight from Miami? History, beaches, sport fishing….Imagine a giant spigot of American tourist dollars opening if the communist government of Cuba falls. You’d be looking at Cancun II post haste. The people there are ready and want it. That is Cubas future if it ever opens to the US.
