I guess this one has poly finish, is that right ?

 

[YOGA64]

On hold :wink:

 

[davejm]

I'm trying, bro'. :wink:

@a-wai - I do believe it is poly on these, but what the Hell. :wink:

Well, I'm the new owner of this gtr.
Difficult not to reiterate Piero's reaction in the earlier thread after he bought the guitar from CCW.
I realise the apprehension of a guitar's 'mojo' is kind of self generating, but it's hard not to feel it with this one.
And it oozes 'The Greeny' in appearance.
Wonderful dish to to the top and that organic, rippling 'musculature' of a top carve that I despaired of finding - I've no idea if this is common to Grecos, being the first one I've owned.
Previously, what I take to be the 'default' medium D profile of Japanese LP necks has always defeated me, but this is such a beauty I'm going to 'endeavour to persevere' with it.
That said, not being a collector as such it's not completely out of the question that I might put it up for grabs here if the inscrutable Japanese D profile defeats me again, because it would be criminal for a guitar with this much almost palpable mojo to languish unplayed.
I will attempt to tap it, though.

 

[YOGA64]

Well said!

I'm into guitars that have "mojo",
no matter what they are, year, specs, etc.

I know it is subjective, but I like to think there is an x factor, and that you can feel it 8)

Hope you will enjoy it as much as I have in these past 3 years

Let's hear this thing!!

These Dry82's intrigue me and that does look a fantastic guitar - nice score!

 

[YOGA64]

The guitar has been sold with the Duncan Ant pickups..........

 

[spikeymikey]

Oh........bugger!!

...wait - lets hear it anyway!

 

[davejm]

Yeah, I went for the 'Full Greeny' and took up Piero's offer of installing the Antiquities for the Greeny mod.
I'm not teched up to make recordings, sorry.

I do love this gtr, but I'm still not sure whether I'll come to terms with the neck...

 

[CliffsGuitarWorld]

Aloha from Maui,

Great score.... the Mojo is awesome..... I sold the guitar to Piero,,, and I was too late in buying this guitar back.... Enjoy.... Cliff

 

[davejm]

Cliff -
I'm still hoping that I'll 'click' with the D neck, but I'm not sure if I will.
If not - and by some miracle - something half as sweet but with a slimmer C-ish profile shows up [possibly necessitating the extra funds] before 'full bonding' occurs I'll be happy to let you know, if you still want to welcome back the gtr.
