I might have agreed with you before the Zephyr adventure and I do like a nice P90. I traded a P90 Loar plus some cash for this Emperor and I have an old ES125, though it needs some P90/pot repair...
Another vote for Gibson 57 classic. I think they’re very hard to beat in an archtop.

Is that the guitar that is known as the pre Joe Pass?
You should find plenty of work with piano, organ and vibes under your belt. Good trio gigs.
I bought my Favino having heard and seen Boulou and Elios. Not easy to source in the UK back then. It was advertised in the 'Banjo Broadsheet' which was a monthly issue of 4 or 5 typed and...

The guitar isn't an easy instrument to get right digitally, played from a keyboard. Any good software guitar instrument requires deft handling of the expression wheel. I have found pretty good...
mine is a 2012/2013, i did a video about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ziF2giwUU8 It's not as open sounding as the '80s models. Basically they've made the build heavier and heavier over...
I had the cab speaker turned off. I put it next to me because that was the only empty space on the stage… The mic idea sounds good, but with the drummer right behind me, wondering how much of that...
Ibanez archtop with 0.010 Thomastik strings and...
