I've never been able to play the genuine article, but I did own a R/I once, and truth be told I've never regretted selling / trading any guitar as much as I've regretted trading that one. ...
Daniel DeLorenzo - SomekindaStory 2020 presented a unique opportunity to explore an album of “less than live” solo performances and thematic compositions. The “Standards” on this album have been...
Yes; my Strat has 48 visible screws without even flipping it over. It still has a little of that "prototype look". :pride:
