A while ago I made a transcription of a Joe Pass solo fingerstyle version of Joyspring, as I was fascinated to know how he made this into an effective solo guitar arrangement (I worked it out from that youtube video where he plays to some people in a guitar shop, plus bits from another version he recorded).
It’s an absolute pig to play, I still can’t play it properly. Increased my respect for Joe no end. Especially as in the youtube video he starts talking while he plays it!
I believe both models you mentioned are currently made in Indonesia. I have owned Japanese made Ibanez models (2616 and 2355) as well as a Chinese made Ibanez AS103 semihollowbody that is very well...

FL home insurance is already tenuous but I probably need to check in with them on household possessions...
I might too, but remember that you (and I) have had extensive experience with all of the real items: amps, OD's, delays, modulation etc. That previous knowledge takes you pretty far with one of these...
Not a good investment. A Gibson citation is not a vintage Les Paul, it'll never be in as much demand as a vintage Les Paul. And back in the 70s a Les Paul wasn't $10,000.
If you want to play a...
Guitars are tools to make music; buy a painting, or a classic car (?).
I'm ok with the OP's spelling as it's easy to follow if you read it aloud. A lot of English spelling is a joke, anyway, and a...
I was fortunate enough to acquire some great gear in the '80's and '90s. A couple of vintage Fenders and a nice '60 ES345, late '60's L5CES etc. I got them all because I needed them for the musical...
