| 1. I chose this guitar as number 1 because it was a workhorse guitar! The first guitar I?ve ever had where I changed the P-90 to a P-100. I recorded all of the Nightcaps recordings with this guitar. I played out with this guitar for about a year and retired it when I quit the Nightcaps! For a Korean-made Epiphone, it was the best playing guitar I?ve ever had. 18.* Epiphone Les Paul Special Cherry red! This was the next best guitar I've ever had! Sounded so good! I miss it very much! I had cracked the neck because I threw it! It became the famous "BONEPHONE"! It went thru many stages before I sold it to rippers: The mummy guitar, the tv yellow wanna be Johnny thunders, and then the BONEPHONE! Great sounding guitar that I did a straight trade with Alpha shitheads! I used this guitar during the Nightcaps tours and recordings! This ended up in Rippers! I got this during the summer of 1996 and got rid of it in 1998. RIP 1996-1998 1996** |

2. This has to be number 2 because it was my first Gibson. I?d cashed in all of my savings bonds for this guitar. It was always in tune for playing. I kept it for the first half of my Nightcaps career. I got it in 1995 and got rid of it in 1996. It sounded awesome witn the gold PAF?s! Definitely, a killer guitar! My first Gibson Les Paul in 1995 8.* Gibson Les Paul Studio white! Had to finally get the real deal! And I wasn't disappointed! The salesman tried to push a Gibson Les Paul Standard with Binding which was black and I should've went for that! This was cool! Great sustain! I had sold this in trade for the next one! It was one of the best guitars and the only reason why Gibson guitars are really the best! I got this brand new from Alpha and it ended up in a pawnshop in Newport news for a Black Gibson SG standard(#17)! That fuckhead, SteveF talked me out of a Mosrite, white on red, it was sweet!!! I got this in May of 1995 and got rid of it in 1996. I had wanted a guitar with binding and I stripped the finish of it on the edges and assimilated a binding effect! I should've stripped it all the way down! That would've looked really cool! I played out with this during the Nightcaps tours! I recorded about 354 songs with this guitar! I think I do have a recording of this guitar in action at a party we played in 1996 at my friend, Mike's house! P I should��?ve kept this! 1995 |

5. It?s amazing how 3 of my top five guitars were made in Korea! This thing sounded amazing in the studio. I finally got to play it loud and it was very cool! I should?ve kept this thing! Wow! 125. Minarik Inferno Studio: Nice fuckin' guitar! Not bad at all! I got this off the internet from Cowtown Guitars outta Vegas! Flame guitar, cherry sunburst! Seymour Duncan Pearly gates humbuckers! I changed the volume knob to the Spinal Tap knob that goes to 11. I put straplocks on the guitar as well! It came with a case which looks like that of a keyboard! Not a bad price! Used in the studio to record 3 songs! Sounded killer!!!! |
