Well I havent posted here in 5 years, I wonder if its changed... Guess not. Hope you're all doing well and the Joe Walsh guitar is special for far more reason than anyones complaining about. For WL prices you get a guitar that has options PS doesnt, the resale value of a limited run, the...

Vernon from Living Colour did via the PTC.

3 pickup splits and 2 preamp controls.
