I knew my main Custom 22 was going to turn ten years old soon, but I actually missed it. Dug out the hang tag... missed it by a week or so!
I haven't actually owned it for 10 years. It sat at the dealer on the shelf for a year and a half before I bought it new. It was just hanging out, waiting for me to come along.
This guitar has seen relatively few modifications - relative to my habits anyway. DGT bridge pickup with stock Dragon 2 in the neck. Tremol-no. New lampshade knobs. Straploks.
This guitar changed the way I think about guitars. It was a 180 degree revolution. Thank you, black guitar. That's what I've always called it, The Black Guitar. Silly, I know, sort of like the Grand Canyon or naming a brown dog Brown Dog.
