Digging a 381
So here's that 381 I promised to post about. Snagged it from a local GC, a 2001 in mint condition. It's my first 381 and the German carve is much more comfortable than I expected.

Mmm, daddy likes. "Look'it the flaime on 'at one. It's just perfect" (as Nigel Tufnel might say).
Howzabout some gold 'guards & TRC for it? Oven knobs too. Oh yeah.

Ooh, sweet snag there, Jason! What was the first thing you played on it? (If it's a Steppenwolf wong, I'll be shocked!
)
Re: Digging a 381
Nope, no Steppenwolf wongs, sangs, wangs, or anything like that!!!!
Sadly enough, while trying it out I think the first thing I did was just play every string on every fret. That's acid test #1.

I've played a few Steppewolf wangs in my day. At least they said they were in Steppenwolf...

Nice score, Jason. GC does turn out some deals every once in awhile.
Cheers,

Gorgeous!
Interesting feature: the horns are equally pointy on both of our 381s, but the bottom horn on your `01 is longer than on mine.
