It's sort of nice to know that you bought the guitar early enough in the companies history that Leo might have been around watching it get made. About 2 years ago I took it to a professional to have the frets looked after and to get it setup and intonated. The guitar plays wonderfully. It is a G&L though, so it certainly has it's own tone. Not a Strat, but in the same area. It can scream when it needs too. Today I pick up a Les Paul and it feels so strange. I played an SG the other day that I really liked. I haven't tried too many of the new brands. I still intend to get an old Rickenbacker one of these days, like George played, and some day an Alembic bass probably. Lots of great instruments out there. Cheers, Mark
