I'm at a bit of a crossroads guitar-wise. I currently have 5 guitars (discluding my Taylor acoustic), and I'm trying to get down to 1. I could do with getting some space back, and the injection of funds into my poor bank account. Also, it would be nice if I could put all of my hours into just melding with the one guitar rather than bouncing back and forth. Now, culling the 1st three is easy........ I have a cheapo strat that is pretty much worthless, a cheapo Vintage AFD Les Paul, and an American Deluxe Strat that I just don't really like as it just sounds too thin. Then the dilemma kicks in...........
I should point out that I am left-handed, so good guitars don't come around very often.
Now, I have the best playing guitar I have ever owned, it has a neck like butter, feels great and sounds terrific. It is a Wolfgang EVH Special, MIJ. I cannot say enough good things about it. Although pretty common, and not very expensive, I'd struggle to replace it and find another lefty.
My other guitar doesn't feel, play or sound quite as good as the EVH, although that's not to say it's bad. It's not, it's great, but the EVH is a tough act to follow. The thing is, my other guitar is a Tokai LS1000, a 25th Anniversay Les Paul. There were only 25 left-handers made worldwide, and I have number 1 of the production run!! So, if I let that one go I'll never, ever replace it.
Just totally stuck for ideas. I just know that sellers remorse will kick in regardless of which one goes of either the Tokai or EVH. But I'm resolute that I want to get down to one electric. Any thoughts/advice anyone?
