Her are a few wide angle pics of my new happy place. The leather chair and ottoman were a retirement gift from my wife. I’m happy as a clam in retirement and in my new house with my amazing wife…finally!
Not a Les Paul, but a PRS DGT SE, a retirement gift to myself. I absolutely love it, and it’s getting the most playing time right now. And that’s coming from a hardcore Strat guy! I had an Epiphone Les Paul for a few years. It was a nice guitar, but I never really bonded with it and moved it on. The DGT SE is same type of guitar - two humbuckers, set neck, mahogany body, and maple cap. It’s amazing. The pickups sound phenomenal and have a really usable coil tap. The tremolo is an added bonus! Currently I’ve got my tube amp set for a really throat overdrive when the volumes on the DGT are all the way up. The guitar cleans up beautifully with the volume rolled off, so that’s where I leave it. When I want some growl, I just turn up the volume. It’s fantastic!
I would very much be down for that! I do need a rosewood neck Tele.
The first time I was all alone in the house, I cranked the tube amp up! I’d never done that before because I lived in a townhouse. It was glorious!Thegreyman wrote: ↑Sat Aug 31, 2024 7:08 am A fantastic looking mancave where you can crank the amp up to 11!
Thanks Steve, I really appreciate that!Amor Vincit Omnia wrote: ↑Sat Aug 31, 2024 8:15 am @jkbarnes As a friend on another social media platform, it’s been a joy to see what you have both achieved over the summer. It’s beautiful and says much about you both.![]()

You just need a proper guitar now, Drew.![]()
That bookcase is in the living room, where the turntable is. There was only so much room in here. As it is, I couldn’t even get all my books in here.
Funny you mention Keef. I came across a company that sells brass bridges and saddles that are a match for what he has on his Tele! I wasn’t in the market for those however, as I was actually looking for a bridge and saddles like Andy Summers has on his Tele. I want to rework mine into a bit of an homage to that one.
