Simply too good. Let us not forget that everybody's favourite Cocky Guitar Maestro Yngwie J Malmsteen can also be found in other versions...

It's a little known fact that all those guys were upset because he was holding a Strat and they were all Gibson reps.

a 67 huh, and you just gave it to him ?. Man, father to son or not, that is a handesome gesture indeed. I hope he treasures it and treats it with love as all things of such beauty should be treated. My two are prtty new, I got a Mexican made "Fender Standard Strat" at first, put some Fender Hot Noiseless Pickups in it. A couple of years later my father bought me a Fender Highway1 Stratocaster Upgraded for 2006. The neck on the Highway1 had a large 70's headstock which I wished my other Mexi one had, it also had 22 (and not 21) frets, which were jumbo and not medium jumbo. I have since swapped the necks which oddly enough improved both guitars IMO.

Nice axes. My 67 was originally white, with an ebony fingerboard....hardly any finish left on it now. I'll get my son to take a picture of it. Here's one of mine...it's a 67 Guild F-30. Fantastic little guitar with outstanding tone and projection.

Here's my main 12-string. A 1964 Guild F-212. The Indian Larry question mark inlays are done in black mother of pearl. In my humble view there are Guild 12's and then there is averyone else's. This thing has incredible tone and volume that is unreal. Low action with perfect intonation and absolutely no buzzing.

These are both beauties. I have a Kimbara 12 string but it's a pain to play and the strings keep breaking too quickly so it rarely has 12 strings on it. But that is lovely, love those Question Mark inlays too, very cool and different.
