The Guitars of OKen Part II

Guitar # 9 The Gibson Voodoo SG

Goddammit...I had this one for a long time. It was freaking GORGEOUS! It sounded amazing and with the addition of locking tuners, it stayed it tune really well, which for an SG is next to IMPOSSIBLE! Many, Many gigs/rehearsals with this beauty. I traded it in with another guitar to get a large amp..which I traded in later anyway. This was during my OCD Guitar Acquisition Phase. It's a thing...look it up (don't) If I had the undo button this is DEFINITELY one I would get back. Where's that sharp knife I keep around?

She's a looker....

Guitar #10 Gibson Les Paul Mahogany

Les Pauls are goddamn expensive. A 2015 Les Paul Standard is almost $4000 bucks!
This was under $1000, so I had the cash at the time and bought it. It was my other go-to axe! It started to need more and more work, so I let it go, let it go...couldn't hold it back any..(is smacked in the face by 6 random people)...sorry...

Those were the first 10 I owned and they were long players. I then went thru a shitload of axes starting around 2008 until now. These are all gone now. Chronology is out the window...let's start with the acoustics...

11- The Ovation Celebrity Elite
Sounded great, but I like a medium shell (thickness)

12. The Ovation celebrity
Medium shell, didn't like it

13. The Fender Stratacoustic (first time around)
Yep, some of these I bought, got rid of, and bought the same model again. Know why? Only a clinical Psychiatrist can answer.  It sounds weird, but it's easy to play and I like the neck.

I know, YOU CAN'T WAIT FOR MORE!!!!!! Never fear, stay tuned for The Guitars of OKen Part III/Basses and smaller brands!
