I wish they made Tribute versions of the Esapada. Sigh.

Great suggestion Dan! :thumbup:

Could see some more G&L converts with a cool guitar like this in Tribby line.

These Espada's look like they would go one notch higher in scratching my "Z-2 itch"

The only mod I would put on this guitar would be to drop a PTB circuit over each pup separately (rather than over the whole circuit) so that I could dial in each pup. If there was enough room in the cavity to do so. I'd need push/pulls on the tone controls low pass filter on the down, and high pass on the up.

I think that'd give me some serious dial-in-the-tone Pow-wah!

I have a crush on these guitars.
