NGD - Migaloo

So, I’ve been wanting a Les Paul for a while, and I came across this one a while back but bit the bullet this week.

It’s a Epiphone Jerry Cantrell Les Paul Custom Prophecy. I’ve called it Migaloo - which is the name of the famous white humpback whale but also means “white fella”.

I’m a little in love, my first major purchase.
It’s also the first guitar I have with active pickups. As per normal, I have sore fingertips and a bit of a stiff wrist after 48hrs.

Looks awesome dude! Not sure how famous that whale is outside of SEQ.

Are you into Alice in Chains? I’m a big fan.

@jkahn Like em enough, by no means a super fan.
I was eyeballing a Fender Starcaster - Tom Delong which would be a big fan boy purchase but this guitar just felt the one (for now).

(The Starcaster may still get added)

@LievenDV I have a strat, a part caster strat and a SG type. I like learning bluesy stuff on the strat tbh but I really like a fixed bridge to just slam on.

Being a bit of a gear collector I kinda wanted to have the LP, as the other half to what I consider the big two shapes.

I have plans to buy a Tele kit and build one myself.

I follow that, owning a strat, custom jag, explorer and now a custom flying V in the works :stuck_out_tongue:
You need that iconic representation in your arsenal :wink:

Sweet ride my friend. Enjoy. Love the LPs. And they always look so much better without the scratchplate.
