After this many black limba + P-90 Thorns to come around, I'm always confident that it's
gonna be a winner. It's so proven now, that it's almost predictable how it's gonna sound.
However, this Thorn features a pickup combo not yet used and wow, what a combo.
The Lollars in the neck have way more glassiness than I remember in other 3 P-90 Thorns.
Very Strat-like in the #2 position, I am absolutely in love with this position on this
guitar. Then there is the Fillmore in the bridge...boom! Yeah, flick it back and put the
pedal to the metal. I love it almost as much.
Bill, I hope the long wait was worth it. I must admit that saying I was
"relieved" that it turned out as cool as it did is an understatement to say the
least.
This guitar just cooks and I couldn't be happier that it's yours!
Enjoy and thanks as always,
Ron
