Iggo my friend in regards to your post

I wished we lived closer we could jam. I just checked out reverb.com and under navigator electric guitar they have two Les Paul’s in 1800$ range and two strats around grand.

In no way am I trying to offend Gibson or Strat owners. But navigators are awesome guitars. Hand crafted in Japan I own one Les Paul navigator bought used and it is tone beast.

Nitro finish
Hide glue
Long tenon
Beefy 59 neck
Mahogany body
Brazilian fretboard

Players have been arguing these points apples and oranges for years so it’s personal choice. Do you play a finish or glue no but does it effect tone maybe. Anymore I joke and give up as I have hearing aid.

iggo you get what you want but all I’m saying is. In 85 when I bought my first mij tokai for like 250$ used I was hooked on mij guitars same quality most of them Orville greco tokai as Gibson and fender.
