Went to Sam Ash for boxes and found some ridiculous deals. Got the vintage Epiphone Genesis for $185 out the door and the Squier 51 was $59.

It's been a while since I have seen an Epiphone Genesis. And I think I have only seen one or two at all. So good score. |

Those 51's have awesome fat necks on them. |

This is my third 51 and I'd forgotten how nice they sound stock. I may replace the bridge just because I've got an awesome West German hardtail bridge on my workbench I've been wanting to use forever. Nothing wrong with the stock one. Gotta do something with the pickguard too, either replace it with a pearl or tort one or get a nice wooden one like my last one had.
