Re: '90s MIK Epi Sorrento
My dad had one just like yours, it was really well constructed, and sounded awesome, but he too passed it on due to the narrow nut width. Shame really.MrFingers wrote:I had the same one, but in traditional sunburst. Did let it go because of the overly narrow neck, but the sound... THE SOUND!!! Easily one of the best sounding guitars I ever had in my possession (and thing is: I'm not really a fan of the P90). Does yours also have the wrong name on the soundhole badge? Mine said Sorento (with 1 R).
(oh, and don't do Bigsby, a friend of mine has one that came with a factory Bigsby, it totally kills the sheer resonance of the guitar, making it sound like a muffled, damp squib.
