I just got the Ovation cc057 the other day. I've always wanted an acoustic and it was a good price for a discontinued model. Man, that thing makes my fingers sore! I need to get a DVD to learn how to fingerpick correctly though. I suck at it mostly.

The Epi Les Paul Custom I've had for 10 years now. I've been through Strats and Ibanezes, but always come back to the LP. It plays better than a lot of the Gibson LP's that I've messed with. Mine has the stock pickup at the neck, but the bridge pu has been replaced with a DiMarzio ToneZone and I put a phase splitter pot on it also.

The 5150 combo is a beast of an amp. Thing weighs about 100lbs. I got it when my brother and I were gigging years ago. Our other guitar player had a Marshall JCM900 with a 4x12 and this thing just blew it away, especially in the bass dept. If I hooked it up to a 4x12 cab so I was running 6 12's it was just awesome. Make the hair on your head move around. It's got a great clean tone, too though. Much better than the 5150 heads. They voiced the combo a little warmer for that reason. The JJ's I put in it were also picked for a warmer sound.
