Consult a chiropractor before you play a note. They allegedly) give you backache

Put the front pickup on full bass and you get the Clapton 'Woman Tone' straight away.

There isn't too much of a radius on the neck, so they're really good for bending notes.

If you wire the back pickup back to front, you'll probably end up with the guitar (if not you) sounding like Peter Green on 'Need Your Love So Bad'.

I've borrowed real Gibsons for gigs but could never afford one of my own.

I did have an Eko copy which was great (and the only one I've ever seen, let alone played')

I also bought secondhand Antoria copy, finished in gold for 80 quid in the seventies. I still can't remember who I sold it to, (or why.)

That one was a real sweetheart.

More recently, Tanglewood look to be doing some good copies.

Finally, look at the Spinal Tap Video for Nigel Tuffnels appreciation of the instrument.
