After selling all my stuff in the Classifieds section, I've decided to buy this:

I pick it up in a couple hours...quite excited!

Nice guitar man, i'd want one of these but 335 style guitars dwarf me.

Very Nice!

Is that a Supernova?

I got a Sheraton and really love it. Someday I hope to have a Riv & Casino to round everything out!

Awesome color too.

I'm not sure...I just know it's some sort of Riviera. Can't find a lot of info about it. I think it was some limited edition from around 10 years ago.

It's been a long time on humbuckers for me so I'm not completely sold on that...but I think it'll work nicely for what I want it for.

Yah, I have no idea but I thought the Supernova came in that color but who knows and who cares if it plays and sounds good....cause it sure looks great.

**Edit: Sorry, just saw photos that show 'nova inlays slit.

Yeah, I'm pretty stoked. A few years back I picked up an Epiphone Casino in the same color from GC. I quickly had buyer's remorse and took it back. Always regretted it.

what's that like, post-buyers remorse sale remorse?

god knows. all i know is it's lovely.

but get some p90s in thar! i've always wanted a riviera with p90s.

It's the worst. First and last time that's ever happened.

P90s are a definite possibility.

major boaneer if bigsby went goodbye.

not on that guitar, that things pure fuckin toan no tremmy pls

EDIT: but if you do change the pickups, WOULD totally buy neck p.up.

There's an Epi Casino on SF craigslist that I mistook for that one. Same color and everything, but it's "Upgraded" so the guy's asking way too much ($900 for added gibson pups and a bigsby)

i love that rivera. it's similar to the Jorma Kaukonen rivera, but different colour and chrome hardware. i'd love a bigsby equipped semi hollow like that.

The Supernova has the neck profile of a Casino, fretboard inlays of a ES 345 and the pickup selector position of a Les Paul. The pickups seem a little hotter then the Epi Dots. Supernovas are out of production.

P94's are an excellent option. It's means no routing because they are basically humbucker sized P90's. I was thinking of doing the same to my Supernova.
