1967 Epiphone Caballero .... not unlike Bytor's B-25, but mahogany construction and other differences. Great little blues-er!

The J185 has always been my favourite of your Crew.
I have a real little sleeper here in the form of my Taylor.....not quite in the same "Prestigious" League admittedly......but I adore it.

My real "Dream" Acoustic is in the arms of another ...at the moment.... but given time and patience I WILL steal her away from him :smoke:

A 1970's Fylde Caliban.
