Ricardo's Soul Drifter
Gibson Custom Shop 1968 Les Paul Custom Historic Reissue
How did you find it? One evening about 5 years ago, out of boredom, I spent 3-4 hrs combing through guitars online. Instead of searching for specific brands or models, I sorted by price, trying to find a good deal. I wasn't looking for a specific guitar, I wasn't really into Les Pauls at the time, but I saw it and I knew it was too good of a deal to pass up. When I got it a few weeks later, I made some minor modifications and I fell in love!
Was it a good deal? I've seen this same guitar for up to $10k AUD on Reverb. I got it for under $4k. I know guitar players love that feeling. I want Soul Drifter Guitars to help create that feeling for our community.

Armando’s Soul Drifter
Music Man 2012 StingRay 3 EQ HH Honey Burst
How did you find it? Extensive online research. I knew I wanted a Music Man but at the time, they were hard to come by in Australia without paying huge markups. There was something about the Honey Burst color that I was obsessed with. So I didn’t stop until I found one I could afford. I still don’t see these often, so I know I’ll never part with this one!
Was it a good deal? I found out that Musician’s Friend (relatively unknown here at the time) had started shipping to Australia. With the great exchange rate, I ended up paying over $1000 less than the retail price in local shops.
