Cool man, sounds good to me. Those goldtops are nice, it looks like it has a soapbar neck pickup with a standard ring in the pic.

I currently only have one old guitar that I'd left in the closet for a decade or more.. After my heart attack, I just had to clean it up and play again. Was kind of odd, but didnt question it. It's a '74 Ibanez Les Paul copy, a true "lawsuit" guitar so it's a little special. Was white when new, aged a nice cream color now. Original neck pickup and a period super distortion for the bridge. It's never been refretted so the frets are almost imaginary, makes it simple to play but tricky to bend with the frets so worn and low. Has some crap tuning pegs on it, but considering I snapped it up for $100 I had in my pocket from a singer about to pawn it in the mid 80's.. damn good deal hehe.

One of my brothers has a floyd rose speedloader. He and a bunch of others picked them up from MF when they were on clearance. He tells me once it was initially setup and he resolved a slightly loose trem arm with a bit of tape, he can't knock it out of tune when he tries.

I remember when those warlocks came out, I wanted one but went for an ibanez roadstar instead. Wish I still had all my old guitars. My favorite was a mid 69's Epiphone. Just played unreal and had so many sweet spots. Was neck heavy, but no biggy. Here's one that looks identical: http://www.gbase.com/Stores/Gear/Gea...x?Item=1554191
If you see one of those in a pawnshop, get it. For me! hehe
