***Say Hello to Savannah***
This is a 1956 Les Paul with a two piece flame about 7/8" off center.
Serial # 6 8030
7lbs 11oz.
It is equipped with PAFs.







The story has it that the guitar had been sent back to the factory in the 70's and received a new board and inlays:





The name Savannah came from the city I had rondevued with the seller to purchase it:
It is now completely stripped and ready to have e new burst painted on.

I think this thing sounds fantastic.
Here are a few clips with Savannah through my new PALLADIUM SOUND combo:




Savannah / PALLADIUM SOUND clip #1

Savannah / PALLADIUM SOUND clip #2

Savannah / PALLADIUM SOUND clip #3

Savannah / PALLADIUM SOUND clip #4

Other than the pickguard and Pickup rings.
The Jack plate, harness, bridge, Stop tail, Case, Tuners, knobs, strap buttons, switch and tip are from 1959.
The pickups are PAF's from a 1961 SG.

Keep an Eye on the site:
I think they are kicking the amp line off the first of the year.
Palladium Sound

Here are some Tele and Strat clips with the one twelve combo:
