My '04 '56 Goldtop
Ignore the girly wallpaper, i was at my mom's. lol.
Anyway, I sold my Gibson GOTW that had the cracked neck, got this beauty, a valve jr. and a case and pocketed the difference. Now I just need a vintage sunburst custom, a white custom, and my current GAS will be sedated. ![]() ![]() ^ was the night I got back from Dexter with it, had some case fuzz stuck in the tuners, lol. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I've since put the pickguard back on... the bridge pup just looked waaaay to high without it.

Re: My '04 '56 Goldtop
I can't remember the factory, i know its a MIK. I did the lookup just to see the year on it and I can't remember anything else.

Re: My '04 '56 Goldtop
It's all about preference man. I myself like my own guitar without the pickguard.
Take some pics of her with the pickguard on!

Re: My '04 '56 Goldtop
So you weren't sure about being indecisive? I'm not sure how I feel about that.

I'm always sure, but never certain.

Re: My '04 '56 Goldtop
That's a beauty! GAS is never satisfied, it just backs off its intensity a little bit after getting new gear.
Oh yeah, I was thinking about being decisive today, but I've decided put it off until tomorrow after I give up procrastinating. Maybe.
