THAT phone call..! :p

nemo87 · 01-12-2008, 11:38 AM

you come home after a hard days work/playing.. and the phone rings..

Gibson want to make you a signature guitar.. (hey we can all dream)
What would you have..?

id go with something like this..

buckwild · 01-12-2008, 12:35 PM

I think I'd tell them to get their sh*t together a build a proper Pearly Gates replica.

WildeStarr · 01-12-2008, 12:39 PM

Looks cool! And I see you went with the EMG's!

nemo87 · 01-12-2008, 12:42 PM

get building..

theres the link if anyone wants to have a go..!?

Big Bear · 01-12-2008, 01:00 PM

I'm behind Buckwild on this one, stop giving us those semi-replicas that kinda look like the rev's.... I think gibson is scared that they will fcuk up the replica, thats why they dont do it.

drewbertca · 01-12-2008, 09:00 PM

What I'd do....since they're chambered anyways....

How sweet is that!
Great "chambered" comeback!

drewbertca · 01-12-2008, 09:37 PM

I like my chambered BFG...I have no problem with the idea of a chambered guitar...but Why hide it.....flaunt it.....

brilliant dude! That is a hot guitar. Kinda reminds me of the Gibson Blueshawk

drewbertca · 01-12-2008, 10:02 PM

yeah but with a true Les Paul Shape......I like it....I wish I could have put a Bigsby on it but that cool little app wouldn't let me

Just in case anybody notices...I know the controls are reverse staggered.....It is a "Custom" guitar....I'd do that just so the jig had to be changed....kind of like going to a fast food restaurant and ordering a burger with extra pickles so you know it's fresher.....I'd do it so I knew it was completely custom (at least re-topped) and I wasn't getting a modified production guitar that was close to my vision and changed to match my specs....

coldsteal2 · 01-13-2008, 09:54 AM

sounds cool

jlaw · 01-13-2008, 01:01 PM

How do you get the figure on the wood to appear?

decoy205 · 01-13-2008, 03:54 PM

Here's some things i would do. The first one is a recreation of the rare 70's maple neck/board customs. The second is just a cool standard.

Some of the options are limited on the custom i would like mirrored knobs and possibly black block inlays instead of MOP.

guitarguru · 01-14-2008, 07:58 PM

how do you this?
