Pinefd's R0 Stinger!

LPCollector · 06-23-2008, 10:55 PM

I know i'm not supposed to covet.....but I'm Jonesing for some pics of one of the most beautiful Braz R0 stinger's.....not that there are very many of them. Owned by our very own Pinefd.

Could everyone help me in calling out Mr. Pine?

Whether you have seen this guitar or not........you're in for a treat!

So, PLEASE Mr. Pine. could you please grace us with front and back shots of her?..............Purdy PLEASE?

I think that weekly I'm gonna start calling individuals out for photos of their beauties. So get ready!

LOL :-) Yes let's see some groovy guitars!

jkinnison90 · 06-24-2008, 11:32 AM

I'd like to see pictures as well.

pinefd · 06-24-2008, 12:58 PM

You are one sick dude, Mark...with great timing (as I'm frantically packing to leave on summer vacation)!

Here are a few pics that are already up on the HLPDB. I hope they suffice for now, 'cause that's all I've got and will have for a while.

Indoor shot (with vintage Zebra PAFs and vintage '59 knobs):

Outdoor shot (which brings out a lot more red):

Stinger/SN shot:

sun really makes the flame stunning

jkinnison90 · 06-24-2008, 04:20 PM

Amazing guitar.

BOBBO · 06-24-2008, 04:38 PM

Damn !!! Frank always gets the stunners !!! What's your secret Frank ???

Eggy · 06-24-2008, 05:03 PM

Hoy cow Frank !

I'd be happy to let you choose a guitar for me. You've got a great eye !!

R9. · 06-24-2008, 05:45 PM

Awesome!
Can you explain the serial number, please & thank you?
I get the first line, but I've never seen the second.

delawaregold · 06-24-2008, 09:22 PM

In the second line, MM stands for Music Machine.
Music Machine was the company that commissioned
the Stinger series from Gibson. 60 is the model.
Gibson called it an R0. The 08 would be the Music
Machine serial number, sometimes referred to as the
MM number.

LPCollector · 06-26-2008, 04:02 PM
