LEFTY 2003 Music Machine R6 Brazilian Stinger

[Easy Wind]

Very rare Left-Handed 2003 Gibson/Music Machine R6 Brazilian Stinger. This guitar was selected by the original owner over all the other lefty Stingers produced in 2003(only about a handful) for its playability. After playing it myself, I can only agree! It has the Players Profile 60/30 neck; a hybrid of the 59 & 60 necks. Best feeling LP neck I've ever played! And the neck has the beautiful Brazilian rosewood. Cool Dark Back. The Brazilian Les Pauls are among the most collectable of modern guitars, and will continue to appreciate.

Very nice Ice Tea Burst. Only 8.5 lbs. 100% original with all paperwork(both certificates) and case accesories. 9.9/10 condition; 1 small nick on side of headstock. Otherwise like new & virtually unplayed! Hate to sell it: only reason I'm selling is to fund a vintage purchase.

The Stinger Series:
January of 2003 after two very successful runs of Gibson Les Paul guitars, the Music Machine Twenty Fifth Anniversary 1960 Gibson Les Paul Reissue series and the Edwin Wilson series 1959 Gibson Les Paul Reissue Blister Tops, both series were offered on www.guitarsale.com Now Music Machine/ www.guitarsale.com was ready to work with Gibson Custom Art and Historic to bring to the market many of the dream electric guitars and features consumers had been asking for and sometimes even begging for. A common theme, was real looks and vintage tone. Those who had bought a Gibson Les Paul from one of the previous two runs remarked about the tone. Both of the previous runs utilized Edwin’s knowledge and recipe of how to build a Gibson Les Paul with “The Tone.” Many previous buyers of the other runs, like Jon Schwartz and Chuck Shenk wanted all the Edwin magic but with other neck dimensions finish options and wood option offerings among other things. So at the 2003 National Association of Music Merchants winter show I sat down with Edwin Wilson and took the compilation of all the comments and consumer wants, needs and desires mixed those with my experience and Edwin’s experience and we wrote the Stinger Series order. It was a large order and a huge commitment for Connie my wife and me. The order took a good part of the day. After completion of the paper work Edwin said that he would go straight away back to Nashville and start pulling the wood for this special run. First and foremost the Stinger Series commitment was that we would deliver “The Tone” and like Edwin Wilson said, “The Stinger Series custom guitars are all about The TONE!”

Awww man, sweet! I'd love to have one just like that, but I'd be "Bobbit-ed" by the Domestic Purchasing Manager (wife) if I did. The price is well above my current "play" money stash...

If I could find a lefty P-90 LP under, say, $3K, I might be able to swing it, but $7500 US (~$10K Can) would get me killed for sure. Don't get me wrong - I'm not trying to negotiate on THIS particular guitar.
