slither

Hey Slither! Thanks for posting in my bike thread. I was wondering if I could get some advice on my first bike? I have one picked out, I just wanted another person's take on it.

Help me with one big final push for the opportunity to record with SLASH!!!!
This is it, final day for fan voting... So please give me one last vote and spread the word to anyone that will listen....

Peter check your PM's mate!!!

No problem, parts are in and I will start building rigs and shipping out next week. Sounds like good timing, things have been falling into place lately.
The weather has been around 10 degrees F and snow, it made it up to 27 yesterday but we got another 8-10 inches of new snow. Made a snow fort for my 7 year old and she was having a blast. Glad to hear all is well with you and yours.
Thanks again, jonesy

Greetings, In have parts on the way for your two rigs so they should ship out later next week. I will give you a heads up when they leave out. Hope all is well with you and yours. Thanks, jonesy

Teeloh, sorry for the late reply. I never look at that thing in the top right-hand corner saying I have messages/notifications as I get so few. My apologies.

Anyway, it's a terrible thing what happened to your 71 GT. How are the repairs going? Your 72 Deluxe sounds a sweet guitar too. My 70 probably started out as a Deluxe, but it was in Standard specs when I bought it. It has full sized humbuckers in it, the neck is a T-top, i haven't been able to check the bridge one yet. The routing looks professionally done though. It has had Grover tuners put on it, and the finish is black, which I think is a re-finish. I keep on meaning to take it to Jacksons Rare Guitars here in Sydney for an appraisal, but it isn't cheap, but I'm curious as to it's value, for insurance, and the year it actually is. The serial number could be 70, 71 or 72, but the pot numbers, from what I can tell that aren't covered by solder date them as very late 69, which is why I think it's a 70 Les Paul.

Cheers, Peter.

The 71 GT I referred to in my April message is the one which arrived broken: see 'Norlin tragedy' which is my thread. I also have a 72 deluxe.

I have a 71 GT on the way. I am not sure how to upload images, or I would show you what the fellow in CN, USA sent me. It shld be here any day now.



I also played a 69 BB (which you can see on the jacksonsrareguitars.com site) but was not in love with it.

How about you?

Hey, saw your post about Norlins, and noticed you are posting from SYD. Greetings from Melb. Tim

Suze Demarchi was incredible. I would fully like to thank Nuno Bettencourt
for ruining their second album, and probably a promising music career.
