Thats mine, a 2005 Tokai Ls150 MIJ

gorgeous Les Paul.

look at that top-carving

Devin49 · 03-17-2009, 09:09 AM

Here's mine, it doesn't compare to any of the excellent guitars I've seen so far, but I may aswell post it. From what I know this is MIJ..but it is also unnamed.

biged999 · 03-17-2009, 09:34 AM

Oh, I had completely forgotten my 81's Tokai LS70GT

atj · 03-17-2009, 10:12 AM

Here's my Navigator les paul. No serial number, with dimarzio's which I think are original. The guy I bought it from in Germany told me he had purchased it at the offical ESB booth at a music trade show in Germany in 1982 or 1983, probably musikmesse or something. Anyways, this guitar is totally awesome besides the blue top, plays like a dream.

Hey Sas,

if you ever feel the need to sell this beauty please keep me on the short list!! I'd buy that in a hearbeat.

Are you sure its an 05 LS-150 though? I only ask because my 05 is an LS-150 and is obviously a flame top, whereas yours seems to be a plain top with a peek-a-boo flame. Just curious.

sasparilla · 03-21-2009, 06:28 AM

Its 100% a 2005 ls150 some of them have lighter flames, but in the right light this flametop is stunnig too.

Make me an offer i cant refuse, but i have to say that this guitar is the best soundig one ive ever had.

Ekoms · 03-21-2009, 02:23 PM

I have a couple of guits I could trade if interested.

email if your interested since you can't pm yet. guitargod35 @ gmail.com

This is my 'new' Orville Les Paul Junior DC ´58-reissue cherry MIJ 1995:

It´s a '1995-to-1958-conversion'. The finish is reliced, just like all the nickel-hardware (Faber alu-wraparound, skrews, tuners and also the strap-pins). I also installed US 500 kOhm-pots and a german 'Tube Amp Doctor'-PIO-cap, ´50s-wired. The guitar sounds awesome! From biting, twangy Tele-Sounds to dark, growling thunder!!
Some more pics in the 'Show your Orville...'-thread.
Here is the updated collection-pic:

I DON´T SELL GUITARS! I´m a MIJ-Les Paul-Junkie, always looking for some 'new' stuff!
What do ya think I 'need' next?

you need an antique white custom

mojotop · 04-15-2009, 10:51 AM

Hey qwank,
you´re right!! A 'cream-vanilla'-coloured LP Custom with nicly tarnished gold-hardware is a great idea. A Greco EG-600 or similar models by Burny, Orville b.G. / Orville...

Meanwhile a visitor came along. A ´56 LP Goldtop (obviously a Burny, there is NO HAEDSTOCK-LOGO on it!!) from my buddy Oli. A brutal Rock´n Roll-Machine with massive & mean P-90 -Tone! (on the Pic right front)
The Edwards ´56 Goldtop on the left is now equipped with a set of custom-wound 'DAVID BARFUSS' ´52-reissue P-90s. This Pickup-Specialist from Germany is making fantastic Humbuckers and Single-coils, available as matched sets or special custom-order. Really superb sounding Pickups!

qwank · 04-15-2009, 10:54 AM

glad i could help. i expect to see pictures within the next 2 weeks. lol!

joebonsai · 04-15-2009, 01:41 PM

Hi mojotop!!
Nice baby, those DC's are REAL rockers!!!
What about a single cut special??

Great collection!!!!

mojotop · 04-15-2009, 03:14 PM

C´mon quank! 2 weeks?

...but, where the hell is my credit-card???
O.K., it´ll take a few days longer...

Hey joebonsai! A few smart germans here! You´re an Edwards-collector? Your Junior DC TV-yellow seems to be one of the factory-reliced models, right? I looked for one a long time, but no chance at all.
The Orville LP Junior is a true bargain from Japan. Excellent quality! The orig.P-90 is a versatile allrounder. Don´t need to change him. The guitar is perfect now!
A Singlecut Special is also a great idea! I think Burny made some. Maybe not easy to find...

joebonsai · 04-15-2009, 03:45 PM

No it's not the reliced, it's lacquer taste series, the reliced is like Keith Richards' Dice with Badass bridge.
Maybe you think it's reliced for PU-damage,but the pickup a Duncan Antiquity is a bit near to the strings or I hit the strings too hard!!
It's my fourth Edwards I had a 335 copy, but it's tooooo big for me!!I'm searching for the Edwards E-LS-90 LT, Les Paul special in TV yellow, but it's like my DC discontinued, so it's a long search!!!
