I figured that's why you did it but the pots are very different to normal centralab pots, that's why I asked the question/pointed out they were from a different guitar.

At least I think they're stereo 345/355 pots!

Re: The Official Vintage Les Paul Parts Thread !!!

Can you verify if a 1952 and 1953 GT pickguard are the same or is the 52' different on mounting to the neck distance.

Re: The Official Vintage Les Paul Parts Thread !!!

Hello!

I tried many websites to find serial number association to a date, but none would recognize this number. Can you help me with this.
I want to find out information so I can ultimately sell this instrument.

611847
Les Paul Custom
Black

Thank you!

Re: The Official Vintage Les Paul Parts Thread !!!

Those r/t rings are actually incorrect, they're later.
Both type burst rings were printed in a dull gold ink that looks like paint.
The earlier ones have narrower type, the later ones more rounded, but different from the ones in this pic.

The shinier metallic printing is from later iterations-
