05hummer,

Not to get off the subject of your fine looking collection of Norlins, but I got a question.

Dont have the identification #, but a guy on ebay is selling a 1975 Deluxe.
It's got full size humbuckers, says it was ordered from the factory that way.
trc says Standard. It's a very nice looking axe. Says Deluxe on the back of the headstock. anything?

Im not really sure about the 75s.. Mine only has the serial # and made in usa on the back of the headstrock... All of the ones ive seen from the 70s were routed after the fact..Do you have a link to the auction, i cant seem to find it on e-bay...

Here it is...GIBSON LES PAUL STANDARD DELUXE 1975 NEAR MINT HANG TAG - eBay (item 330269405599 end time Sep-15-08 20:00:00 PDT)

Odd that it says Deluxe and Standard. Looks exactly like mine, but I have the trans tenon and stamped serial on mahogany neck.

Looks to have been played? It's been refretted,....poorly.

this is it, hope I transfered it correctly.

I was going to bid on it, then, decided the point of wanting a Deluxe was the mini humbuckers, so, now it's up in the air.

 

[Boleskinehouse]

Not fair! That's about 10,000 lbs. of love!

Hey, heavy.. er.. Les Pauls need lovin too...

I would pass on that one.. Csharp is right about the frets, they just don't look right to me either... Wait and find a deluxe with mini humbuckers, you wont be disapointed...
