I am seeing prices of 45k 22k for R9's that granted may be limited editions or unplayed but still seem ridiculous to me. I payed no where near those prices for my 1952 Goldtop. My thought is for 45k you could buy a 53-55 probably unbroken and fairly clean for probably LESS! Why would one pay for...
Hi everyone and Happy Holidays. I am interested in a player grade junior. Headstock repairs, replacement parts are fine. Single or double. TV will be out of my range. Thanks in advance, Brian
Had the pleasure to see Joe B in Hershey last night as a gift from my inlaws. They had my wife young and are a little less than 20 years older than me. They saw Zeppelin, Cream, Alice Cooper to name a few in their prime. They have great music taste. Anyhow, I found myself more fixated on Joe's...
My 58 Junior was compromised when I bought it. It had a headstock repair and the silscreen was lost. I have Greg at BCR putting it on. The one he had was ruined. Anybody have one? Hit me up please. Thanks, Brian
Merry Christmas everyone. This year has had its ups and unfortunately several downs. Please enjoy the holidays with your loved ones and cherish every moment. Thank you for your knowledge and friendship. Many happy hours spent sharing our passion with each other. Peace
Happy Thanksgiving everybody! As I grow older I like it better than Christmas now that all the kids are older and my Father is gone. Food, Beer, Wine and Cowboys football and some sporadic guitar playing mixed in. These are a few of my favorite things. Enjoy and commence with the Cowboy hating I...
I think this was posted before so forgive me if it was. I thought I read somewhere that the Schaller strap locks or the standard button pins are now longer to eliminate the need to dow or glue when installing the locking tuners. Do I Just need to buy new buttons? Thanks in advance, Brian
We just tracked the first song of our new album (yes I am old and still call it an album) I used the Goldtop through a cranked Fender Deluxe Reverb. These P-90's are really incredible. Swear they sound PAF like at times and the amount of control I can get with the tone knobs was fantastic...
Hi Guys,
Been a while since I have posted hope all is well. I am kicking around the idea of possibly selling my 1969 Deluxe. It is routed for humbuckers and refinned cherry burst. It is a fantastic guitar, but the more I play my Junior the more I would like to have another one. I know what I...
Merry Christmas to all of my friends here on the forum. I don't get on here as often as I used to, son started college and I need to sell more cars!! I hope you had a wonderful holiday with your families. Have a safe and Happy New Year. Take care, Brian
Hey Guys,
Not sure I want to do this, but I could use some cash for a different purchase. You can see pics in the vintage forum under NVGD 1954 Junior. Not all original, refin. Original pickup, replacement tuners (original in the case, they suck) replacement tailpiece, replacement harness...
Guys I am sure you have seen my post NGD 1973 Deluxe. Well in that post I said about how I became a cork sniffer with historics. I played my Deluxe last night at our gig and.....WOW!! I also took my 13 R8. I am not saying the Norlin ate the reissue for lunch. But I will say this..it held its...
Hello all,
I am new to this part of the forum. I have been playing Les Pauls since 1983 when I got my first studio. Over the years I have had MANY more. In the early 2000's while selling Gibson I got my first historic and became very much a cork sniffer, not to the point of others (has to be...
Hello,
I have a few pedals I would like to move.
1. Fulltone OCD
2. Boss DD3
3. Boss Compressor Sustainer
I may have the box for the OCD. I know I have the DD3. The compressor is not mint and has been used fairly heavy. The OCD was on my board and has Velcro...
Well If I was computer literate and knew how to post pictures on my own I would have done this in November when I got the guitar back from Kim. Matt will be posting pics a little later. So here we go... 2014 Lemon R8. I bought a washed cherry first from Kurt and was blown away. That guitar was...
I know its a little early, but I will be busy shopping for my wife since I didn't EVEN START YET!! I also have to work a lot the next two days. Just wanted to wish a Merry Christmas to you guys. I appreciate the comradery and friendship that I share with many of you. I look forward to a new year...
