    Humbuckers used for ANY position

    Nope, you have to flip the magnet on one pickup to get the OOP. The position of the screws has nothing to do with OOP.

    These were not chambered hence the 9lb 12oz weight. Nice top on yours!

    We don't see many Fadeds sold "locally" (ie: not from Japan) nowadays on ebay and the asking prices are skyrocketing. £3000 for this one, and it's not a best looking one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/394336890814?hash=item5bd04f6fbe:g:4xIAAOSwmz5jdMT9

    Nowadays many Fadeds seem to be sold from Japan. Any clue why?

    And with ABR-1, Aluminum Stop Bar, Hand-wired with Orange Drop Capacitors, Dial Pointers, Grover Rotomatic Tuning Machines with Kidney Buttons (60's Faded) and Gibson Accessory Kit, these stock new Fadeds are better equipped than the previous ones!

    Lucky boy! :D My wife doesn't complain about my guitars, but you somehow can feel more pressure in the air when she silently disagrees about a new one... Not complaining though! I'm lucky too.:D

    Thanks Joe, it was a nice Cherry Faded, not "clowny" looking, but I didn't play it as much as it deserved, and I know it's gonna be played a lot more by the new owner whose only Les Paul is a Studio. He tried it on my Cornell Romany Plus and was impressed by the sound of the Faded compared to...

    Sale day! I've finally decided to thin my Fadeds herd and sold my 2005 Heritage Cherry with 50's neck. Here are the last pictures of it before the sale. She now has another good home where she'll be well taken care of and played :)

    NGD: this 2016 Memphis Historic Gibson Cherry Red ES 335 is the new friend of my best 2005 Standard Faded and 1972 Marshall SB. Another great Gibson, huge clear sound with plenty of rich harmonics! Bigger guitar than the Les Paul but 1Lb lighter.

    Enjoy! Faber stuff is top notch (& Tone Pro's bridges are very good too IMHO.)

    Never seen a Tobacco Faded like this one before, very cool indeed! The price is Custom Shop level though.
