There's a local coffee shop here that sells some old and used guitars... I wonder if it would be a good idea to get him to post some of his items on here.. I know he's got a sweet 78 honey burst gibson in his store for A$3800

Do you guys know if its against the rules or something to do so? I could assist him with taking pics! But I would still have to talk to him about it...

Just an update, it was an 88 model, I've given him the url to these forums, lets see if he pops on board :)

The Les Paul and the Tele are sold. I got a reasonable offer for both so I took it. The market for selling guitars seems ptretty down at the moment.

I ended up taking two grand cash for both. Fabulous price for two good guitars.

In the last two weeks I've bought the Gibson Blueshawk and the 1980 335 S Pro. That's getting towards $5K on guitars when the missus already thought that I had too many guitars. (But what does she know??). The deal is that if I want to live to see xmas at least one more guitar has to go.

I got a 2009 faded cherry Les Paul Junior brand new on ebay about six or seven weeks ago. I haven't really bonded with it - nothing whatsoever wrong with it, it just doesn't do it for me. Especially compared to the 335, the Blueshawk and the 62 reissue SG. So if anyone wants it for $900, with Gibson paperwork, and pro setup done.................of course you can try it first if you can manage the trek to the wilds of Petersham!

Yep, pictures - sorry!!

I've posted pics in other threads about it - this is 100% how it came from Gibson USA. They must have run out of button style tuners, so it has Klusen style Gibson Deluxe tuners on it. All the Juniors that Shire Music had were the same. If that bothers you I have a set of Gibson button style tuners that came from my Special that I'd throw in.

It's probably only had about three or four hours worth of playing time, and I got it set up at Wild Horse guitars about four weeks ago (10 - 52 Rotosounds). It really is 'as new'. It was a bit of an impulse buy, and I just prefer to play my other guitars, simple as that!! It has the Gibson warranty card (matching serial number of course) & manual that come with it. I've even got the original Gibson shipping carton with matching serial number if you want it!!

Damn! That blueshawk looks Gorgeous! The local coffee shop I told you about has an ice tea finish Epiphone (I think it was an Epi) Blueshawk.. The thing is a beauty! He was sellin it for 650 or something.. I got my eyes on acoustics as my next guitar.. so had to pass on it :(

Edit: Is it against forum rules to plug in gumtree.com.au or ebay links for good deals I find on the internet, in this thread?

Aravind, I dont think it would be against forum rules, unless you are advertising for someone else....

Ah so you're the one from Castle Hill!! This is certainly a coincidence! So am I! :thumb:

I saw your ultra! Nice burst :dude:

Unfortunately, can't afford it at the moment, might pop in to have a look sometime, if it doesn't sell like hot cakes!

I was more having a go at Guitar Crazy - I'm astonished that they have stayed in business as long as they have.

Wow, circus. You are a prophet.

They never treated me the way they did you.
