[kidtwist]

As usual I wasn't planning on buying anything but this should up nearby and I couldn't resist once I'd tried it. 8.76 pounds.

Is that from the Sweetwater limited from 2014?

I just saw one of these in the local GC last week. I was surprised though, that they did a fairly decent job on the checking, but all the hardware is shiny brand new?

 

[Sct13]

My cc#7 was like that...

but it was fun getting aged parts to match the vibe...or just let the wear on their own...

 

[BigJim]

Love those, great axe!

Ahh, I believe I now own that particular Shanks. The hardware looks the part for sure!

I think those had late '60s style metal tuning keys for some reason. These seem more period-correct.

No, this is a new 2020 one from Guitar Center. I had one of those Sweetwater '54 Les Paul Customs though. I sold it a year or two back and then regretted it, thus I'm glad to find this one.
