Hi guys, am looking for a low serial or a very nicely figured one of these. If anyone has one or knows of anywhere that I can find one, please let me know. Any advice would also be much appreciated.

Good luck with your search. They are fine guitars. I got mine a year ago after 6 months of searching everyday. They seem to be coming up less and less, but remain vigilant and it will happen. Drop a pm to Dangerdog that you are looking for one. He can keep his eyes peeled. He is online as Meestursparkle. Grey guy based in japan.

Thanks for this and that's a good idea. I know the guy and will email him now. Do you have any pics of yours? I have found a nice low one between 010 and 016 but we are having problems agreeing on price, I will keep you posted.

Here's my NGD thread. I have changes the pickups to '59 PAF neck and Pat sticker T-top bridge. Four sets of Grovers later I finally got a set of 70's gold USA grovers to truly make it more authentic. Of course mine was a player so I had no qualms about molding it. The lowest serial # I have seen is 103 which was Scooters. Mine is 301. Good luck!

Thanks for posting this but I can't see it here for some reason?

Hey Walman,good luck finding the right one for you!:) After owning several of them,I can safely say that they're probably the best ones the Custom Shop ever made.And I'd love to see some pics of the one you found with a S/N between 010-016...(don't worry,I've already found mine and I'm not in the market for one! :thumb:) The lowest I've seen so far,was #66 if I remember correctly and I'm very curious seeing such an early S/N example...

One day I'll convince you to sell me your JPP250. I missed out on it last January! Finding the right JPP is tough but well worth work it takes.

Thanks TG, I'm sure they're all great guitars. I can't post the pictures yet as I am currently negotiating with the owner and don't want to upset him by posting anything here, but I will say it is extremely close to the Number One and was hand picked by him at launch. I wil know next week and if it works out I will post the pics here and on the JPP appreciation thread.

As far as low numbers is concerned today I spoke with the owner of 001 and although he told me he wasn't interested in selling at this time, he would give me first refusal should that time arise so I may one day have a surprise for you guys.

I would love to see the top on that one. I can't imagine how much it must be.
