Larsongs

I’ve just finished writing songs, performing & recording a new Surf Album with my brothers old High School Surf Band, “The Redondos”.. All original new Original Surf songs that pay Tribute to the Surf Bands of the 60’s… We are putting the Artwork which was done by our old High School friend who is a very talented Photographer and Artist.. We will be packaging it up & sending it out for Pressing CD’s & some Vinyl Albums.. We will release it through CDBaby & their Distribution with ITunes, Amazon & many other Stores.. It has been a long time coming for this Album.. It has fulfilled my brother & his friends dream from long ago.. I’m glad I was invited to play along.. Here is a Video one of my other brothers & a friend made featuring an Instrumental Surf Tune I wrote & performed, “Surftopia”, the title song of the Album…

I’ve always wondered what the Finish actually is.. I have Copy of the original Epiphone Product & Spec Sheet from their old website back Whalen they were in Production but it doesn’t say what was used.. Would Polish or Wax would change the Finish?

Correct.. Though Poly seems like it would be a Gloss finish. Right? I own an IBJL Revolution Casino. It has a Flat Natural Satin or Matte finish..

Agree a 335, 345 or 355 are essential. So are LP Std’s with HB’s & LP Goldtop’s with P90’s.. And Firebird 5’s &7’s.. Add a LP Jr or LP Special with P90’s & you got some serious stuff happening!

I own a Epi Inspired By John Lennon Revolution Casino.. I bought it new & it’s completely stock original.. It has USA Gibson P-90’s, Gold Grover’s, upgraded Electronics, Switchcraft 3 Way Switch & Jack.. It’s really great Guitar! These do not have a Gloss or Semi Gloss Finish. It has Natural Matte Finish.. I didn’t read anything about Nitro finish but I believe it may be.. I’ve always used a dry Microfiber Cloth & wipe it down.. I’ve been curious about the proper way to clean this unique finish as well.

LOL!!!

Really great condition & a real Beauty! I love those old Archtops! Congrats & Enjoy!

I like them all! P90’s are my favorite Pickups. I have a Gibson Les Paul Special with P90’s, an Epiphone USA Casino, a Epiphone Revolution Casino, a 50th Anniv. 1961 RI. Casino all have Gibson USA P90’s.. A great group of fantastic Guitars. Each slightly different sounding but all beautiful.. I also have a MIC Epiphone Casino I recently upgraded with Fralin P-90’s & Mojotone 500k Electronics Pots, Caps with Switchcraft 3 Way Switch & Jack.. It’s Sound is right up there with the others.. They make me happy!

I’m sorry to hear your Wife passed away.. I can’t even imagine.. May that new Guitar bring you some peace & joy.. God Bless.

My condolences to you.. Sorry about your Wifes passing.. You do need to something to ease your pain.. That is a beautiful Guitar!! You can write many songs with it for sure.. Great therapy.

Here’s a Song I wrote called “She’s The One”. I performed & recorded it with “The Phantom Teardrops” from our Album titled “Take Me Back”….

I have not owned a Mahogany Top Guitar but that sure is a pretty Guitar!

I like it! Very nice!

Buc, I enjoyed that a lot.. Good Song & cool Video..

I read somewhere Jimi had problems with that Flying V Guitar.. They aren’t the easiest Guitar to hold standing or sitting.. Whereas a Strat is a very comfortable Guitar sitting or standing.. Both have long been associated mostly with Fender Strats… Clapton with Martin Acoustics..
