  1. sorry about the Dates i meant to put 1959 to 1971 end of production, double cutaways started in 1961

  2. Like jim says who are you to believe,everyone must b talk-n out there butt -except- him

  3. Manny i was just stating that you model shown could be earlier than 60,and on the mid 60s to 61 it had seem to me i read somewhere that they had changed style in mid 60s kinda like you could get a new 66 mustang while it is still 65,I had got my info from Gibson Melody Maker- Wikipedia and not from the gibsonvintage.com site where ever that is and accord-n to Wiki MELODY MAKER started in 1959

  4. Mr Toner S/G started in 1970 when it replaced the

    gibson melody maker if you do not knoe the date there is several ways to.Gibson has a site GIBSON daters project that you can google this will tell you how to date serial no.on back of head stock another way is to remove the back cover containing volume/tone pods they will have a code no.stamped Guitologist on youtube could give some hints?

  5. try rosa string works on youtube he has made several one of a kind guitars i'm sure he has a contact section on his site?

  6. Austin sorry bout that is was try-n to find pics on the brief description block your friend that said J-50 is most likely right as of what to do

  8. Gasoline flame,check out my post EAR POPPER about Melody Makers,i have had two of them and did a lot of research on this subject there seems 2-b-not a lot of melody makers in this cat.

  9. rfori i would go with a replace neck deal say from warmoth or your guitar guy or try and take it on yourself to save money Rosa string works on youtube shows you how to plus remov-n all the not suppose-2-b-there screws and remove-n fret board could wind up cost-n more than the neck replacment

  10. Lizzard dude do you have these pics posted with your description page?

  11. sorry about your dad mine also just passed a year back you need to list a little bit more info on subject ACOUSTIC/ELECTRIC-single/double cutaway/etc.the best way is to take a pic and post it in your description area that way others can look

  12. F/E on regaurds to your S/G look inside where the volume/tone pods are,on back of cap there should (b) a stamped no.in code it has the date they where installed then contact GUITOLOGIST on youtube he can tell you how to decipher

  13. if it has double cutaway and looks like a S/G i would say its in the 70s if its shaped like a les paul but thin in depth it could go back to the mid to late 50s (open back control panel and look at the backs of the volume or tone pods there is awalys is a stamped no. in code for the date they was installed unless those have been changed 2,a good person to contact on youtube is guitologist
