  1. Red wine is tight. I had a Merlot LP Trad Pro II.
  2. I own a D-15M. What is written on the fretboard?
  3. Indeed. At the end of the day a guitar with a headstock repair is just a broken guitar. There are tons out there that aren't.
  4. One is $500 the other is $2000. Play both and you will see and know why the price difference. My brother in law had an Epi. Its worth what he paid for it. I've owned real LP'S. There worth it if you like them. I'm done with electrics but the ones I've had are were good.
  5. Plus it was 600 used. If you can live without binding they are a bargain.
  6. Coil taps a plus. Junk neck break repair a minus and no case another minus. So at a net the whole deal is a minus.
  7. I owned an SG special. I liked it better than the standard I owned.
  8. Well they haven't broke. Yeah I just dipped them a few times in a small vat of LN2 then the just came up to room temp. And like I said they just sound like strings. They look no different maybe a bit less shiny.
  9. I'm just a dumb electrician and I know we make liquid nitrogen in the plant next to the wind tunnel I work at. We inject liquid nitrogen into the tunnel to cool it down to -250 F for a lot of the testing we do on the models of planes and wings and right now there is some model of a rocket they are testing for a planed trip to one of the moons of Jupiter, I think. Whenever a tour comes through they have a dewer (thick plastic bucket) filled with the stuff and we do demos with it. I though it would be cool to dip my strings in it. I've eaten cheese its dipped in liquid nitrogen. There cold and make your breath foggy.
  10. Once we sell the house in Newport News I'm moving to SC.
  11. Can't wait till retirement, working is a drag,
  12. Good call. Test drive it there and if its poo you don't even have to take it out of the store. And if its good to go its a NUGD.
  13. I was stationed at Air Station Barbers Point when I was in the Coast Guard. I lived there 18 months from 92-94. I've been back but to The Big Island when I had to go there to work on a Coast Guard Patrol Boat in Hilo. Man I would love one of those Loco's. I think that is what they are called with the rice, hamburger patty, egg and brown gravy.
  14. I know she didn't. The Beatles broke up The Beatles. No where did I say she did, but they still had to deal with her and have her in the studio like she was part of the band cause she was tied to John's hip. She may be a good person but her music was garbage and her screeching is unbearable. Side 2 of Live Peace In Toronto is what people in Hell get to listen to on their coffee when they are done standing on their head immersed up to their waste in fecal matter. I was not and English major in college, so spelling is not my forte.
  15. In the video the logo is awful.
  16. Why do they all look so pissed their Beatles for f sake. Oh that's right they all had to endure Yoko. I used to have Let It Be on 8-track. I have a Capitol and Apple vinyl LP of it and the 2009 Remastered CD and the CD from when they first got released on CD.
  17. Could be lots of stuff. I helped a friend locate the noise in her LP. Once we tuned the florescent lights off in the up stairs bedroom, noise gone.
  18. The wife did ours we are getting a refund too for state and federal. Last year we got a state refund but owed the feds. More went to the feds so we owed.
  19. Yeah they come and go. When they come the price goes up like a dealer selling to a strung out junkie.
  20. Ask him to take a picture of the back of the headstock where it meets the neck to see if it has the custom logo there. It might have been made in the Custom Shop. My BB King was not a custom, but I think built there.
  21. I think you have to go to a dealer and it is called Made To Measure, if they are still doing that. Gibson I am sure are willing to build you a guitar, but your gonna pay?
  22. Aren't there modeling amp that you can sound like Jimi circa Woodstock with a flip of a switch?
  23. Do you have it and does it have the pots that split coils?
  24. I think you can report a fake directly to Gibson. What it does, or what they do is anybody's guess.
