@tom brown you really can't load pictures directly Have to use a image hosting site like imgur.com and post the picture url link

Does a Les Paul Axcess sacrifice tone for playability?
Eracer_Team replied to cliffxburton's topic in Gibson Custom
Listen to some Alex Lifeson then ask you think he lacks tone? -
When have we ever seen prices go down? Government taxes lowered every year Last time Chev or Ford put out a new model yr cheaper than the one before Think not

If I was a "guessing " person, I would suspect Murphy aged products have their nitro significantly dried out compared to the 'normal ' run . It would help with the hazing and checking they do to make a guitar look played in aged. I would think that dryer nitro would also chip easily too. Good luck with your returns

Actually Merc... Brad is right. Rusty's answer that was just above your post: "it sounds pretty decent to be honest, " -

I assume the guy you traded with won't answer and now blocked your phone number -
Certainly will bet a unique finish, Guess wear old clothes it it stops (if it cures)

Re-finishing Lower End Gibsons - Worth Less > Same > More?
Eracer_Team replied to 6th Stringer's topic in Gibson USA
Good job on the refinish. Biggest thing about a refinished guitar that Twang eluded to was why, what they hiding; if I was a buyer Second thing is how you've described it in the ad, and you're not expecting standards price for a guitar that wasn't a standard or custom -
Marauder where made in the late 70's by Norlin/Gibson They did come with bolt on neck's So if someone is calling it a fake might be thinking Gibson does set necks not bolt on. But on certain 'lower' models they did bolt on necks I'm far from an expert, but it looks like other pictures of Marauder's Hopefully a Marauder "expert" will stumble across this thread

If you look close You can see the same grain of the top fretboard through the dark stain. I think they just dark stained the fretboard to sort of make it look like dark binding

The headstock shape reminds me of a Japanese company in the early 80's named Vantage, also Heritage Guitars use a similar headstock. I can't see the whole trussrod cover Does it have 2 or 3 screws
-
Or just put some foam in the pickup hole to counteract the twist pivot done with the spring and single mounting screw

Production day says 213 Google 213 th day of the year and it says July 31 So a Saturday potentially they could work a Saturday. There are more Tell Tail visual clues, fake/real, post pictures and someone can comment. Highly doubtful a 1993 Studio was faked, more common LP custom or Zack Wylde

All the vendors (sweetwater, Long/Mcquade and a few Reverb ads) all say 4 push/pull pots. If the unit looks like a 'real' Gibson then probably the owner swapped out the pots

Completely frustrated with static electricity issues on a 2018 Explorer
Eracer_Team replied to GraceToo's topic in Gibson USA
Electrostatic applications has been employed across multiple segments of industries that need to apply a even level of paint/clear coat. Not all Guitars exhibit the static is it really how the finish is applied? Probably how it interacts with clothes, think all anyone needs to do is regular namptha cleaning and watch what one wears Btw GraceToo no one from Gibson will read this forum, the moderator barely shows here. Torches and pitchforks won't help change an industry -
I'd keep it, there's nothing twisting your arm to sell it. You'll end up regretting it in once your parents pass on 1600 to 2,000 today for rent is a once time safety net that will lead to what will you sell next to pay the rent

I'm guessing an ES137 probably would go for 2500-2800

@JonnyGuitar youd have to plane the fretboard, it's not just the frets that make the radius

@BoSoxBiker the point Bonamassa was trying to make was If you have everything on 10, then you really have nowhere to go but down, Set your tone /volume 5-6 , set your amp up to volume and tone you like. Now you have control at your fingertips
