Yeah, that's what I thought. It sounds like a neighborhood, not a guitar company.

She's got potential, if she keeps at it.

One good way to make money is to have someone else do it for you. Although, the name is terrible. They should change that.

All of it.

I can say with 100% certainty that may have been your grandfather's guitar.

There's no such thing. Only what each one of us likes. That's it.

At times I can be prone to exaggeration.

With all due respect, that's not really joined. It's more like loosely attached. Or, placed in close proximity to the body. Maybe this one was meant to go to Pete Townsend. Now that he's getting older he needs the necks set poorly so they're easier to break off.

They're interesting. I've never heard of them before. I can't find them on the Gibson website list of older models. It looks like they have some elements of a reissue, but not all. They have a the long neck tenon and they get the historic tall pickup rings. It's hard to tell but it looks like at least some have the non-historic wider SP2(?) headstock. The ones that I found seem heavy so probably no weight relief. They don't mention hide glue. So basically, it's a Custom Shop LP that's not a historic with some nice features you don't find a USA LP. Not bad. There are a few reviews on the Tube.

yep

Only if you want your clothes to be soft and smell nice.

Shielding?? We don't need no stinkin' shielding.

That's hilarious. His riffage rendered you into a hypnotic state! I suppose one could be hypnotized to do worse things. Nice Guitar!

I just got my phone case. I went with the plain wood. I agree with brad1, it looks better in person. Perfect fit. Very nice. It fits in my phone holster too.

Whoever bought that thing deserves it.

Is it bothering you that much? The only reason I know about it is because you keep posting about it.

We should send that picture to Tom Murphy. No, maybe not. He'd probably die from laughter or a heart attack

That's what my guitars look like after I attempt any type of finish repair. That's why now I just leave them.

I just sold my Tribute T on Reverb and I did come across this hideous thing. Wow. Just wow.

Which thread are you referring to?

The desert has it's own charm and beauty. I've been to the Tuscon area and hiked around Saguaro National Park and the surrounding area. It is really cool to see the dramatic change at the higher elevation at Mt. Lemmon.

Sadly, the answer is no. We're too old for that! Ha. Actually though, that "snow" is not really snow at all. Believe it or not, that's a glacier! I think it's the smallest one in Oregon. Edit: here's a picture of me standing across from it

Living in NoCal you shouldn't have to go that far! You have some good stuff there.

Sorry, but, am I to understand this is a 7 year old guitar that you just purchased and you're asking about problems related to the original factory setup?? Edit: is it NOS or previously owned?
