  1. This is what I was referring to when I said “hopefully a lot less than 1/8”. Not referring to structural integrity but aware that 1/8” would be an obscenely thick fretboard binding
  2. It’s hopefully a lot less than 1/8” but keep in mind even 1/16” is massive when you’re trying to transition under a gloss finish
  3. Yeah the good thing is that it has that whole end of the neck pocket covered with binding which is overlapped by the heel. Working in that area is gonna be miserable and highly prone to wonkiness though… especially if you’re planning to use abrasives to do the whole thing Depending on which glue they used I’d be highly tempted to just replace the whole fretboard
  4. Have you run your idea by anyone who you think understands the neck joint?
  5. That’s no good either bill but I gotta go to work
  6. Gonna be a nasty transition at the neck/body joint at best
  7. Can you get these over there? https://preval.com what are you gonna paint?
  8. Do these have the Moog electronics? Cool looking guitars
  9. Duane I believe you live in SoCal and believe me we are blessed with weather lol
  10. The condition looks good enough from my house. I don’t think I could keep a guitar looking that good for that long to be honest. Then again pics can lie
  11. One thing that makes me want Rabs to get this is that it isn’t a traditional LP and it probably isn’t all made out of mahogany with maple cap
  12. Yep I was gonna say.. there are only 4 springs on a Les Paul so it shouldn’t be hard to track down if that’s the problem. Everything JDGM said is spot on. I’d add that none of this has anything to do with QC so lighten up on that poor guy lol
  13. Is the ABR-1 rattling or is it just a screw or something you can tighten down? Maybe a pickguard screw or something
  14. We’re on a plane flying over the middle of the ocean and the pilot suddenly dies. Good thing is planes have been around for a long time so anyone else in the plane will easily bring us to safety
  15. Probably not plug and play on an SG either. If it’s a batwing you’d need to do some routing and get a new pickguard. If it’s a half guard you’re looking at a P-94 or real ugly job
  16. I think it’s probably more the opposite. By limiting the amount of data that the server is hosting the forum can sustain more members for a longer period of time.
  17. JDGM for what it’s worth I really enjoy looping on a Boss DD-7. It has more headroom than most loopers and the delay itself is excellent
  18. This looks like the kind that came on some Epiphones https://reverb.com/p/epiphone-olympic-with-maestro-1963-1970
  19. Request fingerprints from the reverb seller and run a cross analysis on that biatch 🧐
  20. I recommend Wildwood guitars if you’re buying online in the US. I’m a very satisfied customer
  21. Hope it all works out Rabs!! This thing is insanely beautiful
  22. Anyway there may have been a missed opportunity to be more woke. Instead of worrying about the spam bot’s nonexistent aunt, we could complain that the spam bot’s sole purpose is to profit off people who suffer from mental disorders (anxiety is not a disease)
  23. I decided earlier today that your name stands for “russ trod cover” One thing that to me suggests it’s actually vintage is the small roundover. All the double cut reissues I’ve seen tend to have the big roundover but I could of course be wrong. It would be in really good shape if it’s original especially the Les Paul model silkscreen which is above the clear coat.. it looks like there might be a few dings through the finish on the top near the lower strap button to me it really screams vintage or high end custom shop in either case it’s a guitar worth some money and worth maintaining
