JuanCarlosVejar Posted May 1, 2014 Author Posted May 1, 2014 That is correct -- the very early ones had no banner. Thanks Tom. I didn't know the early ones had no bannrr. JC
zombywoof Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 You must have a ton of time on your hands to be able to keep finding these guitars.
JuanCarlosVejar Posted May 1, 2014 Author Posted May 1, 2014 You must have a ton of time on your hands to be able to keep finding these guitars. it kind of bothers me that you would say something like that ... when I try to find this stuff for your and other forum members to enjoy . I'm starting to think I should leave this forum ... because from the looks of it you are not enjoying actually seeing this guitar like I thought you would . JC
ChrisM Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 You must have a ton of time on your hands to be able to keep finding these guitars. Come on..... This guitar appeared on my FaceBook newsfeed a couple days back (FBJ post I think). It would have also taken me all of 2min to post it here. I like what JC does.
j45nick Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 it kind of bothers me that you would say something like that ... when I try to find this stuff for your and other forum members to enjoy . I'm starting to think I should leave this forum ... because from the looks of it you are not enjoying actually seeing this guitar like I thought you would . JC JC, I really like the stuff you post. Just ignore those grouchy old sods that complain. That guitar has a really interesting combination of features, including a bound fretboard. I'd like to know a bit more about it.
retrorod Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Yeah! Who needs Google when you have JuanCarlos......the Forums "search engine" Signed...."a grumpy old curmudgeon" or "sod' if you like! And 'woof' we ALL must have too much time on our hands to be responding to this "drivel" Oh well....it beats watching TV.......IMHO Hope all is well Nick....I have some sailboat questions for ya in a bit...

JuanCarlosVejar Posted May 2, 2014 Author Posted May 2, 2014 Where can I buy that guitar? I love the skunk stripe. JG, The guitar afaik is not for sale it was featured on the fretboard journal facebook and I just thought people here would like to see it. JC
jannusguy2 Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 JG, The guitar afaik is not for sale it was featured on the fretboard journal facebook and I just thought people here would like to see it. Well, I know I liked seeing it. Wish I could buy it! Keep up the good work. JC
slimt Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 If Im not mistakin,, didnt JT say there was a no banner version ? or was that the J45?..
Fullmental Alpinist Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Keep posting JC. Love dem posts! Anyone know the reason for the skunk stripe? My suspicious mind thinks it was to cover up the joint. But surely I am mistaken.... FMA
J-1854Me Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Thanks Tom. I didn't know the early ones had no banner. JC That's a new one to me too. I wonder what the FON is? Fred
jannusguy2 Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Keep posting JC. Love dem posts! Anyone know the reason for the skunk stripe? My suspicious mind thinks it was to cover up the joint. But surely I am mistaken.... FMA Actually, I think you're correct!
jannusguy2 Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 It's available at retrofret in NY. Thanks! Only $27,000.00!
Hogeye Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 The skunk stripe wasn't used to cover up a joint but to hide the fact that there was no joint. Due to the war there was a shortage of spruce and many guitars had three four and five piece tops That made the joints all over the top but never in the middle.
EuroAussie Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Keep ppsting JC, really enjoy your video posts of different Gibsons. Ignore the grumpy whimgers.
blindboygrunt Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Keep ppsting JC, really enjoy your video posts of different Gibsons. Ignore the grumpy whimgers. Hard to do that lately . Keep em coming JC.
Allie Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 JG, The guitar afaik is not for sale it was featured on the fretboard journal facebook and I just thought people here would like to see it. JC This is about the ONLY guitar board I use and I for one am very glad you posted it here...otherwise I'd have missed ever seeing it. I don't use FB, I find it to personal and quite frankly I care less much about everyone elses boring life than I do my own, anyway keep doing what you're doing and do remember what they say about opinions. This is mine.
Fullmental Alpinist Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 The skunk stripe wasn't used to cover up a joint but to hide the fact that there was no joint. I knew there had to be an angle, just didn't know which angle it was. Thanks for setting me straight, Hogeye. FMA
62burst Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Thanks FMA, but the symbolism escapes me. I'd heard of the NoBanner Banners, and recently TVguit (John) had mentioned in a discussion of '46 guitars that there could also be occurrences of Banner headstocks after 1945. Gibson, you know.
