Yogi_Sizzle Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Just put one of these on lay away. Found a shop that not only had 1 but actually had 2 of them. I got to play them both ( Natural and sunburst) and I ended up choosing the sunburst as it was a bit lighter and I liked the way it was setup a bit better. I love minihumbuckers as I also own a 78 Les Paul Deluxe pro with the p90s swapped for 70s deluxe minihums, a 62 ri Sheraton, and a 72 ES 325. I can't wait to get her off of lay away in about a month or so. Who all here owns one? I've been reading old threads and I know CB has one like mine. Does anybody know how many are out there? https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-_e2YUg5DkZM/VGYE-dpToKI/AAAAAAAACHI/BbhTd_UdYx0/w1118-h629-no/14%2B-%2B14 https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-wUirNX0DtBc/VGYE-bwtpCI/AAAAAAAACH4/7T_X0zM87rM/w393-h699-no/14%2B-%2B15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobouz Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 My suburst JLH Sheraton has the Frequensator, and it is from the first year (2000). It has a signed blue label with JLH's photo, "The Boogie Man" on the pickguard, a different serial number sequence and "John Lee Hooker" on the truss rod cover. The one you are purchasing with the white labeled number (over the blue label) is most likely from when these guitars were closed out by MF at $999. If only I'd had the wisdom to buy a truckload at that time! Congrats - you will love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly don't! (I added the "Imperial" tuner buttons myself, just 'cause I like them. There was nothing wrong, with the original's) CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only I'd had the wisdom to buy a truckload at that time! Congrats - you will love it! Yeah I got that much from my google searches of this forum and Mylespaul.com . I got a pretty good deal on it as I only paid 950, which seems to be less than these and the elitist run on ebay. I've cleared out a space on the wall of fame for her :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
