Megafrog Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 I just rescued this poor little Gibson Marauder from the Cincinnati Guitar Center. This is one ugly mutt as you can see but it is a tremendous player. The serial number on this indicates a 1976 Marauder but the pickguard, pickups etc indicate a 1979 model. Check out the gnarly finish: She could win an ugly dog contest. The stars are stickers that glow in the dark. Tons of personality on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megafrog Posted July 4, 2017 Author Share Posted July 4, 2017 Well today I just procured another Marauder, a 1979, with the chainsaw case. I have been looking for one of these for years and now have gotten 2 in a couple of weeks. This one definitely looks better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twang Gang Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 No accounting for taste huh. Those glow in the dark stars are a hoot, and then the back of the neck being a red color really blends perfectly with the black body and the stars Glad it's a player though - enjoy.

Sometimes you don't rescue the pretty ones. I have no idea what the previous owner thought when they modified this thing. It has a neck from a 76 but the rest (except the stickers) is a 1979. It is a great player and I do like it inspite of how ugly she is. The new one is slightly modified and well used. No funky paint on it. Pictures coming soon.
