Twiz Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I'm getting my Les Paul Jr Special back today! A luthier friend of mine had it for a couple weeks to fix some burns in the lacquer. The previous owner used one of those cheap stands with the rubber hose that eats through the finish. I'll put up some before and after pics if anybody's interested. Now I just want my work day to go faster so I can go get it an play it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twiz Posted May 14, 2009 Author Share Posted May 14, 2009 Haha. Okay. I'll get those up tonight after work. It's funny, I've always been an SG guy; but I think that this new (used) Jr may be my transition guitar to a Les Paul Standard down the line...

Twiz Posted May 15, 2009 Author Share Posted May 15, 2009 Hey thanks! I'm really happy with it. I think I played it for about 4 hours last night after I got her back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayla Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 That repair does look *really* good. Frightening to think that the damage was caused by a stand designed to hold guitars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
