BoyVader Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Finally got round to taking a few shots of the new girl...Just a 2010 Trad Std.. and a rimburst etc ..but I kind of liked the 'tiger' type top...Every shot you take is different because the light changes the way these tops look so much...anyway, hope you like..it's Iced Tea by the way... And a couple of 'Naked' shots...I think she looks a bit vintage in these... This shows the tiger stipes nicely.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocketman Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Congrats! That top looks like a AAA top. Great looking guitar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pippy Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Very nice. I like how it's actually quite a subtle flame and it's not bookmatched. I find those tops more interesting to look at. Enjoy! P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyGibson Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 It's not "just" a 2010 Trad. Std. That would be like introducing your wife or girlfriend to others as, "this is just my wife, hair, legs, arms etc...". Gorgeous guitar by the way. Congratulations.

davidl Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 You are too modest. That is beautiful. Love the nudie shots. I much prefer the look without the pickguard. Display that skin. Congrats. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparky scott 29 Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Iced tea, really.. I do like that exact color, flaming, all of it is exactly what I would want... If I knew I could get one identical, I would have it on order... I love it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FAT BOY Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Very nice. I like that last shot,it really shows the color well. Congrats... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoyVader Posted November 14, 2010 Author Share Posted November 14, 2010 Thanks for all the kind words guy's...the only reason I put "Just a 2010 Std Trad" was that on other LP sites that shall remain nameless, unless you are posting R8,9's or custom rarities, you can get the odd 'I don't like rimburst's' etc.. I love her whatever but it's nice too get good comments. I was going to keep her "nude' ie. no pickguard, but after looking at the scuff marks on my SG's pickguard!! I will probably have to keep it on...for a while at least..then maybe I'll release the 'tiger'.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyGibson Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 I was just kidding. I've actually got the same one, just a year older. I just changed the knobs and added pointers. Maybe I need to name her too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoyVader Posted November 14, 2010 Author Share Posted November 14, 2010 Paul J...I got her from Sky music in Melbourne here in Australia... www.gibson-guitars.com.au I live in Sydney, but they took a few photo's of different tops on their Standards and Trads and emailed them to me. I then choose the one I liked the most.. Great service, and they also said if I wasn't happy with it once I received it, I could pay $50 for the shipping and they would sent me another one. You cant get much better than that...way better service than my local store who said "pay up front, we order it and you get it as is"...this is the store that has a $7000 custom for sale with "shocking" binding...which according to the guitar manager is "a gibson finish"...lol So went with Sky music....Got a great price too..very happy.. And BillyG..yeah, you need to name her!...treat her nice, buy her a truss rod cover with her name on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
