rcscruff Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Here is some info on the 2002 anniversary. http://www.lespaulforum.com/slubanniv/sanniver.html Unfortunately it doesn't look like yours is an anniversary model. Email customer service with pics and a serial number. They can definitely tell you which model and which pickups you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swleary Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Forsure email and call Gibson customer service and if you can,post some more pics. Something doesn't look right to me, could be just the picture though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meriwether Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 Thanks for your replies guys No it doesn't look like "Anniversary model" According to the link, only customshop made those models in 2002. Mine for sure isn't made from custom shop. I think now what I have is a Gibson Standard from 2002 with the burst bucker V alnico pickups. My 1976 3-pickup gold hardware custom is surely worth more that a standard from 2002 right? Everything including frets and pods and all is original...

Everything including frets and pods and all is original... Regards Nik Just a guestimate but I would expect the custom would be worth near double the standard. About $2000 for a 2000s standard, while $3600 for a 1970s custom, is the going rate in shops near me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meriwether Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 Ok rcscruff. I read you loud and clear. I'll revoke the deal tomorrow. Thanks a bunch for your help. I'll post again soon. Hopefully with a good outcome :) Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
