mcccbln Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Hi folks, I bought a Buckethead Signature 4 weeks ago. The guitar is awesome, but the color is not so cool... After 3 hours playing in daylight - the guitar isn´t still virgin white... now it is vintage white...!! Be carefull with sunlight!!!! But, the sound and playability is still pretty cool! Is there somebody how knows how many signatures of this type are manufractured? Sorry for my bad english. All the best to you from Berlin / Germany Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmurray Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Gibson won't divulge this information but I would guess there were less than 5000 made. Probably much less. The first 50 had different binding and tuners to the remainder. It's a killer guitar, easily the best value Gibson around :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kind of serial-numbers are the 50? What is different on the binding and the tuners? I´ve heard that they build only 500 pieces. 5000 sounds a lot... But, that is really doesn´t matter to me. The guitar sounds great and it is the best Gibson guitar I hold in my hand ever. Kind regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHian Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I know they have a studio version also with a baked maple fretboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11Bravo Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I think I recognize the op's guitar from a youtube video...I noticed it dulled rather quickly..maybe the nitro didn't cure properly before they shipped it out? There was another Buckethead signature les paul on ebay last month that had a yellowish ring on the back of neck from being on a stand. I have one ordered myself from musiciansfriend...it's been on back order but they say they're getting eleven from Gibson at some point. The last update is around March 2012...
