Guest farnsbarns Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 Nice, I love how the binding has yellowed. Very pointy horn (I you'll pardon the expression) on those 80s LPs.
kaleb Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 NICE MAN!!! I"M SO JEALOUS!!!! If that were my guitar, I would replace all the plastic parts with creme plastic, put gold speed knobs on her, some Dunlop 6100 frets, Grover or Schaller tuners with banjo style buttons, triple double creme Dimarzio pups (36th Anniversary PAFs in neck/middle and Super Distortion in bridge), and some tonepros nickel hardware. And I'd plug er' into a good Marshall head (either a JMP 2203, JCM 800 2203, and most likely a Silver Jubilee 2555) and play the song Rocket Ride. Oh, and some delay from a Rocktron Intellifex (blackface version!) in the fx loop and a wah (probably a CAE MC-404 in the yellow mode w. boost on!) for the solo, and a script logo Phase 90 for the rhythm parts. Baby wants it fast, baby wants a blast. She wants a rocket ride, she wants a rocket ride...

If it ain't broke... ;)
Bender 4 Life Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 good score !! what's it gonna push thru the most, Fender/Marshall/Vox/Orange/etc.etc.??
pippy Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 1981!!!!!! She Looks Older! Lovely old thing! Judging by how it looks I bet she's a good 'un. "Mint & Unplayed" examples are sometimes mint for a very good reason... Add the next few chapters in her life story! P.
Twiz Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Woa. That's a sweet Lester. It looks like it's in great shape, but has just enough mojo from all the years gone by. Great stuff.
Namvet Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Any time you can pick up a "new" guitar, its a great day. Congrats & enjoy
