Marcel's ES-1GT Linden vintage

So... I have committed myself to my second PBG kit... an ES-1GT.

I have always loved the tones of the ES-335 and all its kin, so this will be my chance to own and pay a kind of homage to both the guitar and the wood it is made from. In this case is Basswood which is also known as Linden which happens to also be my surname hence this build will be at me in multiple ways....

I also ordered a few extra bits to go with it, so hopefully it will all come together with a sweetness I certainly desire it to have ... ;-)

Just for info ... my inspiration for this build is based around this guitar, but with a few changes......

Nice choice. I was just admiring that very guitar yesterday!

NOOOOOOoooooooooooooo:eek:

Unfortunately when Adam went to dispatch the last ES-1GT on the shelf to me he encountered some non-correctable issues.... so, for the moment this thread will not continue under its present title ...

I will start a new thread on an agreed alternative once it arrives.... an ES-1TL

Just came up fine for me. Could have been a temporary glitch with their servers, or one was down for maintenance etc.

Worked for me too?
