Hi DrNom.
Very nice Unit. I'm impressed by the push pulls, obviously an after market Mod.
If I did it to Chris' Gibbo, I am sure he would fillet me.
@Stan and Co.
The Framus has been passed In. If It comes up again I'll make em an offer. As long as I get the Yeah email in a cpl of weeks time.
Todays Interview went well. Just have to spend the next two weeks waiting for the Yeah/Nay letter/email

What it doesn't have is the cream-coloured edge-binding on the body and neck, but I'm fine with that cause I've essentially got a genuine Gibson USA Les Paul.
Oh, almost forgot to add that before the Maple cap was glued on the Mahogany body the factory workers cut hollow chambers in the body to reduce the weight, personally I think it had no adverse effect on the tone of the guitar.
How's this, my Les Paul was involved in an accident at the shop where I bought it, basically what happened was that some shop fittings came away from the wall and the guitar and a few others fell to the ground, the other guitars ended up with damage like broken headstocks and such, but my Les Paul only suffered some minor cosmetic damage in the form of some dings, other than that it is perfectly playable, no cracks at the headstock where you'd expect there to be some, John,the owner of the shop was going to sell all the guitars on eBay, I talked to John about buying the guitar and he said that he wouldn't let it go for less than a third of the retail price off it and he asked me to make him an offer on it, I said "How about $2000.00?", he said "Done", the guitar was originally retailing for $2599.00, I'm happy with it anyway.
