  1. It arrived last week. tbonesullivan's review here quite well covers it. It's really awesome. Transformers are now Hammond (Canadian).

  3. The arsenal, including the part in the mirror behind the standard case, is a classy touch too! 🪖 Nice guitars. Both are tempting.

  5. Forgot about this one (I have one of these too). Supposedly Wayne Charvel was involved with the design. Judging by 'asking' prices, these are desirable and vintage now. 🤑 Reissues must be coming soon.
  6. One of my all time favorites: (Someone had to.)
  7. Les Paul Studio Lite and a couple of variations of it from like 88-90-something had a Chromyte 'core'. I have a 92, once I got Gravelin's in it, totally awesome.
  8. Red-knobs were like 86-89-ish, and it continued with black knobs until about 93. The pots/jacks directly to the boards have always been a bit problematic, but they are great amps (so I think), and usually can still be found quite cheap. Edit - the serial numbers are kinda useless for dating. There's usually a date code, like a 2 letter thing or similar, on the tube chart or some sticker on the inside.
  9. The Miami Lakes one is closing too. That was their first South Florida location in like 1996 or so. They have others around here that are probably doing better, Margate and the Dolphin Mall one. I was going by the Miami Lakes one a couple months ago and had a few minutes, so I went in for the first time in easily 20 years. There was a lot of Michael Kelly and low end Ibanez, nothing that lit me up at all. I heard about the closing earlier in the week and had no interest in going. Nothing there I wanted, even dirt cheap. Don't know about any family drama. Maybe tgp will make something up that's lawsuit worthy.
  10. Changed tuners, changed bridge (probably for the better if it was done correctly), non-original case. Paging hamerhead?
  11. Also American Pro II Tele for $1100 or $1150 depending on color: Surf green: https://www.adorama.com/fe0113940718.html?sdtid=17286802&emailprice=t Sienna Sunburst : https://www.adorama.com/fe0113942747.html?sdtid=17286802&emailprice=t
  12. Strat: https://www.adorama.com/fe0113910761.html?sdtid=17286802&emailprice=t Tele: https://www.adorama.com/fe0118032795.html?sdtid=17286811&emailprice=t Only in these colors:
  13. Avalon at Sam Ash in San Diego. Ran across it because of the Artist PSA today. $1614. https://www.samash.com/el-guitar-w-c-ur6604017
  14. 2008. Might get a better deal if you try the store directly. https://www.samash.com/uh6656321
  15. Sounds like fun. I can't see your pics. https://jimmywallaceguitars.com/products/copy-of-template-gibson-15
  16. https://www.davesguitar.com/collections/all-products-latest/products/t-51-96
  17. Only $1700 on their site. https://www.pickerssupply.com/?product=1995-hamer-studio-electric-guitar Definitely a 2005, not 95.
  18. Top dollar. $11 million for the lot. https://www.guitarworld.com/news/mark-knopfler-guitar-auction-raises-11-million-dollars Mark Knopfler’s guitar collection has sold at Christie’s London for a total of $11,227,003 – a figure that seems to have taken even the auctioneer itself by surprise, with the venerable institution describing it as “staggering”. “The live auction in London was 100% sold, setting a new auction record for Knopfler’s 1959 Vintage Gibson Les Paul Standard, which achieved £693,000 [approx. $876,000],” notes Christie’s. ... Knopfler’s first Les Paul, his 1983 reissue, on which he performed Dire Straits’ iconic Money For Nothing riff carried an estimate of an estimate of $12,500 – $18,000, but went for nearly $749,000 (£592,200) – an astonishing figure for an ’80s LP. Meanwhile, his 1988 Pensa Suhr, the MK-1, fetched approx. $637,000 (£504,000) and his Schecter Van Nuys T-style (as used on Walk of Life) raised nearly $526,000 ($415,800) – 100 times their estimated sale prices. In total, 28 of the guitars in the 122 item sale realized prices of more than $100,000.
  19. I was actually gonna make a thread over this, glad this thread is here instead. When we think of vintage Les Paul tones and those famous for them, who among us wouldn't put Lana Del Rey right at the top of their list? 🙃 https://www.julienslive.com/lot-details/index/catalog/518/lot/224259/lana-del-rey-signed-gibson-custom-shop-1959-les-paul-re-issue-guitar-5 A 2019 Gibson Custom Shop '59 Les Paul Reissue electric guitar, serial number CME90218 in Dirty Lemon finish with gently-flamed maple top with accurate vintage appearance, in original hard case. Signed by Lana Del Rey on the guitar's top around the bridge and tailpiece area. :facepalm:
  20. More stuff, auction part 2. No Hamers that I saw, but a Bolin furburger. https://www.julienslive.com/lot-details/index/catalog/508/lot/214429/ZZ-TOP-DUSTY-HILL-BOLIN-BO-DIDDLEY-STYLE-FUR-BASS?url=%2Fauctions%2Fcatalog%2Fid%2F508 Full auction: https://www.julienslive.com/auctions/catalog/id/508
  21. Nice looking Thirty Twelve (with the footswitch!) rolled in today, much less pricey at $695. https://www.davesguitar.com/collections/all-products-latest/products/thirty-twelve-combo-black-90s
