I have a Marshall Haze 15 watt, all tube half stack (1x12) cab w/footswitch in MINT condition. It also has some REALLY nice onboard effects (vibe,chorus & echo) that sound very analog. The amp itself is extremely versatile and has that warm Marshall sound. Even though it can be played at bedroom level with the MV, this thing can get VERY loud. One of the best Marshall has put out in a while. I bought it as a portable answer to my 78 MKII halfstack, but I'm going direct now. Not a scratch...I'm asking 600.00 plus S&H. Shipping shouldn't be too bad since this amp can fit in the backseat of a compact car...Front seat too!

I'm leaving for Phoenix on Thu. No gigs next week... It's been REALLY bad out here!

Thanks! I ended up getting married to a girlfriend from 21 years ago!!!! F spaced for the humbucker.

I've owned & handled other SS1's before, but this one is an oddball. The neck is much more deep & the pitch of the set neck is more straight. Overall, it feels more like a Prototype than the production SS. Because of the serial, I think this had to be a real early one. The Floyd sits much closer to the body as a result of the neck pitch. I would to give thanks to Peter Fung , Greg G., Kim Keller, & Serial Steve, for all your help, parts & support. And special thanks thanks to everyone here on the board who gave a kind word. This was truly a labor of love & your support helped me keep chugging along!

Thanks! It sounds great & plays like butta! I added a push pull vol pot to split the humbucker (as if there weren't enough tonal combinations already).

It's been a LONG time!!! Lot of changes going on in my life (all good ones!) but I've finally found the time to finish this project. The results were well worth the wait. Here it is... I was even able to replicate the original serial in the correct font & color! Enjoy!

FINISHED!!!! Just a sneek peek! It's late, it's dark but I had to share something. Completed, assembled, detailed pics in a couple of days...ENJOY!!!!

That's a clear coat, but with a lot of orange peel! That's why I don't really want to post anymore pics until it's done. That will all be removed with the final wetsanding. You can't even tell it's a black metalflake because of the orange peel. It will be a smooth mirror finish when done!

It's finished. I'm just letting it cure for a couple of more weeks until I do the final wetsand/polish. Just a few things that I did. The clear coats over the decals were sanded level with the rest of the finish, as well as the sides of the neck where the rosewood was masked off. Then I applied several new coats after that. The other thing was the serial number. I managed to find a font that looked just like the stamp that Hamer used at the time. I printed it in bright yellow (as they did on black guitars) & now you can't tell it's a decal. I'm actually suprised at how well this turned out without any major issues. I appreciate all the kind words & support. I can't wait to show you all the finished product! Art

Thanks! 2 SD SSL's & an SD "Black Back" humbucker.

Decals corrected, applied & ready for final clearcoats!!! Sorry for the dark & warped looking pictures. I'm about ready to throw it in the pool! Bet you can guess what I'll be getting for Christmas.

Thanks everyone...and thanks for the pics! Those really helped, especially since I ended up redoing the decals. I ended up "thinning out" the signature...It was way to thick. Plus, the transfer needed to be one big piece in order to hold it's proper shape. Also, I learned that just because the decal paper is white, it was still losing it's brightness against the black finish when applied. I didn't want to paint a white patch underneath, just in case I had to scrap the body signature completely. I solved it by putting a plain white decal cut to the same shape (less 1/16") first where the transers are going to go. This worked perfectly! It's all trial & error at this point.

Thanks!!! All I had to go by was the GW from 86 & the Live Aid footage. Those pics are great!!!! I'd love to see more if you have them...shoot me an email! bonedady1068@msn.com

Yeah, less the toy raygun guts & slanted pu's! Other than that, pretty close.

So I have learned now that if you want something done right, do it yourself! I ended up making the decals myself. I'm more than happy with the results. I trimmed out the signature fo the body with an X-acto. I have all the matching fuschia headstock decals finished as well. I took pics with & without the flash to show just how dayglo it is. Right now, the decals have a matte look due to the fixative. They will be glossy after all is finished. The white around the edges of the big decal are just flash from the backing paper. These will be the last pics I post for about a month. I hate showing it with all the orange peel, even though it'll all be leveled after all the finish sanding & buffing.

Decals go on tomorrow, then the rest of the clear coats. I thought I'd get a shot of it before the big signature goes on the body. Perfect day today, sun was setting...thought it might help show the metal flake.

VERY nice!!!!

Any chance it will be completed by late Feb early March? I will be in Vegas around that time and would love to see it live on stage. ABSOLUTELY!!!! It should be ready by the end of December. Let me know when you're coming out & I'll tell you where we'll be playing...Love to have ya check us out!

I bought the Live Aid DVD box set. You can see the guitar a LOT better, plus freeze frame on the close ups. I sprayed half of my clear coats yesterday...came out great! Now, I'll let it sit for a couple of weeks before I apply the decals, then shoot the final coats of clear after that. Then it's the big wait.

I was just bustin your chops! It's ok. I chose not to put the electronics in. I couldn't think about taking a router to such a great piece of wood! I even found the correct red buttons he had on his. I already can do the raygun trick with my gear (my band does Rebel Yell). I am doing the big fuschia signature on the body. The slanted PU's looked great! I guess mine will be the RAYGUN "lite". LOL! I remember watching the Thompson Twins w/ SS on Live Aid over & over just to see the guitar. It looked black on the VHS...I didn't realize it was metalflake until I seen it on the cover of GW. At the Live Aid gig, it had hot pink covers on the single coils, but the humbucker was left black. By the time he did the GW shoot, he had black covers on them. However, I am mounting the humbucker directly to the body like his!

YOU BLEW MY SURPRISE!!!!! That's what I'm doing to this one (less the raygun electronics).

The logos & stuff will all be waterslides. I have to shoot a few coats of clear before putting them on, then shoot over those. There's another graphic that's going on the body.

Ok, so I've been doing some painting! I have to apologize with the crappy pics...my camera sucks! PRIMER- Several even coats, fixed any imperfections. Knocked down any bumps, over etc with 600 grit wet/dry sandpaper, then finished with 800 grit: Then, the moment of truth. I wanted to do a black metal flake. The problem is, most of the time they never come out black...They usually end up charcoal or gunmetal! What I did was sprayed the main base coat black & mixed a more transparent black with the metal flake & shot it as a top coat. CAME OUT PERFECT!!!! Now it still looks black! I'll have to get better daylight pics, but I wanted to at least post something. Next will be the clear coats!
