SOOO much misinformation in that video, or at least the small portion I watched. Original Gibson PAFs WERE NOT wax potted. After that the video lost ALL credibility.

SOLD/PSA: Anybody Wanna Boogie?
HoboMan replied to crunchee's topic in For Sale - Wanted to Buy - PIF - eBay & Other PSAs
A friend of mine bought one of those new back in the early 80s. Sounded KILLER! -
I put on on my Les Paul Special. I put scratches on the top of my guitar and didn't work very well. Immediately removed it and returned it.

Going to see Cheap Trick tomorrow

I saw them in the early 80s with UFO opening up. KILLER show. -
Awesome! Richie Faulkner has stolen some moves & poses from Zakk Wylde

Sounds KILLER! Good condition. Some stains on the top from gigs but no rips or tears. Works perfectly. This is the V2 model with separate volume & master volume controls for each channel. 3 channels, Clean, Mean, Seek & Destroy. This is not just for metal music. I've gigged it for years play Pop, Country, Classic Rock & Hard Rock. Very reliable. Never had an issue. Includes original 4-button footswitch. One for each channel and one to turn the effects loop on & off. I don't have the cable for the footswitch but it takes a regular guitar cord. $800 local pickup only. Madison WI area. Here it is in action:

Put fretboard inlay stickers on my guitar
HoboMan replied to HoboMan's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
DAMN, can't I do anything without that guy copying me? Seriously, didn't even think about Ace. Angus is one of my favorites but my SG has trapezoid inlays so I couldn't put the lightening bolts on it. -
Put fretboard inlay stickers on my guitar
HoboMan replied to HoboMan's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
Damn, that would be cool! Not sure if they do. -
OK, it's not a Hamer but I'd thought I'd share in case anyone else is interested in trying these. Spent $7 and really elevated the look of my Les Paul Jr. Special. Got them from here (no affiliationL: http://inlay-stickers-jockomo.myshopify.com/ Just finished putting them on. REALLY liking the look. Hopefully they'll stay during gigs. Before & after pics.

Nice to see Vivian rocking again. I saw a youtube video where he mentions that his string gauge is 13s or something like that. Really good to see Vinnie on drums. I always thought his drumming was huge contributor to the Dio sound.

2012 Les Paul Jr. Special. Originally came with P90s. I love the tone of P90s but can't stand the buzz. I put in a set of custom vintage spec wound Vintage Vibe P90 size Humbuckers. Sounds & plays KILLER!

Gig Alert - Hookers Resort Poynette WI 8-24-13
HoboMan replied to HoboMan's topic in Hamer Fan Club Messageboard
Thanks all. Gig went well. I got to use my Les Paul Special with the new Vintage Vibe PUs. They humbuckers that fit in a P90 PU slot. I had them custom wound. I ended up using my Budda SD18 and the rig sounded KILLER. The guitar is just a great guitar and the new PUs sounded fantastic. They are a lower PAF wind and got a great vintage tone. Kick in my TS10 for some overdrive and the leads were searing. Here's a pic of the Les Paul. I know it's not a Hamer but it's still a great guitar. -
