mc2 Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Here's a blurry pic of my son from a decade or so ago playing that one... That one is my favorite Standard....wish I had that one because it's the SN# next to my Standard Bass (left) shot in the matching color, likely at the same time I would guess.
raythewrench Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 The way these are fanned out looks like a hand of cards ... A cool hand is better than no hand at all....
cmatthes Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Jon - the current owner has the matching 3 pickup Vee/Vector. Same fingerboard, etc. He got that a few years earlier from a (now closed) used shop in Dupont Circle here in DC.They may have been ordered by the same person, not sure.

Same fingerboard, etc. He got that a few years earlier from a (now closed) used shop in Dupont Circle here in DC.My records show the same owner for #0055 for close to a decade. Really, can that be right?!?! So I did some research and show #0029 has had the same owner for almost 15 years. Damn, time flies when you're having fun! Hamerica
cmatthes Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Believe it or not, Brian!Just looking at that picture of my son when he was just starting to play guitar as a small fry 9 year old. He's 6'2" and 19 now. Time DEFINITELY has flown by.Guess we're having a blast!
deadringer Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 Figured I'd post these here as well. My Standard Korina with chrome hardware and no pickguard.

Wonder if we can get her to do an HFC shirt? When first read this I thought it said "I'll tap that" Can't remember whose avatar that is but it is memorable.
RichRS6 Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 Number 0316. Recently acquired from Harald, a consolation prize, as he would not let me pry 0030 from his hands.... I did make him promise to give me first dibs though.............. This pic gets the colour better. The not so good bits. Lots of wear & tear/battle scarring, looks like someone used a scotchbrite pad to clean it at some point, refin on the neck, tonepro bridge and T/P, Grovers replacing the original Schallers. The good bits. It plays like a dream and sounds fabulous even with the original P/Us replaced by a pair of Dimarzio super distortions and all the not so good bits means it's not likely to remain in the case for long plus being in the EU there was no import duty to pay. The deal with Harald was very smooth, seems a cool geezer.
BTMN Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 I seen a Standard in 1989 that was #0750 at Keller Music in Columbus, Ohio IIRC.
bubs_42 Posted October 21, 2013 Author Posted October 21, 2013 Coming soon... Oh hell yes! That one is going to deserve a standing Ovation! Pun completely intended.
RichRS6 Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 So this is a makeover not a new one ?I'm sure it will be a beauty, looks a bit salty.
oldskoolrulz Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 incredible eye candy, has to be one of the best threads ever on this forum guess i'll add a pic of my '07 custom here, although it pales in comparison to many of the others posted already...
