WTB Les Paul Limited Edition Black Cherry

[BadgerDave]

I've owned two of these and stupidly let them go. I'm pretty sure Jaye has my last one, by way of Kizanski. Here's the posting that I've been running on the Les Paul Forum for over a month with no response:

Looking for a Limited Edition Les Paul Standard from the special 2004 GC run. These have ebony fretboards, a small crown inlay in the headstock and a sequence number inscribed on the back of the headstock (ex., "XXX/275").

I'm only interested in the Black Cherry (wine red) version, would prefer the 50's style neck and excellent+ condition or better. I expect to pay $1,700 to $2,000 depending on flame, originality, and condition. I'll consider lesser condition guitars at slightly lower prices. Reversable mods are OK.

If you prefer full or partial trades, I have a ton of high end gear available.

Here's a photo of what I'm after:

How 'bout this? (2007 Heritage H150 in Chestnut Burst)

[BadgerDave]

The Heritage is a beauty, but no thanks. The LPLE has precisely the specs I want and I'm inflexible.

Hope you can find one; I've seen some blue ones on eBay recently but no black cherry models.

Not for sale but thought I'd post this as I upgraded your old one with an RS premium electronics kit and WCR Goodwoods. Tone deluxe:

Very nice! I bet it kills with those mods.

Dave, there's one on Mpls. Craigslist for $1500.

Thanks, Joe!

I contacted the seller asking a couple of questions, including whether he's at all flexible about shipping.

...if only there was an HFCer in Minneapolis...

Damn!

Cool guitar.

VERY NICE! Now I want one too. Always happens when I look at HFC website, that I suddenly want a guitar even though I probably didn't know before that it existed.

And then there's this one (unless it has been mentioned before):

I found that one last week. Called once and e-mailed twice. No response from the seller.

Now all it needs is a Chickenfoot Logo on the Headstock...

Holy crap ! I didn't notice the shipping issues. I can pick it up for you Dave. Let me know how it goes.
