kizanski Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 I'll save you all of the hyperbole and sales speak. #58 from a limited run of 75 made especially for Sam Ash. No COA* Black top, amber back and sides All original electronics - Gibson '57 Classic humbuckers No fret wear 8.9 lbs** The neck is 1-11/16" wide at the 1st fret, 2" wide at the 12th fret.** The profile is deep, palm-filling, vintage-style Gibson goodness. Some buckle rash on back - top and neck are beautiful OHSC in great condition *Some people say that these did not come with COAs (technically "inspection sheets"), but I know that the ones made at around this time did. The COA for this guitar actually ended up being shipped with the wrong guitar (#51). How do I know this? Well, "a friend" of the guy who owns #51 PM'd me on The Rear Page back in 2012 to ask if I had the COA for #51 since his buddy received the one for #58 with his guitar. I don't, but asked if there was a way to get my COA to me, but he never answered me back. Three times. **That's right. I weighed the guitar and I measured the fucking neck. More pictures here. It's on Reverb, but F that S. $0LD! shipped (PayPal gift).

burningyen Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 That is my favorite look on a Les Paul. Very nice!
a.bandini Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 Oh hell, someone's got to: What is its acoustic voice? Nasal? Throaty? A bit oakey, with a fruit finish? Those of us afraid to plug in want to know. Rubbish aside: Nice looking guitar, at a tempting price.
BubbaVO Posted October 10, 2018 Posted October 10, 2018 It's as black as black can be. Cool LP. GLWTS

atomicwash Posted October 10, 2018 Posted October 10, 2018 Is there a Hamer Standard standing in the shadows sending this one out the door? I hate it when the guitars don't play nicely.

ARM OF HAMER Posted October 10, 2018 Posted October 10, 2018 That IS a beautiful black beast of a guitar! GLWTS
kizanski Posted October 11, 2018 Author Posted October 11, 2018 $0LD! to the man in the Land of Flowers.

kizanski Posted October 19, 2018 Author Posted October 19, 2018 I love it when a plan comes together.
