ISO A Particular 1983 Phantom


Recommended Posts

Anyone seen this guy?  Asking for a friend... 🤓

Sold it to an HFCer back around '08 or so and lost track of it after that.  Serial Number 3 7991 with untouched electronics and an actual OHSC.  The hog neck was just a hair under what would later be called Vintage Carve.

Imgur isn't playing nice this morning (I'll keep working). Suffice it to say, Rhubarb Red is making his way from Guitar Chimp... Should be here mid-week to join my island of unused toys🤪

Finally got it worked out - man the weird formatting and such brought on by the e-commerce websites!

I was too intrigued by the prospect of Gibson's newborn quality, the beautifully-executed burst and very subtle, "just enough" figuring on the top.  I seriously couldn't get anyone to talk me out of it.  After the blessing of a certain HFCer 'in the know on all things Gibson,' I succumbed (again, many thanks).  I'll plan a full NGD post when it arrives.

ETA: my first Lester...

Ah, that looks badass!  I’ve never had a Les Paul either. Kinda feel like I should have one at some point. That looks like a good one. Congrats.

Hhmmm, I remember @zorrow had a white one that he sold one time. Can‘t tell if it were this one. Maybe he chimes in. (Talking Phantom)

Mine had a six-in-line headstock. Awesome sound and playability, but its neck was excessively thin for my tastes.

That was Serials' old veteran of a thousand gigs, wasn't it?  The subject of the search was an earlier one with a much thicker neck (0.88, first fret).
