Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!
Anyone have any experience with CME exclusive reissue's? I know the custombuckers have an 'S' in the middle so not sure what the difference is? Also, it's a '58 with a '59 Carmalita neck that I know very little about. What would be the difference between a '58 with a '59 neck and just a '59? Any...
Thanks as always for replying Mat, you are a great help and a terrific ambassador to your brand. I love it, no way I'm selling and it is a gorgeous piece of maple just missing the flame part lol. Perhaps the flame tops should be graded after carving to ensure consistency, and repurpose the one's...
Hi Mat I've got a question for you. I just got the new Slash model, the limited to 250 units one. It is advertised as AAA flamed maple top, however this is the plainest plain top I've ever seen! The guitar is gorgeous but definitely not what I expected. Question is how do they grade these...
It’s simple, the Standard was a deluxe with full size humbuckers instead of mini-humbuckers and a Standard truss cover instead of the one that says Deluxe. Otherwise the same guitars.
Thanks Mat, really hard to find any consistent info on these other than 99 was 1975 and 00 was 1976. I’ll leave it at that, just glad to have such a well looked after example and a really easy player too.
Appreciate it but aside from the obvious details I should have been more specific with my question. What I would like to know is Kalamazoo or Nashville made, production numbers, date of manufacture etc.
Pictures to go with my earlier post. Matt I wonder if there is anything you could dig up on serial # 99 123609? I would love to know more but does not seem to be much info out there.
I know this is a custom shop thread but had to share. Picked up an incredible all original ‘75 Deluxe/Standard yesterday. While taking it down for a good cleaning I found a tag under the neck pickup that said W/RED with the name Roberta under that. Naturally the guitar will be called Roberta...
