Hello, Another inquiry for the learned mambers here. Have you heard of a GT turning greener when left in its case for very log periods of time. If so, is there a way to renew the finish without destruction? Thanks

If you could have only one amp for your LP, what would you choose. No hedging, one amp only;

LP TV Jr's now the far side of $10K headed to $15K at least Goldtops with PAF's $135 and up, TOM's/P-90's in the $60K's Do you experienced fellas think they have had their run and expect Bursts to go back to being at least 3X a GT (PAF) and 30-40 X LP Jr's or Will ES's (especially...

For those of you with experience I'd like an opinion. I have the option to buy one of two pieces (actually I could buy both but when I do that I don't bond properly to either, I like to play a new one for several uniterrupted sessions in a row and that's hard to do when you have two) A TV Jr...

Gibson has released an 80th birthday version of Lucille and a Larry Carlton 335. Anyone seen/played these? Anything but hype?

I am thinking of going to Shure EC-5's for monitor but need a wireless system to drive the phones. Anyone using this or a similar set up? Thanks

For years I have just put my amp on the floor/stage and played. In the past several months however I have noted that virtually every amp/cabinet I own "cleans up" when I raise it off the floor 20 in or so. All sound tighter and less tubby, more defined. I like it! Am I alone in this preference...

I would like to roll off 6-8 of power. Any suggestions. Groove Tubes SE, one of the resistive power sinks, or...??? Thanks

Any input on a Komet Constellation? I'll be playing in my home studio. Have a great pedal (Stampede SOV-1) and a Fulltone TTE. Victria Reverberato if I need more. All I wnat is a super clean, but drivable amp. I have an LP Jr reissue that's cool if whipped. and its big brother, a Victoria...

OK, I'm sure it has been asked before, but I'm new to ULTRA hi end guitars, that like, I can actually harm. So, does anyone use locking strap lugs on their babies. Or is there a foolproof strap that requires no special fastening? I've come close twice now...:smokin Thanks

Does anyone here have any first hand experience with Solidbody Guitar in Minnisota? If you are not comfortable in open forum, please e mail me at; wavelight007@mac.com I'm considering a very high end purchase Thank you

Dear Charlie, Today I heard that the Pope's car (an Escort I believe) was sold to a Houston Atty (didn't say bluesatty) for $600K. Charlie, if you need to sell The Preacher to cover it, let me know...

Can some of you here who own or have owned both 57-58 PAF GT and 58-60 Bursts comment on any significant tonal differences you have been able to discern? PAF GT's are very cool in their own way (not much cheaper than Bursts anymore...) so are their characteristics you've noted besides tone such...

Did anyone here seriously look at the 57 GT with PAF's that Gary had there? I'd appreciate your opinion
