    2000 Gibson Yamano Sparkle standard?

    I have a 2000 Yamano R9 Murphy Aged (Historic Makeover D Brazilian Package), all aged DMC, Pigtail hardware and Tim White Pickups. It all starts with the Yamano Body (which I’m super satisfied with) for me and with my level of playing I’ve never found anything better. Not sure you can go wrong...

    doubt on a R9 2000 or 2002?

    My 2000 Yamano R9 has a COA. It came with two cases a black historic and a Lifton.

    My aged case from John Dretto of relic guitar cases

    If you ship a Lifton Case, you’ll definitely get aging, you’ll probably also get some extra aging on your Les Paul as a bonus. I’m not confident that it will make it to the Car without a catastrophic event. For shipping I use the black Historic case.
