I thought my '54/55 to '58 Darkback Goldtop conversion might be interesting for the Historic District as well. There were no original parts left, so I decided to go for decent repro parts, and a pair of original unopened PAF's. - Pickup Rings: English OTP M69 by Retrospec - Pickguard...

I'm serious about the title. I've been there just a week ago, together with a friend from CT. :) Link

While I was checking details for my GT conversion project, one of those VAH questions caught my attention. What is the exact position of the 'Les Paul' silkscreen logo on the headstock? After digging through my Les Paul folders I came up with a preliminary hypothesis that I would be happy to...

I'm looking for detailed pictures of an original goldtop in excellent condition with just some minor forearm wear and a few dings here and there. I just couldn't find any high resulution pics of what I'm looking for. There is either too much wear or the pics are too small to make out enough...

This is undoubtedly another product from Doncaster. We'll see if the seller is going to pull the auction as he was now informed that it's not a Marshall.

A Survey of Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud Due to his musical career it just took some 35 years to acquire his doctorate in astronomy. Congrats Brian! :dude:

In early '03 I bought this boogered '54/'55. There are no original parts left, but it has a nice early PAT No. bridge PUP and a narrow spaced PAF with added coil tap in the neck position. She sounds great, but I thought would profit a great deal from removing the thick Poly/PU finish, replacing...

My poor old '54 conversion is in need of a real vintage ABR-1, mainly for tonal reasons. A wire ABR would just as well be fine, though nickel prefered. I can live without (original) saddles and would accept issues, as long as it's structurally sound. wannatone [at] arcor.de

get Lancelot cloned. Or do I smell here you would do differently :hmm

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250170836138 The amp is legit and was sold on ebay about a year ago. Seems like the scammer has hacked a dead account and stolen the pics from the original auction.

Vervet Underground & Nico :bug

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150055795330 This amp sold on fleeb about 6 months ago, using the same pics and SN#. The usual suspects... account inactive for 5 years, privat bidder's identities, cashiers check or money order, 3 days auction, ...

just saw one listed on a dealer site: http://www.bestguitars.com/71GibsonCitation.html That's one helluva nice guitar :drl :drl :drl I still have the '71 catalog and price list that I collected in my early days. Btw. it was listed at DM 12,600 (some $7,800 ). So it was just a dream to see how it...

For those who aren´t on the PP: It´s a very early JTM-100 Super PA w/ white back panel, probably late ´65, w/ the voltage selector on the 3" PT. The cab has a pair of small Vox vents. The chassis appears to be almost 100% original, except for a couple of replaced components. It came with a set...
