My brother made me do it...

[Dave P]

Dave said I had to buy this guitar or else! Can you believe this was a downgraded top? It sounds as good as it looks.

 

[Dave P]

Here I am with the guitar.

 

[Dave Paetow]

Hey, where's the Strat? :lolspin

 

[Snags]

Hey, where's the Strat? :lolspin

Bite yer tounge, ye blasphemer!!! :lolspin

 

[CDaughtry]

Welcome aboard Li'l Bro!!!!:dude

 

[Dewey]

Great lookin' axe Steve:dude And if it sounds as good as it looks when are we going to hear some mp3???

...and Dave says you're the better player! I can only imagine how you can make that baby sing:dude

 

[Dave Paetow]

I wish he would record something, too!!

 

[lespaul506]

Wow, that's beautiful! That was downgraded? geez, from Dave's, I assume? what serial #?

 

[Dave Paetow]

It is 8 2809 from Dave's. It is an Authentic. It isn't the most featherweight, but it hauls ass tonally. Steve and I were in the back room with the amp blaring, and generally annoying everyone at Dave's. :lolspin

 

[Pickdropper]

It may not be the lightest LP around, but, from the looks of the picture, Steve is a big dude. Seems doubtful a few extra ounces would phase him.

 

[Tim C.]

I like the looks of that one Steve.

Especially the way it looks in the picture where you are holding it.

Congrats on the new purchase and welcome aboard!

Gee, it makes me want to get rid of my GT for a burst sooner than I wanted to.

Tim C. :timc

 

[plaintop]

Very Nice! :dude

Am I going to have to be the first one to say "Minnesota Burst 2"??

That top is stellar. Looks nothing like the pic on Dave's site. Even the cross grain is cool. I'm afraid to hear it! Excellent score!!

 

[Lily]

:wow Beautiful guitar!!! Congratulations! :dude

 

[OLIE J]

Steven, that is a really nice looking guitar. Congrats!

 

[Big Al]

Unsafe at any speed!

oOOOOOOOOOOooooOOo!!!!!:wow

A TATER TOT HOLDING A NADER TOP!!!!:wow :lolspin :lolspin

Can't believe that was downgraded!!! Tater, has said you are a dangerous player so that is what the Nader Top reference is to, that and the downgrade.

Still makin' pedals Steve???

 

[RW Foster]

Nice looking axe, Steve. :dude

 

[Dave P]

Thank you everybody for the nice comments. The guitar really kicks ass! A few ounces more doesn't bother me, it is the tone that counts. Big Al, I don't know if I am making any more pedals or not, it is just a hobby for fun.

 

[Mike Hansen]

Sweet! :dude Whoever decided that was a downgraded top needs their head examined. :wow

 

[Dave Paetow]

BTW, I think this guitar was mis-labeled as a washed cherry, it really has a beautiful ice tea color burst on it, really not red at all. It looked like the other ice tea bursts at Dave's. The picture I took for Steve is way too red.

 

[Marshallhead]

Very nice score!:dude

downgraded? In who's book?:lol
