Hi Tim,
Yust put in the order for a calibrated reverse zebra nailbomb set ;-)
Its for the burny LP that is a bit to bright sounding, remember?
thanx in advance,
Rob van der Sterren.

worth?
well, not very mutch, about 500/700 euro's i guess.
but only to someone who's into les pauls and history and stuf ;-)
i payd 700 but thats because i realy wanted one.
and later on decided that i could never sell it for that kind of money so its now a fake gibson conversion ;-) just for keeps and fun.

ow, rate.
it feels like and looks like a '58 les paul. (or at least as far as i know, never held a '58 ;-) )
but in comparisan to my gibson is very mutch the same.
they used poly finish on the burny so its less 'sticky'.
but from a few feet away its a gibson.
same weight, detailed finish and overall a great build guitar.

if you dont want to buy a real gibson, go for a lawsuit model.
Greco, burny or a tokai, the copies built today (epi and so on) are cheap as ripoffs compared to lawsuit era guitars.
