GAS!!!! ... again. Damnit. ... Edwards LP
« Reply #60 on: April 01, 2008, 06:22:45 PM »
"guitar has been scratched to give that "aged" look", my arse  :? .  You'd have to whack the hell out of it to take those huge chips off the side.  I reckon that's had some kind of accident (which also shattered all the knobs, presumably).  And I'm wondering if the neck joint's intact....

Damn that would look GORGEOUS without the silly scratching  

If it stays VERY cheap, then I will buy it though.

Didn't you decide you don't need two LP style guitars, Sam?  :wink:

There's another one for £499 and the dinged one is still there. Hmm..

I wish... :cry:

Sambo

I reckon that you did such a good job of talking up the last one that you might have a few 'competitors' from the BKP forum after it!!

Mike

PS - any idea how much a refinish costs?

:lol: :oops:

About that....


I've recently decided that whatever I decide, won't be my actual decision at the time that the decision is put into practice. :lol:



Mike- :lol:  

Yeah I was wondering about a re-finish cost as well! Ship it off to Feline to get some one-off paint-job done on it to get a real oddball LP copy was my line of thinking.  8)

Although just reading the part of Phil's comment about the neck joint has put some doubts in my head... :(

The ultimate escape clause!  :lol:

Yeah, and I was being serious... in fact if you look at the sideways-on pic there's something visible along the neck-to-body join.  It might just be dirt...


(Edit:  I just noticed "The back of the guitar still has the stickers on....".  Good to know the finish is being protected!  :lol: )

not just the cost of a refinish either - the binding and purfling looks to be actually missing and that would all need redoing on at least the upper half of the guitar to get it looking new.  probably gonna be at least £300 done properly.

I'll probably regret this one day, but is anyone interested in buying my Signature Les Paul?  I don't need three LPs and I could do with the cash towards another PRS........

Oh, the GAS is strong in this one... the twitching fingers, the bloodshot eyes... the slender bank balance...

Well I PM'd HTH earlier about his Black Dog for sale - I may use the Sig as a pickup testing station  ;)

Get that Plexi ordered Sam!
