It was refinished as a sunburst in the late 50's or early 60's.  It is actually the guitar on the cover of the 'Atlantic Blues Guitar' cd, so if anyone has that you know what it looks like.  If you don't, it is the cherry sunburst in the pic attached.


Whow, I would love to have a real 50's Gibbo, even as a refin, rerout, reglue, rewhatever. Although, with that kind of money I could buy a house.

Is this the CD? Do you play on it?


That's the cd.  The sunburst is sprayed wrong on the guitar, which is the first giveaway, then the grain is very distinctive, and fianally, it is a 3 piece top.

I hate to tell you this, but you payed a lot more for the VOS than I did for the 53 (I bought it about 11/12 years ago).  I don't play on the cd - I was never that famous (or that old!!).
So many pickups, so little time

yer! you know what... screw all this "Chummy BKP meet-up!" stuff... lets meet up and have a full-on 'old vs. young' brawl  :twisted:


*whisper* Sam, do you realise how outnumbered we are? Just 'cause they're old doesn't mean they're weak - just more experienced...we'd be slaughtered, and not in the good way

I'm 26 and yet seem to be alone in being the one who feels about 80! It's true though, there is only so much abuse that you can put a human body through before it starts to get a bit painfull.  PDT_022  PDT_030  PDT_047


Yep, I know what you mean.

I'm 42, but not for much longer. My mind says 21, but my body
says 64. Guess I should have paced myself better...Damn! Oh well, it's
not over yet...right fellas?

Don't have Itunes on this pc (although I did whack 'em in Itunes on the other one) I converted them to mp3 and put them into my WMP library instead :P


OK the crux of the question is 'Do you like them?' If you do, and you should if you like rock and metal. That's over two years worth of sourcing some of the material. 20 years worth of earning, buying. 3 weeks worth of itunes loading.

So get the envelope today and appreciate what I did for you!!

Then we can work out some stuff on Cubase and swap info there too. Logic!

50p in a P. Off Shop! Plus 2 stamps.
