No. It's from an eBay seller in San Francisco. Except for Sweetwater, I don't know of other online retailers who show the actual guitar you're buying.

Plus I believe the white ones come with an ebony board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THey don't, they're rosewood. Still nice though. There is a higher end LP Special Jr. with 2 P-90s in white, that one comes with ebony and a HSC. Also about $1200.

Members IRG Posted December 21, 2012 Members Share Posted December 21, 2012 Originally Posted by t-rey Well, nevermind. At that price I'd much rather have an Edwards LP Custom. But the LP Special (w/2 P-90s) and a maple board is only $499, pretty hard to beat. And the single Special Jr. in white that is featured here has the rosewood board, also $499, again a pretty killer deal. No Edwards in that price range, plus A$150 or so for shipping oftentimes. Separate note, tell me how awesome the Blackout Effectors Seriously SPecial Twosome is. I think I might buy that new version that just came out. Love the color, and the tones from both fuzzes. Probably will keep my Pharoah too, which I see you have as well. Redundant, or just love of fuzz? Different enough from each other I would suppose too.

It looks like rosewood in color. For a $499 Gibson the maple doesn't bother me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact with a mahogany body, maple fretboard probably makes more sense if you want a bit brighter guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
