Members somata Posted June 10, 2009 Members Share Posted June 10, 2009 Looking to send my 1975 Gibson Marauder to a new home. Great vintage guitar with a killer neck. Just need to thin the herd: http://s8.photobucket.com/albums/a50/somata/1975%20Gibson%20Marauder/ The guitar is is good condition considering its a 34 year old guitar; a few dings and some buckle rash, but overall very clean. It's all original, including the original Bill Lawrence designed pups. It also includes an original hardshell case. Looking for $950 +shipping to the lower 48. I'm also relatively close (90miles) to Chicago, and could always do an in-person deal. I'm mostly looking for cash, but I do like American and Japanese guitars with humbuckers, trems, and preferably a painted neck... A TC Electronic G-System or Line 6 Vetta Head (+cash depending on the version) might pique my interest too... Thanks for looking! I'll have some more gear up for sale once I get some pics: Ibanez 7620 Japanese 7 string, Epiphone Valve Jr. head, Boss GT-6, assorted pedals...

Members rlm297 Posted June 14, 2009 Members Share Posted June 14, 2009 Very nice Gibson. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe KISS used a few of these back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Crunchtime Posted June 15, 2009 Members Share Posted June 15, 2009 Very nice Gibson. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe KISS used a few of these back in the day. I have read that Paul Stanley used to smash these at the end of a show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members somata Posted June 15, 2009 Author Members Share Posted June 15, 2009 yep, I believe that Paul Stanley was an endorser of the Marauder, and legend has it that he would smash them at the end of a show...Just a note, this guitar has NOT been smashed by Paul Stanley Also, this is a US made model, I believe some of the later guitars were Japanese...and a bump...

Members GibsonVMan Posted June 18, 2009 Members Share Posted June 18, 2009 Thats a nice guitar. What a shame paul stanley used to destroy these...for shame. I had a '76 gibson s-1 which is identical. It had a modded pickguard and was loaded with 2 period super distortions. That damn thing rocked!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members somata Posted June 19, 2009 Author Members Share Posted June 19, 2009 yeah, this thing sounds and plays great. the best clean i ever heard was this guitar's split pup middle position into a 1970's Hiwatt that had been owned by Ted Nugent...georgeous. and a bump...
