Members uberthrall Posted April 18, 2009 Members Share Posted April 18, 2009 I've got a Les Paul Standard in my sights here locally,as well as some other things I've got or am getting that I need to pay for. Up first is a Ernie Ball Silhouette. I just got this one in, but I have two other EBMM's, and not being a big fan of singlecoils in the bridge, I've decided to move this one along. It has three EMG SA's, a sweet mapleboard neck that's really beefy.......more so than my other Silo. I'll include a non original hardshell case for it too. No issues here other than needing a setup to lower the action. The previous owner told me he preferred it a bit higher, and liked it that way. $700 shipped to the CONUS Next up is an early 90's Charvel Spectrum in nice shape. The Spectrums have a really cool onboard wah filter that's adjustable via a control in the electronics cavity. Also, the tone knob isn't a tone control. Instead, with the filter engaged it controls exactly where in the sweep you are......cool. I didn't get a case or gigbag for this one, but I'll provide a gigbag for it myself. I'm looking for $525 shipped to the CONUS. Almost forgot....while Spectrums in general are really rare, this one having a maple board is even more so. Next is a really clean Ibanez S-540LTD. This one is in great shape, and I really hate moving it, but unfortunately it's necessary. The only flaw is a chip on the bottom edge that's been touched up. This one's a 93' model, the first year of the AANJ neckjoint. The bridge pup is a Dimarzio X2N and the neck's a Dimarzio Super Distortion. It also comes with a really,really nice Ibanez Professional Deluxe case......nicer than the Prestige Deluxe case. There's a similar Saber on the bay right now for $699 that cant hold a candle to this one. I'm looking for $600 shipped to the CONUS for this one. Finally there's a fixer upper. This one's a Yamaha 1221M Pacifica. These are most definitely not to be confused with alot of the lowend crap Yamaha's putting out today. These were $1,200 guitars back in the day for a reason....they seriously kicked the hell outof alot of stuff Jackson,Ibanez,Kramer etc was putting out back then. This one does havesome issues. Most noticable is a good sized chip of the wood was broken off and then glued back in on the lower back side. Also, the neck pup is not wired up, and the 5 way selector is backwards.......weird, but not that big of a deal, and easily remedied. The volume pot will need to either be cleaned or replaced. Finally a few missing parts.......the bar and collar for the trem, the screws and pads for the locking nut, and the original black tone knob has been replaced by a chrome one. On the good side, structurally all around it's rally solid, and with not much effort, this is a really nice player for short money. Gigbag with this one. I want $340 shipped to.......you guessed it, the CONUS. A couple more notes on the Yami. All the missing parts can be found on frets on the net. As for the bar, Ibanez Edge bars are pretty much a perfect match. Feel free to PM me or contact me at rbeattie282@comcast.net with any questions you might have, or to speak directly over the phone.

Members uberthrall Posted April 23, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 23, 2009 I'm holding onto the Saber........made the mistake of playing it for awhile today. Silhouette and 1221M are still in play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
