Members GreaserMatt Posted June 18, 2010 Members Share Posted June 18, 2010 Here's an MIJ jag I picked up as a project for $200; you don't want to see what's under that pick guard! I have the orig pups w/ it; can anyone ID these 'buckers? They sound great, but this should not have been done to a jaguar. It's got an 'LE' serial number on the back of the headstock (limited edition?) w/ like 6 digits after it. I think its an early/mid 90's... anyone selling a pick guard cheap?

Members Slave2TheAudio Posted June 19, 2010 Members Share Posted June 19, 2010 this one came home with me about a year or so ago as i happened to be in a local music store for strings. it's a somewhat rare 2000 Standard that Gibson did in an assortment of limited colors. it's solid blue with some very subtle, small flakes mixed it to give it this crazy-cool depth without being very "bling". the back is a dark chocolate brown. the board is ebony, which i very much enjoy. very nice sounding and rather heavy (no chambering here). i am not really a blue guitar kind of guy, but this one is stunning (IMO). OMFG....I want one!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GreatDane Posted June 20, 2010 Author Members Share Posted June 20, 2010 OMFG.... I want one!!!!! thank you! it's actually one of the finest playing Les Pauls I've owned. everything about it is perfect, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GreaserMatt Posted June 20, 2010 Members Share Posted June 20, 2010 i do love me some goldtop. what year is that classic? how do you like the ceramic pickups? 2006; non-chambered. I love them, but most people swap 'em out. It's true, they only have one sound (rock), but boy, what a sound they have... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's true, they only have one sound (rock), but boy, what a sound they have... that sounds like a nice one. i have no issues with one-trick ponies, as long as that one trick is bringing the rock.

Members igge Posted June 20, 2010 Members Share Posted June 20, 2010 thank you for sharing! it's hard to tell from the pics, but it looks like you've got a 'mary kay' thing going on with that squier (i.e. gold hardware, trans-white finish). what's the story with that LP? i've don't recognize the make/model. Mary kay??? The tuners (Gotoh), tremnut + StewMac vintage tremolo were stuff I had laying around. Thought they'd do good in the Strat. Stock tuners are really lousy; it's a Bullet Strat. The newer bridge gives better sustain+ wider string spread. And is overall way better. The Les Paul is a J&D (Jack and Danny Brothers, a Taiwanese company) LC3 with new pickups (Tonerider Rocksong) ,electronics, copper-foil shielding, Tusq nut. None of the cavities were shielded, so it was a noise generator. Now it's dead quiet and sounds sooo much better than the Epi LP Standard. I used to own a few of those so I'm fairly confident in making that statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GreatDane Posted June 20, 2010 Author Members Share Posted June 20, 2010 this is a 2004 Les Paul Standard Limited Edition in a finish they called "santa fe sunset". as attractive as it was, i did not like this guitar. there was something about it that made it feel very "plastic-y" and it felt very cheap overall (i know i'm not really explaining this well, but it's the best i can do). i ended up selling it to a guy who still raves about it to this day. to each, his own...

Members GreatDane Posted June 22, 2010 Author Members Share Posted June 22, 2010 pictures of a 2005 Gretsch Jet Firebird that i bought and later traded (for a strat that i later sold for good money, IMO). a very nice guitar, indeed. my humble opinion is that the newer gretsches exceed the quality, playability and tone of the vintage US versions.
