New/Used Guitar Day: 2009 Gibson Les Paul Studio Raw

Re: New/Used Guitar Day: 2009 Gibson Les Paul Studio Raw

Made the journey safely, soundly and looking as good as I had hoped it would. Hope to get a little time plugged in later tonight.

Excellent, nice score mate... merry Christmas to you!
 
Re: New/Used Guitar Day: 2009 Gibson Les Paul Studio Raw

Thanks Gentlemen! I got to put some strap locks and a strap on it, tuned it up and plugged it in for about 40 min while my girlfriend was getting ready. Feels identical to the White one I already have although the bridge pickup seems a lot hotter but I haven't adjusted them yet. Zero regrets letting the Ibanez ICT700 go for this one.

Congrats!!! Hate to see the cool Iceman go, but I understand when something really trips your trigger! I wasnt sold on the blue color til you put up your pics.. Esp the one by the amp.. I used to be a fins fan back in the Marino/Csonka years... And Zach Thomas... What a beast!!!
 
Re: New/Used Guitar Day: 2009 Gibson Les Paul Studio Raw

Thank you! Iceman was a great guitar and hopefully the local musician who bought it will play the Hell out of it as it deserves to be enjoyed.

All I'm gravitating towards are Maple Fretboards anymore and the Warmoth Tele, USACG Iceman, GKG Crusader and the two Raw Paul's fill the bill nicely. The Aquamarine was what really caught my eye when the Raw Power came out; that and of course the Maple Fretboard on an LP!

I started watching football in '72 and the Dolphins were, of course, "perfect" that year - Griese, Czonka, Kick, Morris, Warfield, Little, Fernandez, Scott, etc...been a fan ever since. Unfortunately they've been pretty dismal since the Marino years.

Mercury Morris... Funny, had a bad dirt bike wreck when I was 16 and it knocked out alot of my memory bank from time before that... BUT.... I still have memories of Czonk playing with blood pouring out of his nose and all over his jersey. haha.

i should invest in a fine tune bridde for my Gibby LP. I love the one on my Burny..
 
Re: New/Used Guitar Day: 2009 Gibson Les Paul Studio Raw

Yes! I remember those images of a Bloody Cszonka from a cub on his nose. I'm kinda enjoying Dolphin Football again right now-esp liked last night's game. As always; I'd like nothing better than to see the Phins beat Brady & Conpany in the final game of the season.

I really like the TP-6 for tuning accuracy/stability and the mass it adds to the guitar.
 
Re: New/Used Guitar Day: 2009 Gibson Les Paul Studio Raw

Well; it's been a great first week off. Dropped off the '94 Peavey Blues Classic Amp for tubes, dropping the Aquamarine Raw LP tomorrow for a set up with Vintage Schaller Tuners/Vintage Schaller TOM Bridge/Gibson TP-6 Fine Tuning Bridge and, lastly, New Schaller Tuners on the White Raw LP which already has a Gibson TP-6 and is getting a reinstallation of the Original '57 Classic Humbuckers.

I can only wish that wasn't the case

Dude; you're talking to a Dolphins Phan...last year sucked, the year before sucked...I'm grateful for a winning record after a number of miserable seasons in "Patriot Land". Just hoping the Dolphins do what they did last year and beat the Pats again this weekend in the last regular season game.

Going to toss the Slash Signature Neck/Seymour W. Duncan Custom Shop "Slash Bridge" Set into the Aqua LP Studio Raw Power.

Frigging pickguards

Gonna change the knobage as well?
Gold top hats?
 
Re: New/Used Guitar Day: 2009 Gibson Les Paul Studio Raw

I've got a set of the Gold Top Hats that came on the White Studio Raw Power but I don't think those would look right w/Black HB Mounting Rings. I actually like the Black Knobs on it.
