Oops! I bought another Les Paul!

[Simon_F]

I've been talking about buying a new guitar for such a long time now!

I really love my '96 LP that's been my main guitar for the last 7 years. I've been mulling over a few SGs and Teles lately, but whenever I pick up the LP it just feels like home. So...... I saw this on Ebay and pulled the trigger.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=3751228557&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT

And I WON! I can't believe it! Excellent UK price - if this guitar is everything the seller says it is I've just got myself a real ROCK 'N' ROLL bargain!!

WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO! :dance: :arms: :fest7: :banana:

Now all I have to do is explain it to Mrs_F. :smack: :chairshot - that's her with the chair :joke:

Looks like you got a real bargain Simon - lets hope that when it arrives it that you can run faster than Mrs F or both you and that guitar will be history :saeek:

A review when you get it??

What pickups are you going to put in it? That looks like a CC/Seth nickel to me.

Not sure yet. This one comes with '57 Classics (not the dreaded 496R/500T), and I have a '59 set and a Custom sitting idle in a drawer. I'll probably put an RS pots/caps kit in then see how I get on with the '57s.

Nice score Mr. Atomic Donkey. I hope it's all as descibed, because it sure is beautiful in the pictures.

Re: Oops! I bought another Les Paul!

I hate these kind of threads. I wish I could accidently stumble on a Les Paul. I just want one. That is sweet looking thought. I'll trade the girl in my avatar for that Les Paul.lol


Edit: I forgot your married so that trade probably wouldn't work out. Damn it. :yell:

Nice, Simon. Robbo would approve, and that's what's important.

Re: Oops! I bought another Les Paul!

I think that's the guitar Billy Howerdel (A Perfect Circle) uses. Some early 90s '60 RI anyway.

Nice score.
