Man...the burst on that Edwards is just how a Cherry Burst should be. Not to red on the outside, not to yellow on the inside. What a nice flow to the finish, looks better than a lot of the Gibby's I see.

Nice cat too!

In this case... more pleasure for your eyes !

Jeff_H is right, that's what a Cherry Sunburst guitar should be like! That's got to be 1 of the nicest tops I've ever seen on a LP! Good score mate.

I like the cat, is it he/she's LP?

Re: Some cool pix to look at.. (LP, Tele, etc..)

"She" ... and still a virgin :naughty:

is your LP wearing a bandaid??

Re: Some cool pix to look at.. (LP, Tele, etc..)

Yes....:crying:
She's been hurt during shipment.

My luthier can repair her, for about 30$, but I'll lost her for 2-3 weeks...

Too bad about the damage.
Nevertheless that is a beautifull guitar!!

Aww man...that stuff kicks ass! The LP is gorgeous! How are you going to cover the cab? Tolex? or something special?

 

[Thames]

Re: Some cool pix to look at.. (LP, Tele, etc..)

Yeah, tolex. I want a simple, classic look.

Very cool color on that guitar! Very lucky...

Are you finding it hard making your own cab? I'd like to try it one day, although i have a feeling I'd probably mess it up...

 

[Thames]

Re: Some cool pix to look at.. (LP, Tele, etc..)

Oh well.. you'll probably mess up the first ones... just take some time to analyse your mistakes and how you can avoid 'em next. I'm proud of this one!

Very cool looking stuff you got there, Thames. I especially like the LP. It is the quintessential top wood and color if a LP IMO.

Re: Some cool pix to look at.. (LP, Tele, etc..)

Thames, I don't know what you're doing to me... I suddenly feel the urge to buy an Edwards LP. Has anyone compared them to Heritage and Gibson? By the looks of the guitar, it's right up there, but I'm not sure how it really sounds.

Chris,

I can tell you that, assuming I could be flamed, that it plays and sounds better than any Gibson our local store ever had. My good friend works there, he played them all during the last 2-3 years, and no one has come close to the Edwards, in terms of tone and playability. It's not the rather dumb topic "my Epi is as good or better than any Gibson", which is, facts are, totally untrue (ok except maybe a tiny 1% of them). Finition is as good or better than what US manufacturers have to offer, except it uses Poly instead of nitro, but Edwards now has the "Lacquer Top" series, which have nitro finished tops.

Acoustically rich sounding with depth, and resonance/vibration. Everything is there. As I said before, I wouldnt spend much time comparing it to Gibson standard line, as the Edwards are closer to Historic and CustomShop models. No joke.

Wow! I'm impressed, thanks for the info Thames. I may definitely think about the lacquer top series.
