You know the drill

[TattooedCarrot]

Picked up the last one at Dave's for $2350. I was looking hard for a used one, but they seem to be priced around $1800-$2000 used recently, so after checking around and finding that many dealers are empty and Gibson estimating a 4-6 month back order (WTF??!!) I said WTF and bought it. I already bought an RS rewire kit and pickups will be a Wanger Fillmore bridge and Duncan Seth neck.

Can ya say "John Sykes"?


Had a black 88 exactly like it I bought brand new at Chuck Levin's in MD. Sold it to buy a PRS custom 24 10 top w/ birds.

SWEEETTTTT guitar. And congrats! That's the only color I like in the Custom (white is OK I guess...I had a used mid 80's in white..ehhh) And good pup selection (well, the Seth anyways, I'm not fam with the other you mentioned), although I liked those pups they put in the custom if ya get a "good" pair. Some of the 49X's are muddy, some are clear as a bell.

I'll get another custom someday, it was a phenomenal playing piece with great tone, and the looks go without saying. They are just different enough to where every LP Standard owner needs to have one (or two?)

NOTE TO FORUM MEMBERS: Please petition my place of work to refrain from having coffee freely available to employees if you'd rather I not ramble all over your threads. Thank You for your time. :smack:

Regular CS custom, the 57RI was only $150 more, and I like the long tenon on those, but I hate aged binding and the 57RI doesn't come with a maple cap - which was a must for me.
