I AGREEEeeeEEEeEeeeEeeeEEee. never EVER SELL AN ES 355!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

Cool, I didn't know block inlays were around before 1973

I do believe they were. Dot inlays =335, Paralellogram = 345 Rectangle = 355 if guitar had Varitone ( I think it is called)
Smaller Rectangle =335 like Alex Lifeson plays.

One of my dearest friends took this photo of us last night. I am the old bugger with camo pants. Check out our rigs! It was loud! Turning the bass cab so that it is sitting directly on the floor is an old trick for maximizing the transmission of vibrations through the floor.

Happy New Year, Dave.
Speaking of Doom Metal, I been thinking about my Laney AOR 50 Pro Tube head and considering how to do some of the maintenance I think it needs since I picked it up a couple years ago.

 

[Dave Sloven]

Happy New Year! Yeah I am wondering when I might need new tubes for my 6534+

Expensive job ...

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

Speaking of expensive, this doesn't seem so expensive but I sure wish I had the money for it.

Why?

It shortens the overall string length and gives the guitar
a different feel. It's a small but noticeable difference.

I think the big block inlays and the split diamond
headstock started with the LP Customs. 1954 maybe?
Others here will know better than I do. Anybody?

I think I meant "how"! So you did it yourself?

Here's a pic of me at a local bar playing at a blues jam. i played every Sunday there for about a year then the jam switched to Thursday. I played Thursdays for a couple of years but don't get there very often any more. It's turned into more of an open mic than a jam and I don't get along that well with the current organizer. I'm in the blue t-shirt. Looks like I'm playing a tele through one of the house amps. Shortly after this pic I started taking my own amp.

I had it done by the guys in Bill Lawrence's shop that he had on LaGuardia Place in the early 70's.
The guitar had a maestro when I got it. I wanted the tuning stability of a stop tail.

Tony, did you have it stripped of the oroginal finish or was it already brown when you got it in the first place?

Yeah, I ask just out of curiosity, it looks cool indeed, since I bought my faded brown SG I cant get enough info and mojo of them!
