I can't buy anything from you guys. You all hang to the left.

 

[Dave Sloven]

I think the only Gibson I would consider buying now besides a M-III is the early RD with the 25.5" scale, which are definitely Norlin era

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

No, Birds? Dave?

 

[Dave Sloven]

Firebirds? No

I have drums, you can set them up either way.

 

[Dave Sloven]

If I ever had a custom guitar made, it would basically be a copy of a Gibson M-III with some subtle hardware improvements and no pickguard (I've always thought those pickguards are ugly). Oh and delete the middle pickup!

I own a 1977 RD Standard plays well

Shewie, No way I am spending $700+ for an Epi unless it is one that John Lennon and Paul Mccartney played in the 60's.

My ceiling is about $350 for a brand new Epi. $200 if used.

Nice one Goo, I also like the Korina V's and Explorers Epi made.

Me too, I had gas for the V and got one recently. Very nice guitar, but has a little bit of neck dive. So I watched a YouTube where this guy had a great idea, put a bunch of BBs in an old nylon and put it in the electronics bay. So I bring my jar of BBs down to the studio, take the V off the wall and.....



theres NO rear electronics bay

That's a mighty big Fender pick you have there Don.

OH hmmm Interesting, DonO. What year is yours? I remember my Mom and Pop shop had one I passed on back in 2012. Got my Epi LP instead.

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

Maybe a switch to Klusons instead of the Grovers? Or If a new guitar, return for a different one?

 

[Cadorman]

Maybe a set of those brass balls you see cowboys hanging from their trailer hitches? Could be a good look on the back of a V.
