UNGD: Epiphone Joe Bonamassa 1960 Les Paul "Norm Burst"

EDIT: sorry this landed in your EpiBonnaNorm Burst thread, Chris; thought I was in the My Corona.
deleted content / moved.

Disoriented, thirsty,... no fever or cough.
I didnt play at all yesterday, I must be in withdrawals.

The more I see this guitar, and the whole package of specs and build it is, the more I like it.
NOt a fan of the bright contrast burst, but even so - I love that guitar!!

Some good news...my second and nicer very limited Joe B. guitar arrived and was placed in my office by a friend.

And as luck would have it I'm being called in tomorrow on emergency maintenance at $90 an hour! So I get paid
to go down to Long Beach and retrieve the guitar!
 
JB #2 is in my hands! I drove down to Long Beach for the outage repair in the morning, but I needed time with the new Les Paul!

It's just as nice as the other one and just as well finished and set up. The action is a tad higher, but I can adjust that. Frets are fantastic
and the intonation is spot on.

This one has the inlaid fretboard and comes with an Ernie Ball Leather strap that you can only get with this outfit. It also comes with a
meet and greet with the man himself! But, you have to buy tickets to one of his shows to make that happen! I may go for it. He will
autograph the guitar if you show up for the concert and meet and greet!

Joe treats his fans as any good Ferengi would...............as potential customers ;)


Joe gets accused of a lot of things, bad marketing is NOT one of them ha.

Actually he's a great guy to his fans, comes across as still one of us. Only with $300,000.00 guitars lol.
No different then I would be if I could write off a vintage LP as a "tool" for work.
