I’m selling my white Les Paul Studio project.
Most of you will remember this guitar project from awhile back.
Here is the complete build thread with more pics than you may even want to see:
It’s kind of a long thread, so if any one has any direct questions or needs more pics, let me know.
I have to confess, I’m uncertain as to what I should ask for it.
I spent $595.00 on the Gibson husk.
I probably have $200.00 worth of pickups in it and about $150.00 worth of tuners.
The plastics are Gibson. Those actually weren’t cheap. I’m guessing another $50.00 just for the truss rod cover, the cavity covers and pickguard.
The bridge is not Gibson. It’s from Philadelphia Luthier Supply. I think I got the tailpiece from them, too. All told, I think I’ve got about $1000.00 to $1100.00 into the guitar.
I realize I can’t get exactly everything back. But, I don’t really know how to figure a decent price.
I‘ll have to figure shipping on a case-by-case basis.
Has anyone else ever shipped a guitar and knows the best way to do that?
I will be including a hard case, though it is not a Gibson case.
One more thing, I currently have .009 to .042 D’Addario strings on it, with a .017 wound 3rd string.
I suppose I’d like to get about $750.00 for it.

Les Paul Studio Project
And so, it begins... I just paid for a Les Paul Studio husk, in alpine white, with ebony fret board. My Stratocaster project has given way to a Les Paul project. This is the plan: I will install my never-used gold Kahler trem on it. Yes. I will finally put that piece of hardware to use! I...
