Re: Under the bed vintage Les Paul
my Grandfather had a mean pair of Brass Knuckles and quite the collection of Butterflies pinned to a framed board.
he was a Mechanic and went to work in his Slippers

There are still some that think the neck PU is moved to accommodate the extra frets which only proves they cannot detect the difference in length of each.

Re: Under the bed vintage Les Paul
Is it just me or have prices eased a wee bit on these? Or are the big bucks only for the most pristine of instruments?
Not that I could ever afford one.

It's a fake...
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.

But to be fair to him, I have heard that he always pays whatever something is worth and he never takes advantage of anybody. If he saw an elderly person that had a mint condition '59 LP and they were none the wiser as to its' value, he wouldn't screw them over. Well at least that's what I have heard

Re: Under the bed vintage Les Paul
There's been a few of these on that forum over the years that have turned out to be disingenuous.
Some people just get a buzz out of the fuss they create I spose. Sit at the computer and read all the comments... whilst masturbating furiously.
Not saying this happened here but... y’know. ....

Re: Under the bed vintage Les Paul
From the same guy with the Manfred Mann Pickup story:
He was talking to Lou Walmsley from The Underdogs (look them up, kiddies) about past gear and Lou mentioned his Les Paul from the early days of the band. Here's a picture of it from 1966.
Think about that for a moment..... What you're looking at is a 1959 Burst, plugged into a Jansen amp, gigging in a Kiwi pub.

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

I see they used some other cool gear back in the day too (335, Strat, Tele, Mustang) but I didn't know about this! Looks like a race lads! Who will find the lost kiwi burst!

He probably pulls the project out every now and then and stabs at the neck joint with a blunt chisel to try and make it work....
