SOLD: Gibson Les Paul Melody Maker £350 wine red

rivercider

I actually bought three of these (two for me, one for a mate) as it was on a good deal, and I've sunk a further 60 quid into this one (setup, fret ends rounded, fretboard deep oiled, new Gibson truss rod cover as I don't much like the MM one) since I bought it new a month ago. It's part of a 2014 batch that recently must have been unearthed in a warehouse somewhere, and a specific dealer had them available at a good price. I bought the last example they had in wine red, which is what we have here. It's been out of the Gibson box about a month, so is essentially new, despite the year of manufacture. 
More like a Les Paul Special than a traditional Melody Maker, the P90s snarl the way they should and the mahogany body has a carved maple top but is thinner than a Les Paul.  
Well, there's no fool like an old fool, and a tele has now caught my eye, so I am looking for a new home for this as wifey will lose her mind if I bring home another one without shipping one out....
Prefer collection from Bristol/South Glos area, ideally.

Would you consider shipping?

I could probably ship, yes, but what method of payment are you thinking about? 

rivercider

Failing that, could maybe consider meeting somewhere in the middle, if it suited you. Might be a good excuse for me to visit Andertons again, & the other usual suspects in that neck of the woods.....

Thanks Andy, I was asking for a friend who I thought was looking for one of these, but it turns out he has already bought one. Great guitars for little money - I'm a big fan of Gibson P90's and they go nicely in these thinner bodied Gibbo's IMHO. Good luck with the sale mate. (If I didn't have a junior and special I'd take it myself!)
