here's link..

£450 with PRS gigbag (Note..this is the selling price and not the "starter for 10 price"..I'm not a charity worker and I KNOW a good guitar when I play one...this IS A BARGAIN! )

If you want an unbiased review, message Alex Hunter; he's played it a few times .

If you're a player, looking for a "real" Les Paul tone without spending over the odds for the Brand Name, this is the one to get. Don't even consider buying the "Cheaper Brand Name" replicas. If you're  a  trader or a "brand name only" person, there's no point you reading on...

Built in 2013;

45.3mm at nut; for you guys who like wide string spacing.

Chunky but not huge "50's Gibbo style neck profile (slightly more "D" profile than "C");

Jumbo frets (all in excellent condition) with EBONY fret-board;

Seamless neck joint and great access to top frets.

Seymour Duncan '59 pu's;

Thick Flame Maple top;

Grover tuners;

Roller Bridge

Very "rustic and woody" feeling guitar; designed to be used    .A "solid" 9.3lbs, with buckets of sustain as you would expect from a traditional Mahogany Body/Maple Top guitar .  Tonally, you wont be able to tell if from the real thing.

If it said "gibbo" or "brand" name on headstock you'd be looking at £1,500+. It has a few minor dings and dongs, but nothing obvious unless you look for it! I just have too many guitars, and something has to go.

All original spec as per initial build.

Caerphilly/Cardiff area..welcome to come try it out 

(PS Not sure why the rear strap button is "off-center" but if I'd been gigging it more (instead of my Tele's and PRS SC), then I'd have put it on the horn; however I've kept it as original spec)

Not lacquered too heavily, so feels nice and woody




Ebony neck, MOP inlays and nice big frets with no obvious fret wear

As much as I like it, I still have too much stuff;lets not be sentimental, it's gotta go. Great "real LP style" replica for the price of a budget "branded" headstock..
