Looking for £850 and I can provide P&P; although, if you have a Non-Fender Japanese Stratocaster that I can buddy it up with, I would be interested.

    Answers to Questions:

    > It's a Late 50s Neck Profile in keeping with the '58 Theme
    > Packs all the wallop of a normal Les Paul Standard, as it's only 0.5lb lighter
    > The Pickups are indeed the same as the £2K+ Models and Low-Med Output
    > I use a 10-46 Regular String Gauge on a Low Action (normally Dean Markley Signatures)
    > I'm deciding between keeping x2 P90 SGs, or keeping the '77 and buying a Jap Strat

    Serious alternative to a Gibson R8...

    Just beautiful. Seventy Seven are unjustly overlooked/unknown. I have the 335-alike Ex Rubato and it's a staggeringly good guitar. If I hadn't recently bought an FGN Les Paul style I'd have had this straight off you.That really is a *very* good price for this guitar.  GLWTS ;-)

    You need an idea of what you are going to do, but it should be a vague idea.

  • Seriously considering trying to sell my Taylor to raise funds for this and to mod my Gretsch.

    I almost want your 77 to sell to put me out of my misery! :)

    Thanks Teye - I'm going to withdraw this for December, but just wanted to wait until payday. I still think it's a better deal than anything I've seen during Black Friday.

    Plenty of interest but no solid buyer, so this one's going back in the wardrobe.

  • Felt like I’d asked this before but can’t see it in the thread -is it a nitro finish?

    I believe the 'top laquer' is nitro over poly, but it's very thin as you can see - I'll start re-posting the pics

    Looks to be £400 cheaper than a 2nd hand Les Paul Standard from Gibson USA's Production Line.

    Not a lot else to say...Bolt-On equivalent is the Momose Branch, who have always been held in high regard.

    One more New Year bump, along with the reason why I bought the Seventy Seven:

    If you decide you need a Martin 000-15 in your life pm me, I’m still very interested in this seventy seven.
