FWIW if anyone is hell bent on a dirty lemon, mine's going back to GG tomorrow...

What didn’t you like about it to send it back ?

This thread could go on for months.  Someone buys your return, and then they return it and so on ........

Which begs the question, how many times does a Guitar need to be returned before it can only be sold as “used”.

I think once a guitar goes back after say a week with a customer, really it needs to have a slight discount or at least it needs to be listed as returned.

That does it for me!

I think you may have got the best top of the bunch in washed cherry and the colour is superb.

Legionreturns said:

Wow @Modellista that is a stunner! Definitely one of my favourite ones so far! Congratulations! 

Cheers guys.  'Tis a lovely-looking thing.  Need to get it plugged into a bit of hot metal ASAP.

Never having had a bit of wood like this before I'm surprised at how it changes depending on the lighting and the angle.  Straight on in diffuse light the top looks almost totally plain.  Obviously I maximised the angle and the lighting for the pics

For anybody looking for a Cherry 58... this has popped up on Coda's site...
https://www.coda-music.com/gibson-custom-shop-2017-1958-les-paul-standard-plaintop-iced-tea-871323.html

The description says Cherry... the URL says Iced Tea.  Photo looks like Cherry, to me. Whatever it's called... it looks nice.

[I haven't kept up with the thread, so apologies if someone's already mentioned this.]

It looks like there are three more at Max Guitar, should anybody who missed out still want one. An Iced Tea, a Dirty Lemon and a Faded Tobacco.

You'll have to pay a bit more, though: thanks to the exchange rate they're about £2695 rather than £2500.

These have been up for a week now. I got my es335 figured antique cherry last Friday. Stunning top and a really nice piece of rosewood.

Cheers dude.

I didn't manage a Parmo I'm afraid.  I literally had 15 minutes to nip to Magic Rock before I had to go into town for a haircut and meet @Legionreturns .  Walked past the stall though, it looked very posh and rather tasty.  Nothing like a real Parmo
