Making way for something custom shop or vintage. Lovely as these guitars are, I must be ruthless.

I can post these, PM me to sort the details, but collection or meet-up within a sensible radius of Bristol is preferred

ALL SOLD THANK YOU FOR LOOKING

First on the block:

This Bacchus Jeff Beck spec Les Paul. This is a forum baby and was previously owned by @photek

I am posting the specs from photek's post because they are impressive:

• Made in Japan
• Open Book Headstock
• Long Neck Tenon
• Black Nitro not oxblood
• Really dark Rosewood board a must on a black guitar!
• Nice top carve on this one too
• 8.4lbs
• Chunky 59 Neck Profile
• Inked Stamped Serial Number
• Schaller Deluxe Tuners
• Original Gotoh Jeff Beck Style ones included
• Kinsman Hardcase
• Aged 80’s Duncan 59 in the Bridge

• No nips

More detail than I could ever know here https://www.thefretboard.co.uk/discussion/184718/gone-bacchus-54-jeff-beck-lp-wraparound#latest

There is a patch on the back where the finish has scraped off somehow, and there is a headstock crack that has been repaired. Neither of these things are evident when playing the guitar.

£700

LES PAUL TRADITIONAL SOLD

Les Paul Traditional, another forum baby, previously belonging to @JMS96 ;;

I was drawn to the wonderful flame on this. And true to @JMS96's word it is as lightweight (8.6lbs) and resonant a Les Paul as you could hope for.  The chrome hardware including pickup covers has been changed to nickel, and since I got it I changed the 300k pots to 500k CTS TVT and converted it to 50's wiring.

All the original parts are in the case.  It has a few dings and scuffs, nothing that jumps out (it was difficult to photograph) but enough that you can be relaxed about handling it :-) 

Here is the original thread:

£1350 for this one please

JAZZMASTER SOLD

And the last one for today is this Vintera 60's Jazzmaster. I bought this new very recently because I wanted to know what Jazzmasters are all about. It has been fun and despite being a nice guitar I don't think Jazzmasters are for me.  It has taken me a month to come to this conclusion.  It is hard for me to form an opinion in shops.
 What surprised me the most was how comfortable I found the neck.  It's a 60's shape but being vintage inspired it has some heft to it.

I remember there being a mark on it somewhere but I couldn't find it when I was photographing it.

I have the box so I can post this.

£600

Jazzmaster sold

If anyone is on the fence about the Bacchus, don’t be, it’s a belter of a guitar, light, really well made and such a punchy sounding thing with the wraparound bridge. 

Buy it before I end up with it back!

Bump. I got a slap on the wrist for using spoilers to tidy up the thread, so don't do that if you're thinking of doing it

Boing!
