Mr Marlin gear sale thread. Now with pedals and pickups and fancy Gibsons!

TheMarlin

Montys DogEar P90s. 

I bought these for my Eastman T64v, but they’re a smidge too tall.  I just found out they done fit Casino style guitars. 

I aged one of the pickups covers to match the aged covers on the Eastman T64V, so one of mint, the other aged. 

£100 delivered.  

Montys P90’s are by a huge margin, the best P90’s I’ve ever heard. I was going to swap the much adored Lollar P90’s on Eastman T64v with these! 

Grab a bargain.

fabulous guitar, had luthier setup. Plays superbly. Lovely neck and stonking pickups!

Ah, you snuck that Murphys Lab one in under the radar :-)

I meant the 195 - very intriguing in a Gretsch/Gibson sort of hybrid way !

I did!
the WA195 has a fabulous woody note to the tone, it’s glorious. It’s the second one I’ve had. The first one has a prettier top, but this one plays and sounds better. 

It’s a great guitar.

Before I fell for my own P90 Gold Top, I was not a huge fan of Les Pauls. Bought many in hope and sold them on quickly. Never been a big Gibson fan either, same deal, bought many and never bonded with them. 

So with that in mind, I thought that Murphy Lab is the best guitar I’ve ever played. It’s absolute perfection in feel, sound and looks.

Oh my word, that Murphy’s lab……..
What a stunner!!!!!!!!

TTT

Gibson R6 Goldtop Murphy’s Lab added above (in case you missed it). 

I've also got some very nice record players I’ll be selling soon if anyone is interested.

I had the joy of spending a couple of weeks with both those Gibsons .........I've also owned an ES 195 before .
The Goldtop is an incredible guitar .......I don't like P90 bridges in isolation of any kind on any guitar but that neck pickup is the sweetest sounding guitar I have ever heard and the middle position is just superb...........it really is very special.
The 195 is one of my favourite guitars of all time ......love the look and sound ..which is the 'woodiest' guitar sound I have ever heard ........this one plays superbly well .......I could even do a bit of my poor clumsy shredding on it .......when you are as poor a player as me on a big 'ole archtop thing that speaks volumes for the guitar........I really want it but current car engine rebuild says NO

Is the Bigsby fully installed on the R6 or vibro-mated?

TheMarlin

The Bigaby is vibramate installed, so fully reversible. Should be no evidence of it’s previous installation

Just a quick post to endorse the how exceptional that Rivolta baritone sounds from our recent get-together. One of those 'could play all day non stop and get lost in the tones' sort of guitar. 

Bloody loved a bit of fuzz as well. An incredibly musical tool. 

Anyone who buys it will be super happy. GLWTS.
