Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!
i met ann. i had a 58 gretsch countryclub i wanted to show her. it was backstage it was from the original owner and it played like butter. she opened the case and to my horror it was a fender coronado! i had grabbed the wrong case. ann was so cool . what a classy hot chick. she told me she would...
haha, its crazy but i have bought tons of amps over time and it seems like the most reluctant sellers were always the ones selling their deluxe lol
the only thing worse is buying from a long term pre war martin owner
thats awesome. i sold an rc allen guitar from the fifties to a pawnshop for 100 dollars when i was 16 years old, i went back in when i was 26 and bought it back for 150 dollars. hard to believe but true, and i still have it over 30 years later!
i think some majic happened in 74 at marshall. cant explain the 1974 amps that crush it. my pals have had them too.
i had a beat 74 50 watter i popped it on greedbay for no particular reason with no reserve, got 550 dollars for it. i havent heard another 50 watter like that one. i fumbled that one.

guys we are the boomers that are suposed to be dying and flooding the market. i,m old too. we are coming up quickly to our final encore.
sure we are freeing up on gear we love but i personally dont feel there will be a tank in prices, theres just to many people getting hip to awesome vintage stuff!
a couple of my homies want 8 to 10 k for their juniors. a few years ago i could have had them for 5500 each. everyone said vintage guitars would tank??
i love juniors, dont tknow why they arent 18k
well a boatload of pots were purchased around 66 which were installed in fender guitars all the way up into 1969.
also i think leo did have a 'thing' for an endless supply, he purchased a huge lot of wood in the mid forties for his amps, the roof leaked and messed some of it up and he built a...
yes. i have seen over desert sand..white.. silver.. and i believe gold.. i cant recall seing one over sunburst but everyone says that happened.
