📚Description: I bought this from a collection of guitars a few months ago. It is a very nice example of the lesser-fancy spotlight finish known as Antique Sunburst. You can find these in a light ASB and a Dark ASB. While this one certainly looks closer to Dark ASB in photos, its border is quite a bit lighter than usual so it is kind of a blend of the two finishes - very cool. It also has an unusually High Gibson logo for this era, but as I track these guitars I've found a few more in the 83 140-160ish range with similar. So far they have all been a ASBL/D mix with PAF stickers.

@garettturbettmusic 24 дня назад

Having only one schaller on the top strap button makes sense to me, it’s the only spot that has a lot of tension trying to pull the strap off, the bottom is usually fine. That way you can do two guitars from one set of strap locks

@joermnyc 24 дня назад

My friend Mike played bass… at a gig both strap buttons ripped off at almost the same time! (One went and while he was gaffer taping the strap back on the other one went!!!)

Mt. Airy, North Carolina was Andy Griffith's home town and served as the prototype for Mayberry in his TV show.

And Andy had a signature Martin D-18 back when there were hardly any signature guitars

@robbysguitars8223 19 дней назад

@steveparish9210 in case people missed it, the sticker on the back of the headstock was from a music store in Mt. Airy.

@timaves1504 24 дня назад

There’s a perfectly good reason why the front strap button was replaced with a locking one… it’s the front one that tends to slip off when you’re playing! I ended up putting Planet Waves diamonds (reminiscent of the Gibson ones) on my Standard. Without them, l was terrified to take it on stage.

@yodatw 24 дня назад

The tiger stripes looks so good on this one! The wood is exceptional cuts. Just a beautiful overall look and I am sure in person it is even more amazing. Nice guitar.

@matthewf1979 24 дня назад

Trogly, the best fretboard cleaner and conditioner on the market is the Dunlop 01 and 02 with the brown label. By far the best I've used, and I've used a LOT of them. The cleaner cuts the gunk very quickly and the conditioner actually darkens rosewood.

@steveparish9210 19 дней назад

@haroldcampos9661 23 дня назад

The new knobs pop, but the old ones matched the finish. I think my first impression was they didn't go there!

For fretboards montys instrument food, a little goes a long way and makes an incredible job of the wood. They also do a darkening one too (but ive never used it). Can however highly rocomend the instrument food though if you can get it over there :)

@corporalrich 22 дня назад

Austin, try getting a Wallbot, it's a stud finder that acts as an xray machine for finding studs and wires in walls.They are cheep and use your cellphone as the screen. It might work to shorw the weight relief chambering.

I hope you realize that you buy and put guitars in your collection take away what they were meant for and that is to be played and heard witch I think it takes away from the soul of the guitar and the music that could have been produced from that guitar. I love your show and all the info about Gibson Les Paul's and other guitars , but sometimes think your taken away the true sprit of the instrument and the possibility that could have come from it. Peace
