Having trouble taking care of business? or just a general feeling that Broadway ain't funky no more? If your babys coming back and you want to sock some lovin' at her then Bobbys thing could be your thing - for onl;y £3000. C'mon don't be so mean, it's a wonderful night for love

etc etc

Gibson's are a beautiful guitar anyway, but this one's a bit more special methinks....

Wow a nice retro Gibson with provenance ! Gibson still make a version of this guitar now called an Es 339, which goes to show how the design has stood the test of time.

Best Regards Ritchie.

My lad plays lead guitar in a band...he plays the Les Paul

Yep, lovely looking and a great sound I used to play bass in a 60's garage band (The Nicks - we were awful ) and our guitarist used one of these - sounded awesome fuzzed up!

Hello Richie,

Yes it's amazing how the design had stood the test of time. Vintage models (or hand-built custom remakes) are very in-demand because you don't get such great tones with modern factory-produced guitars.

My cousin Steve has the same model. He builds custom guitars and amps and repairs vintage models. He's just made me a Fender Precision bass to the original specification ...which is older than I am.

Best regards,

Paul

That is the first Gibson I have seen that I have liked. You just couldn't play that though - it'd have to be for show.

Most Gibson's / Les Paul's are too bulky & ugly - the bodies are too fat & heavy. Fender Strat / Ibenez are a much nicer shape. But hey, if anyone's got a spare £3k I wouldn't turn my nose up at it....

(would probably change the pick up's though!)
