Guitars I can't afford!

Guitars I can't afford........
Part of being a guitar nerd is going to music stores with the intention of deliberately wasting the sales clerks time. Thanks to my Brother Joe @ Gallins Blackburn for allowing me to play these babies!

First guitar is a 54 black beauty with a Bigsby. It has an alnico 5 pickup in the neck and a P-90 in the bridge. This is by far mine and my brother Joe's favorite guitar in the shop. It's a fat sound, but it's still stringy. Almost Gretsch like but with a much nicer feel. What do you think?

1958 Korina Les Paul serial number 22 of 100 made.

Pickup 1,2,3 and All!

To commemorate a limited run of these guitars built in 1958, Gibson only re released 100 worldwide.

 

Goldtop Deluxe with Mini-buckers. Bloody gorgeous thing!

59 Les Paul VOS

Just listen to the sustain and warmth of this thing!

You can go have a bite and come back and it'll still be playing!

Ace Frehley Custom Shop.

This is an exact replica of Ace's early 70's Les Paul Custom.

Despite having three pickups only the Bridge pickup works (for real).

This is how Ace likes it.

What an idiot! LOL

RRP $15,999 (WOW)

Made in the custom shop in Memphis this Baby is TONE!
It's bloody nice to look at too. I also like it cause it makes me look normal sized hehehe!!!

 Les Paul Axcess with a Floyd Rose Tremelo.
Dive bombs, Trem flutters and Elephant Noises can all be achieved with this baby! Neal Schon would be proud! :-)

Unlike most Les Paul's this baby has a maple fingerboard. It also has active EMG 81 in the neck and an EMG 85 in the Bridge. She's an aggressive little bugger.  You're looking around 8k for one of these babies! Ummm no thanks!
However it does match my shirt hehehehe!!!

Thanks to Matt for taking the pictures and filming using my Iphone.
