Mickbarbee Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 Scored this on the E- YAay last week during the debate- seemed like to good of a deal to pass up. (At least that's how I sold the idea after the fact to my wife). I pulled the control cover off and it's loaded with SD '59's. Should be a good compliment with the 535 with SL's. Please let the GAS stay in remission - I can't afford rehab!
FredZepp Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 Wow... that has a great look. OSB finish perhaps? A 150 with '59's will rock and roll..... enjoy! and Congrats ...
Mickbarbee Posted October 13, 2012 Author Posted October 13, 2012 It is an OSB - haven't seen to many of those. Thanks FredZepp! - and yes, I did get my tickets this morning for the "Celebration Day" show/movie at my local IMAX- can't wait!
Billgelder Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 Nice top. But help a newbe what is OSB. I know Burst thanks
Gillnetter Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 that is nice! I have 59's on my 150 and it is awesome.
FredZepp Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 Nice top. But help a newbe what is OSB. I know Burst thanks Old Style Burst
tulk1 Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 Looks more quilty than flamey, eh? Nice. My very first Heritage was an H157 in OSB w/59s. That one brings back memories, for sure.
heritagefan7 Posted October 14, 2012 Posted October 14, 2012 A true classic...and a beautiful example. Nice pick up...Congratulations!
2bornot2bop Posted October 14, 2012 Posted October 14, 2012 Viewing the backdrop I thought S. Cal'. Nice shots! The guitar's color is classic cool!
bolero Posted October 14, 2012 Posted October 14, 2012 yeah very cool house do you have a resident wizard, who lives in that tower? I thought I could see Jimmy Page peering out thru the window
FredZepp Posted October 14, 2012 Posted October 14, 2012 ........... Thanks FredZepp! - and yes, I did get my tickets this morning for the "Celebration Day" show/movie at my local IMAX- can't wait! Celebration Day should be great ! ... I like the latest teaser from the movie, featuring "Rock and Roll" ..
Mickbarbee Posted October 14, 2012 Author Posted October 14, 2012 yeah very cool house do you have a resident wizard, who lives in that tower? I thought I could see Jimmy Page peering out thru the window I wish He did - I can assure you the resident wizard is a hack - at best! Maybe with the new axe, i can convince some talent to come and haunt the place for awhile - It is almost Halloween! And thanks for the cool house comment- it's a 1927 with great character - especially the "coffin" shaped door - the first i've seen.
tbonesullivan Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 I miss having NGDs. Having a full stable does have it's downsides I guess. But, I do learn to appreciate the guitars I have more. Anyway, that is one SMOKING guitar. I love the finish on that, and it just looks classy, and plays every bit as good as it looks I'd Imagine.
Blunote Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 ^^Like Slammer, I too am GAS free. Like you, I miss NGDs
tbonesullivan Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 ^^Like Slammer, I too am GAS free. Like you, I miss NGDs well... I have NBD's instead. I'm currently spec'ing out a custom Carvin Bass (my second) and waiting for my Stingray 5 to get to the factory for repairs to the preamp. So, it'll be like another NBD when the SR5 comes back and sounds like it should, and then another when the custom carvin comes. But in general, I think after this bass, I'll be just about set. Might sell off a few more guitars, and maybe by SB-2 bass. Not having an active preamp is kinda killing it for me on that bass. If only G&L would put out an SB-2 that had an active preamp.
