givemeasmile Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Hi everyone,Looking to invest in a Gibson of some sort.Looking for a Les Paul really, but can't afford one of the high end ones, been looking at studios and had a shot of one the other day, really liked it.Melody makers are pretty cool and I wouldn't pass up on an SG. Let me know what you have.I have a japan thinline tele for sale here if you're interested in a swap deal of some sort.http://www.aberdeen-music.com/forums/equipment/65116-sale-fender-japan-thinline-telecaster-chorus-pedal.html#post901511ThanksDaryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsby Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 If you do save up I have a nice Standard that I might be persuaded to part with, but it will be a bit more than a Studio. It's the one with humbuckers in this pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonhenry Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 '64 Concert. 4x10's, 40 watts... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bac Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 Cheers. Bit heavier than I'd be interested in, I'm afraid. Looking for something easier on the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonhenry Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 naw it isn't that heavy, it's got the smaller trannies in it because it's the non-reverb one.But I also have a couple of old bassman heads- 40 watts, sound killer and light as a feather!

bac Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 any of you guys gona sell me a gibson? you could PM each other y'knowSorry for hijacking yr thread. I have a very nice Gibson 339 but I don't think it's what you're looking for and anyway I'm not looking to sell. In fact I'm looking for a short-scale, humbucker guitar myself, kinda have it narrowed down to a PRS DGT or Singlecut or a Les Paul Axcess.Son Henry, don't know what it weighs but surely 4 x 10 isn't going to be light? I was thinking of a Deluxe Reverb or maybe a Vibrolux, something a bit more portable than my Music Man 65 (which isn't all that heavy itself, to be honest).I know the Bassmans are legendary amps but I don't know too much more about them tbh. And I'd have to buy a cab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsby Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Congrats. More details please.I'm not particularly looking to sell mine for what it is it is probably the "best" guitar I own. The music I'm playing mostly these days (country) just doesn't really lend itself to the Lester though, shame to have it sitting in a cupboard.

givemeasmile Posted May 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 It's a red studio custom with silver hardware and white volume nobs/scratchplate looks pretty sweet. I know its not a standard but a step in the right direction I guess, besides I managed to wing it for like 490 bucks so I'm sure I'll profit on it even if i dont like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Studios are good guitars - the construction is basically the same as the Standards (or whatever they call them these days), mainly just cheaper aesthetics, no flame top or binding etc. Different pickups too but the pickups in the Studio are good in their own right.
