FS/FT - Stig Built Single Cut SOLD and Gibson Les Paul True Historic R7 (Withdrawn)

What's Hot

edited August 2018 in Guitars £
Recently purchased this from @jimmyguitar and have flip flopped on it ever since it arrived. Ultimately I think I prefer my True Historic, and could do with the money for something else. A stunning 59 replica, built to the exact specifications, including the woods and tooling, by the luthier known only as Stig. Fitted with Wizz PAFs, it's an absolutely gorgeous guitar weighing in at just over 9lbs on my bathroom scales.

Way too good to be left in the case (which is an old chainsaw protector with a very worn handle!)

Trades possible (guitars/amps)

Collection on from Hinckley. 

£4500 SOLD







Bit of a life laundry continues and I've decided to stick to just my Ryder Les Pauls. So I'm also selling my R7.

2017 Gibson Les Paul True Historic 1957 Reissue - WTHDRAWN

Without doubt the best Les Paul I've owned - but just not getting used. The articulation and clarity on this one is amazing - and it's not just me that thinks so. Several fretboarders have played this and been very impressed.

It's in superb condition and has all the case candy. It is missing a pickguard screw though (guard is currently off). 

£4500

I'd take a Lazy J20 in part exchange.

I'll get more pics after the weekend.

Cheers!

    Whaaat?! Surely you know it’s heresy to prefer an actual Gibson to a replica?!  ;)

    The Stig looks lovely though, GLWTS.

    Had the pleasure of playing this last week, very much one of the best LP’s around, sounds old and looks incredible. If I had cash it would be mine. I hope it stays on the forum!

    Yep, if I still had the money i’d be buying it back. It’s a stunning LP and sounds incredible.

    Whilst I do not object to replica guitars, being the owner of a Terry Morgan myself, I’m surprised and encouraged that this ad is being allowed. 

    I thought the pitchforks would have been out by now.

    Nice guitar.

    I guess it’s ok because we can’t see a faked headstock logo!

    It’s all good I think. Your pictures are discreet, we all know what it is.

    It’s good to know that if I ever come to sell my TM replica, I can offer it here first.

    So long as there’s no pics of the ‘Morgan’ logo!  ;)

    Stunning sounding, playing & looking instrument from the best vendor you’ll buy from. If I had the spare funds I’d already own it.

    If it's got a Gibson logo on the headstock and isn't a Gibson then the rules are very clear.
