Bit of a teaser thread... I’ve managed to get my hands on a nice ‘burst replica
It’s built to ‘59 specs but with a larger R7 style neck
I’m taking a little bit of a risk because it’s currently 1600kms away so I’m buying blind, but the builder has a great reputation and the pics look great, plus it was a very fair price (I sold a couple of guitars to fund it) ... and it’s got his name on the headstock
it should arrive in time for Christmas - full review and more pics to follow, but here’s a taster (sorry, can’t get pics to embed on my phone)

Enjoy your great Christmas press
Looks to have plenty of character without having that OTT vibe

Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!

Price wise I had a good deal - i paid a fair bit less than new Gibson ‘60’s LP Std’s are selling for in UK shops at the moment - but a new build with him is not far off twice what I’ve paid for this
pics to follow and I’ll try to get a video clip up
