• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

Got her home today and it is a bad ass!!! I just plugged into my Marshall Bluesbreaker, run through an old Ibanez delay and an overrated special overdrive pedal and boom!!! Tone machine. And it is a beaut, to boot.

Are the Schallers period appropriate? Made in W. Germany?

Beautifully done!

Yes sir made in the 70's. The sperzels were not as good, so we went with Shallers. Thanks. :salude

Some questions need not be asked.:hmm

I'd say it was a better clone than Phil's. Fried that is spooky good. After some serious playing on it you'll meld into the aging and it's gonna be just SUPERNATURAL!!!:hank:hank

Impressive looking "Greenie" replica ... Has it got a biggish/more full neck like the original?

I thought the aged MF's run that Gibson did looked a collectable guitar for the Peter Green or Gary Moore enthusiast.

Congrats and doubtless you will enjoy it.

SORRY, guys!
(should have known myself.) :peace2
Nevertheless, great works. Must be quite a feeling to see it come to life step after step.
Btw:
guess the metallica-guy should have a close look at his aquisition to make sure it wasn't (accidently) mixed up!

love it, great work! (old thread I know). When did Phil Harris get a Greeny replica? I thought he just demoed the original one?
