Joe Bonamassa Skinnerburst

[Beano Geno]

Anyone else think that these two examples do not match the original?
Carve, color and cutaway ??

That picture is too dark for me to tell much of anything other than they are Les Pauls.

As a matter of fact .... The tops by enlarge surpass the original. As a matter of fact the aging is quite good and as a matter of fact the neck shape is quite accurate. :salude

But as a matter of fact the world judges everything through the eyes of a crude slightly blurry iPhone photo. :bigal

I got mine a while ago, I think it looks just like the real thing.

Man, I love this guitar. I have always had a thing for that faded top. What a beauty.

That's a Big ol' 10-4 Joe. I've had an aged/signed one ordered from wildwood for a month now. Tighten up on signing these bad boys so I can stroke that player.:dude:

The ones I have seen that have been photographed well are pretty killer.....as a matter of fact. My intent was just to show the progress of production. Like I said Joe, I hope you didn't mind. :dude:

I've just seen and played the VOS Skinner Burst and IMO it's looks, feels, sounds and plays amazing. The wood grain and figuring/flame in the top was killer. The neck was super comfortable, super fast and very easy to play. The color was IMO the best I've seen Gibson do on the CC/artist run of the lemons so far.

Oh and the best part of it all is that the tone was incredible. Not sure how well they matched the pickups to the original but IMO Gibson did a great job with these pickups. Very clear, articulate, sustain for days, aggressive sounding when needed and very balanced overall.

Just a killer guitar IMO. I plan on picking one up if possible.

Yeah, no forearm wear spot on the Skinner Burst. Killer looking guitar though. :dude:

Mike, is that the aged/signed? Just wanting to know when to expect mine.

I believe you have to use an external hosting site (like Photobucket for example) to post pictures. You can't do it directly from your pictures saved on your computer or cell phone.

 

[MikeSlub]

Mike, is that the aged/signed?

Yes.

 

[Fried okra]

Any day now you'll be mine. Please be careful crossing the Mississippi coming from Colorado.:applaude

 

[Beano Geno]

Very nice, Fried okra!!
