• 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!

Hi there,

I discovered the name and address of the (I guess) first owner of my 1949 ES-5N! It was written under the trussrodcover. It's Mr. Irvin F. Lynn of 97 Saint Joseph Avenue (Apt 2) in Buffalo, NY. I would live to get in touch with him! The guitar was for sale at a dealer in NY and they said that they had it from the original owner who bought it new in 'upstate NY'. So that story matches with the address. The guitar now is in Europe (The Netherlands). Please help finding mr. Lynn or perhaps one of his relatives!

I see he has three court records listed ...one for a stolen Gibson guitar...

Well, I actually was hoping to get an email-address or so...or perhaps of one of his younger relatives...
