Okay, so I posted this thread in the Sunburst Pub because I really wasn't sure where to post it... but it could have been posted in the Historic District as well... Anyways, I haven't been following Gibson recently and I'm not in the loop when it comes to the current product lines of Les Pauls...
MSRP from $2517 to $1998... When did this happen?

Why such a drop? Did Gibson change something to this model?
Is the neck narrower on a Standard SG than on a 61 RI SG? I played a 61 RI at the local store a while...
Hmmm... :hmm Very interesting forum discussing the art of metals and how to age different types of metals (I know, it sounds nerdy :peace2 ). This thread is on how to age metal guitar parts such as knobs, bridges, nickel pickup covers. Enjoy the reading...
Hi,
Was at a Tragically Hip show a few days ago and guitarist Paul Langlois took out an unknown (to me) Les Paul. I was wondering if anyone here knew what model it is. It had fairly large yellow and red stripes. Here are 2 pics of it (sorry for the bad quality - best I could do).
Some of...
Do you folks in bands use the same gear for gigs as for band practice? Or do you carry around your heavier amps at gigs only, or leave them in your practice studio? Let me know what you use for practice and gigs, I'm curious. :)

Hi,
Anyone had any experience running a Vox TonelabLE/SE effex processor or any other similar processor in front of a Tech21 Power Engine 60?
I already own a TM30 & am now looking for something with more wattage for band practice.
Thx,
Benny :mslim
Hi,
Has anyone here bought or played one of these new babies yet? I can't find any around here, they're always out and/or back order. How different is it from the Tonelab LE? Do you use it for home recording and gigs? Does it sound really warm or digital?
Thanks,
Benny :mslim

So, still not sure if you should buy that Les Paul Standard you've been dreaming of lately or not? :hmm Maybe this will help convince you... :biggrin:
Cool Standard Demo
Benny (not me playing by the way) :rolleyes:
Wow, (sorry if this is old news for your guys), I just read in the (Aug. 2005) Guitar Player that MXR is bringing back it's M-117(R) Flanger. Anyone here have one and how does it compare to the vintage and reissues?
Link to MXR's web page
I thought there was a discontinued component that...
Anyone planing on buying one of these?

Not on my list but it would be cool to own one - just for the fun of smashing it up at the end of the second set! :wail
Marshall just put the handwired series up on their website. Not many good pics or much info for the moment. :wha

Hey guys.
Just thought I'd let you know Tech 21 is putting out a Trademark 30 version in 2005. Same cab style as the TM10 (not the solid oak cabinet of the Limited Edition), only now in a 30 Watts version.
Check it out: http://www.tech21nyc.com/tm30.html
Hear it out...
Hi guys,
I'd like to install a set of Grovers on my 1983 Custom. The peghead hole mesures 10 mm (3/8") in diameter.
This is what I have on at the moment:
Anyone know what model I need and where to find them? Any idea if these will fit without having to redrill...
