I'm No Charlie D, but I Tried.... My 1957 Goldtop.

[blewsbreaker]

Wonderful guitar and in great condition. I like these darkbacks. :dude:

How is the tone of this one?

Great tone. Lot's of clarity and sustain with these lower output paf's which I've learned to love. Can't get enough of that big clean tone through a Deluxe Reverb or Vibrolux with JBL's. It does the cranked Marshall thing pretty good too.

Love it.....I've got to get me a nice GT.

Enjoy it!

Looks great. We all have a lot to learn as far as photography compared to Charlie. Great looking guitar. Post a clip?

I have a few low quality iPhone vids, still deciding if I wanna post. I should use my better camera with the mic attenuator, which would definitely sound better.

Oh yeah!! That'll work!!! :dude:

 

[sws1]

Dang, that's in great shape. Nice

Thanks for sharing.

A lot of middle-positions have "the flavor", and yet vary.
That one does Page's mid-pos to a T! :wow

Seriously, if'n it was just a random sound clip that I didn't know anything about,
I'da sworn it was Page's fiddle. NICE! :salude
