Fender Strat '62 AVRI and Gibson Les Paul '59 RI
Lovely Vic! Tell me a bit more about your R9... Vital stats, what case is that that it is sitting in etc.
Hi Shaun...thanks....it's a 2006, tobacco burst, dark back. It's just under 9pounds.... IIRC. Stock pups....The case is a RI Lifton case. Certainly the most resonant of all my LP's.shaunf wrote: Lovely Vic! Tell me a bit more about your R9... Vital stats, what case is that that it is sitting in etc.
Wow....that strat....where did you find it?
Awesome. Have you been following the developments on the Historic line with regard to improvements in vintage correctness? Must say, the 2013 models I've seen so far are pulling at my heart strings...Vic wrote:Hi Shaun...thanks....it's a 2006, tobacco burst, dark back. It's just under 9pounds.... IIRC.

I'm aware of the small improvements ito of vintage correctness...must say these okes at Gibson should have got it right looong time ago.. LOL ! You're right the newer releases are awesome but not much different to ours.shaunf wrote:Awesome.

Hi Vic, I have got more Strats than anything else but my preference (at the moment anyhow) is Teles.Vic wrote:Hi Ajile.... thanks. I notice you like Strats a bit more than Teles hey.... ?ajileguitar wrote: Yes, a couple of nice toys you have there. 8)
Maybe one day I'll shock everyone and get a LP... ?
Alain, an LP will "complete" your "near perfect" collection ...... ? Oh, and it has to be a CUSTOM ...... ?ajileguitar wrote:Hi Vic, I have got more Strats than anything else but my preference (at the moment anyhow) is Teles.Vic wrote:Hi Ajile.... thanks.

@ Aubs and Vic....A Custom heh... Well if I ever do buy one I'm not sure I would go that far. Probably a little expensive for my first LP. But yours Aubs, is a real beauty, that's for sure.Vic wrote:I'll support Aubs' line of thought ! ?Aubs1 wrote:Alain, an LP will "complete" your "near perfect" collection ...... ?

It would probably end up being a flame top like Vics. (in appearance anyhow).
