WTB: Early LS-80

[3pupLPC]

Preferably a 78-80 Les Paul Reborn, but fine with Reborn Old. Goldtop or 'burst. In North America a plus.

 

[Jamest]

Yes! You are hooked. Good choice.

 

[Mono]

haha is this after seeing a spate of them on MLP?
they look to be lovely guitfiddles though

 

[jacco]

Sure about the '78-'80 period Doug? Late '79 to mid '81 seems to be the best period regarding the choice of (tone) woods.

Let's feed the fire......

 

[Jamest]

Yeah spikey, feed the fire with probably the nicest looking top I've ever seen on an LS-80. You'd better not let that one go. Stunning.

I'd also agree with Jacco and say don't limit yourself to '78-'80. I think the '81 Love Rocks are amazing guitars and not missing in anything that Reborn or Reborn Old would give you (except a little less money!).

 

[3pupLPC]

yeah, that's it guys... twist the knife

Is that the one that went from YJ, to the PacNW, then Down Under? Beauty.

Actually, I've been shopping for one for at least 3 years, but I can never seem to win, or see even see the auction of ones I want before its over.

 

[3pupLPC]

Is that solid?

 

[hunter]

PM SENT.........

 

[Jamest]

3Pup, you are mistaking my LS-80 that I got from a member here and sent to Australia in trade for a Greco. This one off YJ is in my possession now.
I'd be happy to help you find one if you shoot me a PM with your budget...

I dunno it's history? Yes, the top is solid and it's the best LP I've ever owned.
Always get's attention at gigs.

 

[3pupLPC]

NGD coming soon boys! It's a couple weeks away yet, but I am patient....
James, very similar to that one you have there

Thanks everyone who made offers.
