Early Gibson 57's (inbetween Bill Lawrence cicuit board on back type and the PAF sticker on back ones)

So glad you got it safely :D You need the patience of saints with couriers, there all the same. Pack well and say a few prayers is all you can do.

Hi, here's his eBay member ID: h6038107 has good feedback hasn't being active lately though, cross check sales feedback with obseleteguitars.com guitars. may be a different guy selling on eBay for him hope it helps

Bought a guitar on ebay from him, everything went fine. The added middleman cost of $95 might have a negative effect on your bargain. Plenty of straight up deals around without that extra cost its a buyers market at the moment after all.

Sure I agree, never seen a solid top quilt "reissue" with fret binding etc..

93 OBG quilt top fret edge binding 57 pups veener top I'd imagine close though :)

Do Tokai not Plek and also CNC route their inlays eliminating the need for filler altogether, (round corners cant get a sharp corner with a drill bit I suppose) on newer guitars? Not a major concern for me, but sloppy inlay filler on a $$$ guitar should be a no no, although it can have a...

No Papal is very common on ebay.de (Germany) They seem to prefer bank transfers. I would calculate the fees into my price and offer Papal, its not worth losing the potential buyers, as much as I hate the idea of it.

Do'nt touch a twin too heavy too loud as said. (being there done that) A 2x12 will be heavy too, if you need to push air consider a head and cab. A 1X12 combo 30 watts or so is fine (with the highest quality speaker you can afford it makes a huge difference) never was a fan of 10" speakers

Thanks guys, its a very fine guitar I've promised to cut back to one or two acoustic guitars so I have to let her free.

Had this up before and pulled it but I do need to let her go. :cry: Ask any questions. 1994 Orville By Gibson ES-335 "Reissue" Gibson 57 classics Fret Edge Binding etc 1200 euro shipped to Europe/UK. more pics here...

I see he fluffed a few notes on "somewhere over the rainbow" on Jools Holland the other night it was pretty obvious even without the headslapping at the end :oops: at least he's human

theres a 54 orville on Rinkya at the moment (someone buy it for me :) ) love the tone this guy gets, p90's and that wrap bridge hmmm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UifarGFyHII

Seems to be a common problem I had a 93 FujiGen OBG with inlays falling out and some half lifting, very annoying as its not easy to fix, finding the right depth replacements, removing half lifting ones, sanding, filler etc, One for a potential buyer to be aware of and ask about. A reputable...

"five strings, three chords, two fingers and one *******" :) Very nice, love it, telecaster neck humbucker is a classic sound and the humbucker is correctly tight to the neck as Keiths Micawber (pity bout the weight)

Very nice, but that heel would make it a no no for me. Heres a similar OBG, very cool, but silly money surely? http://www.guitargai.com/html_folder/gai_orvilleC.html#

Yeah just goes to show you, buying an acoustic unseen/played is madness I learned my lesson the hard way. Thankfully I found a mint HD-28 locally which is going to the grave with me. :D

Hi, I tried a Orville by Gibson J-45 and loath to say it was disappointed, extremely well built, looked and felt like a 50's J-45. It did have nitro finish, the back and sides were laminanted. the top was supposedly solid but on very close inspection had a very very thin veneer over solid wood...

Hi, same amp bar the speakers/cometics. I had a tweed junior with the jensen speaker. The jenson won't break up as easily as the celestion, its kinda tighter/brighter, with well defined cleans. The celestion is probaly the more versatile all rounder. The upgraded speaker does make a big...

Sorry decided to keep, its so good I'd regret selling (cheaply too)
