Han asked:


I saw a vintage guitar the other day. I can’t seem to find it, but I remember the first letters of the brand was:

Wur…..

He said something about them specializing in organs and stuff. It was an acoustic guitar, had an arch top on the back, (Simular to the Gibson Les Paul Arch tops, but this one was on the back instead of the front.)

Double skunk-stripes on the middle of the neck all the way past the headstock.

Set neck. Natural Color.

Thanks.

solastyr asked:


Hi,

I have a gibson LP studio vintage mahogany. It’s by far the best guitar i’ve ever owned tonewise but it seems to suddenly get way flat at and above the 12th fret. Has anyone had similar problems with the LP? If so, how do you fix it? I’m a mechanic so I won’t have any problem doing the repair myself, I just don’t know what to adjust here.

Thanks in adv…

George T asked:


just a question about which of these two guitars to get

1. Gibson Les Paul Studio Electric Guitar
or
2. Gibson Les Paul Vintage Mahogany Electric Guitar

here’s a link that compares both http://www.musiciansfriend.com/compare?base_pid=517030&base_pid=517536

so i know that the studio is probably better because it’s more expensive (though i could be wrong), but is it a better buy for the money?

a friend’s brother said i should i should get the mahogany because it’s a better value, and i trust him, but i just wantd a few more opinions to see what other people would choose

kairvette asked:


I am planning on buying whole-sale Gibson strings for my new LP std 07 cause they are quite bit cheaper. But I don’t know which one I should get. The choices being 1. Humbucker 2. brite wires 3.vintage. I am not quite sure which one comes with my LP. But I did notice the original strings are actually different on LP standards at GC. So what are the essential difference between them?? Which is the best? Thanks!
I am only interested in Gibson strings. By LP Std, I mean a gibson Les paul standard.

Which electric guitar shoud I get?

fo shizzle asked:


I am just a beginner, so it has to be easy to play. but here’s the thing, i dont like the look of the newer guitars, like the fender starcaster which is what i have now, I love the vintage look. But I cannot afford any of them, there like $1,000+ even on eBay (such as this one that I really like http://cgi.ebay.com/VINTAGE-1973-GIBSON-LES-PAUL-CUSTOM-ELECTRIC-GUITAR_W0QQitemZ290246833640QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item290246833640)
Does anyone know where I can get a guitar like this but for under $300? I know I probably wont be able to get an original for this cheap, but maybe a remake that has that vintage look and good sound quality?

Thank you :D
