Joshua asked:


I know Les Paul’s always have what they call “medium jumbo”, but I don’t know if Gibson used a smaller fret size similar to what Fenders used on their guitars in the 50′s. I’ve never been able to see or feel a real Gibson ES-150 or a vintage L-5. I think the newer L-5 models and ES-175 have frets similar to a current Les Paul.

I have a gibson electric guitar, 1980′s vintage designed by Charvel. Blonde quilt top and gold kahler hardware. Pick up config is h/s/s. 24 fret hockey stick neck. Can someone help me identiy it? Jon

There are no fine tuners, just two screws to raise the bridge on the High E and Low E sides. I am getting insane amounts of buzz, and when I can manage to get the buzz to go away *even a little*, the intonation is terrible. The neck has just been shimmed, and a new zero fret has been installed. What do I do? I love this guitar, and I’m desperate.
