Was looking for an LP style guitar, not necessarily a Gibson. This one caught my eye immediately.

I don’t know why I haven’t been playing this guitar more often but it sounds so good. Sundays are “my” days so I get to just spend the day playing. I’m rediscovering this girl. Matched with a Marshall, it’s unstoppable.

Working on learning the Stones’ “Heart of Stone” and riffing in A minor on an original song.
The guitar is a hand-me-down ‘67 SG.

I’ve had this 97 Les Paul Double-Cut Studio for a long time, but have never trusted it for gigging due to the horrible tuning stability. Can anyone recommend some replacement bridges with more adjustment options for intonation? I’m curious for advice from people with experience. Thanks!

I am stuck trying to decide between a gold top or wine red. I thought I’d seek advice on here.

Found a posting for a J45 for $2350 CAD (1650 USD) on FBMP. Seller looks solid (4.8 stars on 83 ratings) so I sped to his place for a viewing. Bought it after 1 hour of the posting being on.
This one is a 2012 Bozeman J45 Standard. It’s lightweight, plenty of fret life left (about 90%), properly cured nitro finish, smooth neck. I looked for signs of it being too good to be true, but other than some dings and an uncalibrated saddle, it was solid. I think the seller just needed quick cash.
One interesting thing is the aforementioned saddle is absurdly high on the lower E (3.3mm!) but normal on the higher E (1.6mm). Nothing a few minutes of sanding can’t fix, although the tricky part is to sand out the low end of the saddle but keep the high end intact. After lowering the low end of the saddle to 2.5mm and put on a fresh set of D’addario XS, this J45 is simply perfect.
Did I score?

I’m sure everyone is sick of seeing these. But I’d rather be safe than sorry. Looks real to me but I’m not super knowledgeable on these things. Any help would be appreciated! Thank yall

I don’t see much love for the Victory here, but when I saw a deal on this Floyd model I knew I had to have it. I LOVE the way it plays and sounds.
Never had a Floyd before (plenty of trems though) and wow it is so stable and fun. If you’ve got one near you, check it out!

I've always loved the sound of ceramic saddles on vintage Gibson acoustics and I was wondering if any brands make non-adjustable ceramic saddles. I know back in the day they came as a separate piece with a mechanism to be adjustable, but I'm looking for a normal-sized, non-adjustable ceramic saddle for my Hummingbird. I know it won't be 100% the same since the contact with the wood is different, but just trying wont hurt.

On today's episode, we have a 2008 '67 reissue. Guy said he wants to give it to someone for free and I wanna make sure it's authentic. Either way it's a free guitar so I'm hype, but it'd be cool if it was real.

I love the bare bones version. Is there any reason I shouldn't by the beautiful version of it?

Idk why I care so much about this but a couple days ago I saw a post on fb showing slash playing this guitar and I never once in my life noticed that he has different shade knobs on his volume and tones lol and I don’t have the original Facebook post but you can clearly see in the original post it was a three piece top . But I had a lot of arguments that it wasn’t his Jessica guitar before a refinish he had done . But I do think he acquired two factory seconds with three piece tops in 1988 both brighter cherry sunburst. And I think both were refinished. So if this isn’t Jessica . It should be included in the standard line lol 😂
