Title: Potential NGD
Post by: MikeB on February 04, 2017, 09:18:22 PM
Found my next guitar.  Just need to convince my wife that we should sell the house so that I can buy it.

Hey Mike, Nice  :thumb-up: , much the same as my JPLP (albeit mines a 2006 copy/re-issue (with a nicer neck contour)).  Needs a set of grovers though LoL I wonder if they'd throw those in. Crap that's a big price tag though  :facepalm: .  Mmm House, wife, happy life vs 59 LP, it's a hard one  :dunno: .

Only if it has $299,000 in the case it comes with.   ::)

Sorry.  NO plank of wood with wires and bits of plastic and metal is worth that kind of money regardless of whatever noise it might make.  >:(  Even if I was stupidly rich beyond imagination, there's no way would I even consider spending that much on a guitar.

My 2 cents.....(adjusted to be about $20,000 here because somebody might actually consider it...)

One would hope that at that price it would at least come with a gig bag.

Now this looks interesting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPc6fOYoNTY, not sure how it would go on a LP with carved top but cool on a SG.

Kahler has a model that would attach to Gibson style bridge and tailpiece poles.

Looks like a little routing a still needed, but not all the way through the guitar body at least...

Don't care about routing...you'll need to route a hole for batteries for EMG pickups...  :banana-rock:
