  1. Intriguing. What do you think? Will it fetch that much?

    How much do you think Dallas spends on new guitars for Edge (ie vintage instruments that are new to his arsenal)?

    Random: can private individuals like myself commission Gibson Custom Shop to build new guitars to spec? How much for one of these?

    Custom shop guitars (Gibson or Fender, or whoever) are pretty damn expensive man. If not for the guitar itself, you're paying for the extra effort and time taken put into the guitar. Plus i'm not sure you can actually order one from Gibson unless you're "somebody", but then again I could be WAY wrong here.

    You're probably better off trying to get your hands on the limited edition epiphon that has the same colour. Like the one I'm currently trying to sell....(that I've customed so it looks just like Edge's and I've had 70's T-Top replicas (Edge's uses T-Tops (supposedly) installed into it with those gold pickup rings...)
  3. yeah, individual made customs can end up giving you a pretty high bill. Something with more than 4 zeros I reckon. You're better going for a similar Epiphone as Alex says, or if you really crave for having the Gibson brand on the headstock of the guitar, go search some of the used cream Les Pauls around the usual guitar sites. But I don't think getting it built new for you would be an option.
  4. It's funny because after that story came out where Dallas got the package from Gibson containing the replica of Edge's Les Paul (the one he auctioned) I really thought that it would be put into mass production during the 360 tour. I know it's not Edge's most iconic guitar, but it's one he's probably used more than any other, and Gibson already had the specs down and a version produced. Even on a custom shop level I'm surprised they didn't make like 1000 and sell them at a high price. Weird.
  5. I've found a company that looks pretty cool. They sell a few pedals, but mainly kits with parts and parts... To build pedals on your own. Now I want to buy some shit and build something. They have an English version of their site too, anyone who thinks their stuff looks cool?

  8. Yeah, but it should also give you some possibilities that a normal wah doesn't give you... like really quick stuff. It should sound a bit original... I think trying new experimental stuff is the way to go to achieve your own sound. I think I'll get this when I'm in town. If I'm good at buildig pedals... I think I'll build a few more
  9. I'm selling my Edge-like Epiphone LPC. It has the gold schaller rings, the cream paintjob, and Manlius T-Top replicas (which honestly sound better than any other humbucker I've heard) and all in all it's just a hell of an axe. You're probably wondering why I'm selling it then! Well, fact of the matter is, along with this guitar I have my strat and my tele, and this one sits in my closet, and I've recently decided to pick up an electric drum kit (wanting to learn (they're low volume) and to use for recording). Selling this will kickstart the funding for that kit.

    I don't really have a price in mind, (if I had to say I'd be looking for $800 ) but keep in mind these are a bitch to find nowdays and it's been upgraded. PM with me with an offer and we'll discuss payment/shipping and all that jazz. Also, shipping from here (Canada) to you fellas in Europe is a super expensive venture for something like this. So if anyone really wants it who lives across the pond, be prepared to pay a boatload in shipping! (Just giving a heads up). I won't be offended if no one wants it though

    Comes with a hardshell case and the stock pickups if you want em'.

  10. I start tomorrow in a new job, so if you don't sell this BEAUTY soon, I will be PM-ing you in about two months or so
  11. That is a NICE guitar my friend. If I had a spare $800 I'd throw it right at you.
