  1. It even occurred to me that in some issues there could be a guitar pick used by that guitar player who used the Les Paul. Or any collectible item eg setlist replica concert ticket replica, guitar strap etc. What do you care about?
  2. Hi! I brought a new Les Paul to add to the Les Paul armada of the Gibson Collector's choice series. This is Joe Bonamassa's Skinner Burst. This model was originally planned in the cc series but eventually became just a smooth Custom shop replica. So it was not part of the cc series, it was a separate replica. I brought some videos. In the first video, Joe Bonamassa talks about the guitar, in the second, a little interview with Joe Bonamassa's sound technician for fun and further videos about the guitar. Also, I have an idea even in the magazine field. Collecting a Les Paul is a maximum of 10 magazine issues. Minimum maybe 5. It also depends on the distribution of parts. I don't know exactly that. The point is to assume the first cc model is Greeny. This was used by Peter Paul, Gary Moore. This Les Paul is currently owned by Metallica's solo guitarist Kirk Hammett (now). The magazine could include biography articles about the guitarist who used the guitar, the history of Les Paul, the history of the Gibson guitars, the history of the electric guitar, its evolution, the history of other guitar brands such as Fender, Gretsch, etc.https://youtu.be/4rHmdQzI-As https://youtu.be/1JEQ9LWyoQg https://youtu.be/kHjGhOnECEo https://youtu.be/vM5D6dau-u0 http://es.gibson.com/Products/Electric-Guitars/Les-Paul/Gibson-Custom/Joe-Bonamassa-Skinnerburst-1959-Les-Paul.aspx
  3. Hi! I brought some new pictures and videos of Gibson CC # 37 aka Carmelita (9-1953) On the first video Joe Bonamassa plays the original. He has an amazing playing technique. 😁
  4. You're not alone! I would love a 1955 F150 even with a worn paint. It was like standing in a stable for decades. Historical piece.
  5. Hi as I wrote in a previous idea it would be nice to have a few ship models. In true / quarter scale, this scale thing is just a fantasy ... But let's get to the point. My ideas include H.M.S Victory, the Vasa galleon, a Sea of thieves game, a galleon, Black Pearl, San Juan Bautista galleon. the latter is not that big a ship.
  6. The Devastator or Firestorm,Defiant would be very cool. I was thinking of adding a display to the ship that would represent the Kuat Drive Yards. Thus giving the impression that the ship is now being built. It comes fresh from the dock. Tell me what scale did you think? What do you think is the largest scale in which this could be created?
  7. Ohh anyway yes !!! The Star Destroyer! Do you mean imperial 1, venator or sith star destroyer?
  8. Thanks! And the Death star2 great too😁
  9. What do you think of a 1:10 or 1: 4 scale.😂 If you could support it? 🤔 Actually, a pirate ship would be good like a black pearl or some famous galleon. etc I read about the 1: 4 scale model on the website I copied here but I don't know where it is right now. And that's where the 1: 1 is. A monster can't just disappear like this. I am very curious about the 1: 4 because the picture is black and white and in the water, I can't limit how big it really is.
  10. Hi everybody! Deagostini, Hachette have released several model ships over the years eg HMS Suprise, Soleil Royal etc. However, I just came up with some boat mockup ideas. These ideas are just sailing ships. A pirate ship like Queen's Revenge or Black Pearl or any galleon would be a good idea. Or HMS Victory. These ships could be in Quarter Scale. Now you are wondering why I always think on such a large scale. I'll tell you why. The bigger the mockup you build the better the feeling of owning the real thing. (Although this may be just my foolishness) There is a lot more detail to show and I've never seen one before. However, it may not be possible to do such. And if it did, it would make a lot of money. I'm aware of that. I know that impossibility is just as interesting. Interestingly I show you a web page. This site is a HMS Victory fan site. I found that they were making museums 1: 24,1: 4, but they even made a 1: 1 scale model. Worth a look.😉https://www.hmsvictory.de/web/index.phtml/Large-scale--Models-of-HMS-VICTORY--1765---V-05--id_5010.html?PHPSESSID=64f93529f2ec07969355a3e4c19f0d0a
  11. Hi! I understand! Thanks for the reply! Thank you for being on your list! 😁
  12. Hi General Lou! I brought back some CC models. In the first video, Joe Bonassa plays on Les Paul, the replica of which is the first piece in the CC series. In the second video I brought back the video of the first burst (8 3087) Yes. This piece has grown a lot to my heart. This is what I love most. Please post feedback on what else I can do for the series and to help the team! https://youtu.be/vdR84nuorZo https://youtu.be/0UxveANlrYQ https://youtu.be/ivwFVqyTTsg https://youtu.be/w61126QUTOg https://youtu.be/MZNwlYEOvzc https://youtu.be/ebG4pCG60Dk
  13. Hi General Lou! I have a few questions about your future projects. I saw on the site that there will be ship models as well. Do you know anything about these? The scale? And what kind of ship will the replica look like? I'm very curious! My second question is, if you can tell me what this is going to be? When I first visited your site, I was already paying attention to it. What could this be? WayKnight's Armor? Or a superhero statue? ... Super Snake is stunning! Wonderfully beautiful and detailed. I watched the Good Year wheel test very beautiful on Whitewall!
  14. Hi General Lou! I would like to ask what can I do to help you and your team with the CC series? Continue to send information? photos, videos? I'm trying to do my best to help!
  15. The original Les Paul Model featured a gold finish from its introduction in 1952 until it received a new cherry sunburst in 1958 along with a new name, "Les Paul Standard." It debuted at the July 1958 Music Industry Trade Show in Chicago but it didn't catch on until its beautiful appearance and resonant properties inspired the likes of Keith Richards, Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, Mike Bloomfield, Duane Allman, Peter Green, Joe Walsh, Joe Perry — and eventually Slash — to perform with one. And although Slash uses his beat-up 1958 Les Paul Standard regularly in the studio, he didn’t know until a recent discovery that it was a hugely important piece of guitar history. Shipping records confirm that Slash's guitar (serial #8 3096) was actually sent to that historic 1958 Music Industry Trade Show as one of the first two sunburst Les Pauls ever made and the first ever to feature a two-piece center-seamed maple top, a key feature of the Les Paul Standard.Original shipping record from May 28th, 1958 showing the first two “Special Finish” Sunburst Les Pauls. #8-3096 had a two-piece, center-seam maple top just like a production Les Paul Standard model have while the other, #8-3087, had a three-piece off-center maple top and was likely intended to be a goldtop Les Paul. That makes Slash’s guitar the first production Les Paul Standard model! So, this year Gibson Custom and Slash set out to capture the magic, vibe and history of #8-3096 for a special run of replicas. It was perhaps the most advantageous and laborious guitar recreation project Custom Shop has ever undertaken given the extreme finish checking, wear and corrosion of the original, not to mention the exact replication of the neck dimensions, colors and construction. The resulting prototype was sent to Slash and his reaction made all the painstaking work worth it: “Mind-blowing. I couldn’t have possibly wanted anything more.”
  16. Hi General Lou! I've got some interesting new information about the first two bursts! 8 3087 and the second 8 3096 currently used by Slash! 8 3087: The penultimate line includes 8 3087 and 8 3096. It also means that these two guitars are the two earliest real Burst. Number two, 8,3096 today, is owned by Slash. Both will probably be shown at the summer NAMM fair (where the Explorer and Flying V will debut). There was a small but important difference from the later Burstök: since they were highlighted from the Goldtop guitars, their maple covers were not bookmatched, as Goldtop did not look like this, but was just released. The 8 3096 consists of two pieces, but it is not mirrored and not in the middle, and the 8 3087 consists of three pieces. No. 8,3087, which was the first Burst after the NAMM, went to Gibson's Memphis dealer, O.K. Houck - bought by Scotty Moore and Elvis. Towards the end of 1958, however, it was not such a big name that opened the store, but a 14-year-old boy, Tom Griffiths, with his father. The boy liked the new Les Paul, so his father bought him, along with a Gibson amplifier.Tom Griffiths at 8 3087 in 1959. Tom used the guitar in his high school band, and some repairs were done: the jack disc was broken so it was replaced (which was quite normal), and one of the tuning keys was bent so it was replaced (this is a common occurrence). In the late fifties, the Kluson Deluxe key rotary knob was made of a plastic material that, over a few decades, blended like a raisin and eventually dusted. Of course, they did not know this at the time of manufacture, but the defect became apparent relatively quickly, so from the 1960s on, they used a different composition of plastic that did not shrink. The picture shows that the G key, which was replaced in 1963, was made with a new key, but the other five keys were rendered unusable. These buttons really literally get dusty in one's hands, so since the pictures were taken, the guitar has been given new buttons to use. The usual thing happened with the guitar: Tom played on it for a few years, then put it aside. Later, his raised son sometimes took him out, but overall the instrument didn't see much sunlight.In 2016, he was finally admitted to Walter Carter's Nashville store, which happens to be one of Gibson's own historians and few know more about the Gibson.
  17. Hi! I wonder what else I can do to help you and the team?
