STUDENT NEWSLETTER 8 May
2007 
I hope this letter finds you all happy, and healthy.
May and spring has sprung. Remember to unplug your amps during a storm. Might not be a good idea to be playing an electric guitar when lightning is in the area if you can help it. Time to go unplugged! Practice on the acoustic guitar for a while.
The last SG was so fine I just had to get another. On the way from Canada is a very special 1986 USA Gibson SG.
Last Sunday a student found me a great 1980 Gibson SG. Arctic White yet! VERY hard to find! Thanks Scott! Here Wednesday is a real 1980 USA Gibson SG from Florida! You don't see these much anymore. Like a Les Paul only THREE POUNDS lighter. 100% original down to the 'chainsaw' case. This guitar started off Arctic White over the past three decades it now looks more like banana yellow! It is my new most favorite guitar.
Best Gibson ever just in from Minnesota 1985 Gibson Les Paul Custom in super rare Ferrari Red with Gibson "crank tuners". This might be the prettiest red Les Paul I have ever seen. The gold is hardly tarnished. The abalone inlayed fret markers are iridescent.
NOTICE! I have prevailed in the case against the crooked Canadian Fake Gibson seller on Ebay.
Out of the many guitars I have bought on eBay that was the worst deal ever.
The search for the perfect tone never ends. But after years of consideration, trial and error this is my rig more or less. It is not easy to find the original vintage stuff anymore, so this is the new equivalent.
