The American Deluxe Tele w Pure Vintage '64's saw some action last night at a benefit for a friend who just had a brain tumor removed. It was basically Dirty Years, but with a different singer and lyrics. The Koffs played too. I think we raised a lot of cash.

The Guitar Pron Thread
I've had everything but a Telecaster put away in cases since I had company last month. Got the R8 out today to compare to pics, so I plugged in and played it when a friend came over to drum on some stuff we are working on. Sounds and plays great, but damn if it didn't get heavy after just a few, and I have a rather light 8-ish pounder.

Mine does have a really fat neck and it's my favorite thing about it. I looked at my headstock and your right, there's a little more clearance on the A & B strings. At some point they made a slight adjustment to those holes - probably a jig they made. Is the serial number stamp gone from yours? I don't see it and you mentioned it's had a previous refinish. If not, do you know what it is? I do love my R8, it's excellent guitar. Congrats on that beauty. Can't wait to see the process play out.

As the owner of an 2014 R8 clone, I'd like tonsee pics of the following just to compare. No rush, wait till it's opened up. A couple shots inside the control cavities - aside from the electonics, I've read the originals were routed on 2 planes seperately., Some pics of the pick up rings - the year after mine Gibson advertised they had changed them to be more like the originals. A good straight on headstock pic, front and back. Close pic of frett marker, binding, and side dots. Measurement upper and lower bout at the widest point and waist narrowest point (my friends 2002 R8 differs from mine slightly). Input jack. Also, for other reasons, document the finish as is so we have before and afters. That's off the top of my head.

The Guitar Pron Thread
I've actually been following the '58 story we have going on here, but somehow am in the dark about the bumblebee he mentions as the highlight of the thread?? I think that there's a poster here w an actual '59 'burst whose yet to appear in this thread as well. Always a fascinating place, this board through all its iterations.

The Guitar Pron Thread
Great tale from Steve Vai on FB tonight. Reminds me a little of the Peter Frampton Les Paul, though less dramatic. "Reunited, and it feels so good. Oddly enough, after going missing 36 and a half years ago, my custom Joe Despagni “Swiss Cheese” guitar was finally returned to me. This guitar was custom built for me by Joe Despagni. Joe was my best friend in life growing up and he made me some of the wildest guitars I ever laid my fingers on such as the Flame guitar, the Lightning Bolt, this Swiss Cheese guitar, ZNG ZNG, and his final piece that he made for me before he passed away, Theadolite. He worked with his brother Rob on many of these guitars. I used “Swiss Cheese” in the original Yankee Rose video while I was with David Lee Roth, and stretched it out in rehearsals and was planning on touring with it, but this guitar, along with 3 others, was stolen in Pasadena CA at Perkins Palace during rehearsals for the Eat Em and Smile tour. It is officially the first guitar to receive a “monkey” grip” handle, and the first one Joe made with a handle at my request. The guitar was discovered by young Iván Gonzáles Acosta in the attic of his grandparents home in Tijuana, Mexico not too long ago. It seems the people that lived in his grandparents house before them purchased the guitar somewhere along the way and it was just stuck in the attic only to be discovered recently when they were reorganizing things. When Ivan discovered this guitar, he posted some images online and they came on the trusty radar of our very own Mike Mesker. Mike is THE authority on the history and specifics of all my guitars. Mike started reaching out to Ivan and after some time he was able to arrange a drop off where Ivan was met by Mike, Doug MacArthur and myself. Thanks to Mike for his solid vigilance in bringing this guitar home. The condition of the guitar when I saw it was a shocker. It’s as if it was put in the case and never played for 36 years. The colors are still vibrant and the neck is in great shape. Thank you Ivan for your kind consideration and for reuniting me with this piece of my history. Receiving this guitar feels like an old friend has returned home after so many years to jam with me. I believe that we will make a wonderful Ham and Swiss sandwich together. Photo by Mike Mesker"
