I just had a good week on Reverb... Thursday night I picked up a beautiful 2011 Gibson Les Paul Studio Faded with active EMG 81/85 for less than $600 + shipping. And tonight snagged a vintage Marshall Valvestate VS100RH head for $200 shipped offer, and it only needs an input jack replaced (supposedly...We'll see once it gets here). I know, I know... Folks hate on the Valvestates because they're hybrid amps, but for an iconic 90's heavy metal/hard rock sound, the Marshall 8100/VS100RH heads are right up there with the Peavey 5150 tube heads. Wayne Static (Static-X) almost exclusively used the Marshall 8100/VS100 heads. So did TONS of other famous bands of the 90's. Plus, for nostalgia, my first "real" amp was a new in '95 Valvestate VS100R 1x12 combo. Still have it. Still sounds amazing. And I bet this new VS100RH will sound amazing through my Blackstar S1 412 Pro cab w/ custom-voiced Celestion V30's. 👍🏻

@@12south31 Yeah, I got my first Valvestate VS100R 1x12 combo back in '97 or so, when I was a kid. Still got that amp, and it's in mint condition. So, I have a bit of a sentimental connection to the Valvestate amps. Plus, most haters are people who have never used one, or have no idea how to dial one in. Once you get it dialed in, it's probably the nicest sounding solid-state amp you've ever heard, thanks to that single 12ax7 preamp tube. Swapping out the original Marshall tube for a high-quality Tung-Sol, Genelax, or Mullard makes a difference, too. 🤘🏻

I ran into an old elementary school friend about 20 years ago. He was and is a hell of a nice guy, following rant will explain. We are hanging out, havent seen each other in years, having a beer or 2 and catching up. When I tell him I play guitar he says, " check this out. Give it a spin". His father had died and left him a Gibson es semi hollow, with a vintage fender amp. As I lit up playing it, and kept telling him how awesome his gear is he says " geeze man, I would really like to give this to you, but my dad left it to me..." What!? Stop! Do not give this to anyone, you have an absolute special find with the guitar and amp. Some people have no idea the nature of their items . That old Gibson was not only expensive and collectible, but had huge sentimental value. And the guy still wanted to give it to me. I hope he still has it.

My cousins have a band and their lead guitarist had one of the Rock Les Paul's, and you were right, it looks just like a kitchen counter top. His was the white/light grey/dark grey swirl, like it's supposed to be quartz granite or something. I had never heard of them and at first I thought it was some Chibson import fake. Nope. He turned it for about $3k and I was stunned. He ended up buying a Helix with it and some cash left over. The build quality was very poor and he was the first/original owner, so nothing had been done to it.

These videos are interesting to me cause I have never been a Gibson fan and never understood peoples obsession for Gibson. After watching many of Trogly's videos I still don't get it. The Norlin era, they seem to try anything they could to build the guitars cheap and in the last 30 years the only thing to justify the high prices is the name Gibson. They also have the worst aging finishes of any guitar company. Don't get me wrong. they do make good guitars but no better than any other top tier guitar brands and in my opinion not as good as some. I guess it just comes down to tradition why people love the old brands like Gibson and Fender.

I had the pickguard on a '97 Limited Edition Les Paul Jr TVDC do the off-gassing thing about three years after I bought it. A what? They were a Japanese market special run with historic specs and a faux tortoiseshell pickguard. The guard on mine went weird and oily in a "I don't remember it looking like that a few months ago" way. I changed the strings on it and put it on a stand, then went on vacation for a week. When I got back the off-gassing had corroded the strings so much that the E & B had snapped. Suffice it to say that the guitar has had a back guard made by a local repair guy on it for the last fifteen years. My other off-gassing horror story concerns a mid 90's CIJ Jazzmaster in Fotoflame. I case queened it for about a year and "something" off-gassed, resulting in the pickup covers and whammy bar tip getting very yellowed, and all the finish on the guitar had started to crack up and peel off. The thing has looked like it has a nasty skin disease ever since, and like my other 90's Fotoflame Fender is in serious need of a re-finish.

The ABR-1 on the '50s Black Beauty is a no-wire one ... easily worth over $1,000 by itself in even in okay condition (not bent!) BUT the saddles were very likely replaced (you can tell because of the beveled screws, on '50s ones the screws didn't have bevels but by the early '60s they added them to prevent strings from contacting them. Plus the saddles were sharp as knives, I once found one that was new old stock and the saddles weren't any sharper than that so for a guitar with as much playwear as this, that seems "off". That's what's tricky about these really old guitars, I only know this tiny detail because I researched it heavily (because I owned one) and every part on a guitar of this vintage guitar also can be dated by minute detail that most people won't know about. And it does effect value if parts are not right, even parts of parts, so be careful.

Just a little side note regarding the LP Gothic with a chip in the finish, as Austin said it can indeed be fixed, a mate of mine has a Fender that its neck finish cracked all along the skunk stripe from the truss rod being over tightened. Structural issues aside, it was VERY uncomfortable to play. He took it to my luthier of trust and it was all glued up and sanded smooth, even without having to refill the crack with finish, it became imperceptible - the key here is leaving something as delicate as the finish to someone who knows their craft.

Austin: Thanks for discussing the ES Artist pickguard. I have a 1980 model and love the thing but that guard had to go; all was good until about two years ago when I found the pups turning green. I took the guard off, removed it's metal parts and stored them separately in baggies and fortunately the guitar finish polished up ok. Do you have any idea why this specific pickguard is so bad? It's such a fancy thing compared to the ones on my other Gibsons; beautiful to look at and with binding too, but useless. One more watch-out for these guitars is that the black foam rubber, used to protect the circuit board from the 9V battery, disintegrates at around 35 years +/-. Mine was just fine one year and then when I changed the battery the following year, the cavity was full of black powder. I just carefully vacuumed it out and there is now a piece of soft cloth doing the job. The guitar is exceptionally well made and plays really well. The Moog electronics are a little odd and really superfluous but do produce some really interesting tones.

What the hell are those shrinking pick guards gassing off? Hydrogen gas? I have only seen that type of corrosion once and it was to a car battery charger that sat too close to charging batteries, the venting hydrogen gas from the battery causes that type of corrosion. That guitars corrosion on the metal parts are consistent with hydrogen gases being vented from the pick guard. And now you know why you never charge a car battery in your house, especially if you smoke in your house.

I suppose there are hardcore collectors out there that buy and trade or sell old Gibsons - the problem is that for actually playing many of these Gibsons - it would take some TLC to restore most and likely would not sound that much different from the new 2020 Epiphones at $500 - $700 that have been made with the latest equipment and techniques overseas. I have seen fairly high-quality no-name brands of Les Pauls that go for under $200. And just like Squire to Fender Strats - a lot of folks love the sound of the cheaper versions. None of the guitars I own - I bought - were over $150 - so all of these Gibson's simply give me sticker shock. The biggest difference I have found between low and high cost involves the material that the nut and saddle on the instruments are made of - which I replace myself with bone. I have friends with enormously expensive guitars that tell me that they like the sound of my guitars better than their main favorite. 10 to 20 years of aging also seems to bring out top of the line tones - with no scratches, dents, dings, chips or cracks happening like in those pictures of Gibsons. So - why do these high-end instruments have all these little issues? I own Epiphone, Squire, Ibanez, Rhapsody( over 40 years old ), and a new Orangewood acoustic( got it sounding like a Martin.) I also bought a low-cost Rogue 4 string bass - that I tweaked until it sounded like Lemmy from Motorhead. 3 guitars cost $99, 1 guitar cost $40, 1 guitar cost $111, and 1 cost $150. Total cost: $598 for 6 instruments. Beat that all you cheapskates out there! All were bought new except for the Rhapsody, which now has a little fretboard wear. I can live with that. And in the end for me - it's more about learning and playing guitar than collecting. I also - for some strange reason - never bothered to notice what guitar my favorite musicians played - which I think is why the Gibson brand holds little mystic or cache'. Value is in the eye of the beholder, though. If you got the cash and you love the instrument - go for it.

That's the beauty of living in the UK, courier charges are not that expensive. For a good well protected cased guitar in an outter cardboard box wouldn't cost much more than £30 nationwide. Might be the land of oportunity but it's also the land of extortionate couriers.

The same thing happens to me with reverb. I do the same thing but just for good deals for myself.

Reverb only send out 1 email a day so they collect 24 hour's worth of guitars and send it to you. All they need is an option for how many emails they send a day or what hours to send an email.

That image on the back, although it took me a minute to see myself as well, is a Batman.

Being in Australia, the local mark up is a rip off. Reverb is the way to go for us because even with shipping, it's still cheaper than getting it locally.

Regarding the Zak Wilde guitar, I believe the stuff on the back is a "Batman" sticker turned lengthwise..

For a Les Paul/Gibson fan, can you recommend a forum apart from my les paul. Maybe with active members?

I compared Reverb to Guitar Center and the prices on GC were actually better for the same style guitar.

What do you suggest to use to clean the fretboard? I find most of my gear off of facebook and craigslist and usually just wipe the frets down with a dry rag.

Trogly, what are your thoughts on the 1984 Gibson J-25 with the resin/plastic back?
