The Outpost Cafe / Re: GUITAR ORGAN
« on: July 09, 2010, 08:04:16 PM »
I bought an instructional video by Leslie West, "Big Phat Ass Guitar" a while back. At one point, he was playing organ on a guitar, I believe it was a Casio. I went on a quest to find a guitar like that & ended up with a Roland GR-33. That setup has so many contols on it, it makes a Les Paul Triumph or an RD Artist look like a Pignose amp!
Vox was very inovative in the sixties. A bass player I new, had a prototype Vox bass with tons of switches & nobs. I wish now that I had paid more attention to what it was capable of.

Gibson Basses / Re: 20/20 pickup on the bay
« on: June 27, 2010, 03:23:36 PM »
Looks to be a bridge pickup.................... I have one, I'll have to dig it out & see if it's a neck pickup. I think I paid about $20.00 for the one I have.

The end pin is kind off an oddity. It really doesn't work very well & it feels very awkward. I play with my thumb so it doesn't do me much good either. It's just case candy!

Nice!!! 
The complete EB-1 Trilogy!! Do you have all three origional telescoping end pins? I've had two reissues, the first had the end pin missing & there was no real clear picture of what an origional looked like. I finally found one but I think it might have been from the first version. These are so rare, that most people would have a hard time verifying if the part is origional............

Being a black refin................ it must be worth more than if it were all origional! 
It's still cheaper than any EB-6 I've seen lately..

The seller recomended Canada Post, but I went with Fed-Ex. I think I paid over $70 in fees for a $450 item. Live & learn.

Gibson Basses / Re: WOW! Black LP Recorder/Triumph on ebay
« on: June 06, 2010, 05:45:22 PM »
The only black one I've ever seen was a refin from a local guitar shop years ago. I have a gut feeling about this one. The black refin EB-2 that popped up on ebay a few months ago went for much more than it would have if it was any other color..........

The last thing I bought from Cananda, I shipped Fed-Ex & got nailed with huge duty fees. It was a Gibson GA-4RE so it was origionally made in the US. It was tied up in customs, they quoted me a price, after I gave them my credit card number they charged me about double the price I was origionally quoted! It would have to be extremely rare or cheap for me to do that again............... Still don't understand the charges.
