brentrocks Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 HOC brother Jack Baruth stopped by this afternoon to pick up his Gibson Saturn amp. He was also sporting his newly necked H 575....what a cool guitar, played and sounded great! AND....was also delivering a certain H 157????? (i'm holding your guitar for ransom, Chris!!!)

Trouble Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Man that 575 is sweet, not usually my kind of axe but I think I could get used to that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HRB853370 Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I think that boy needs a haircut..... Nice outfit Brently. 22 and counting...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Nice 575 Jack. Did Aaron do the reset? I think I saw it when I was there. Our bass player has a 575 with an H tail piece. It's a dream to play. I'd say have fun but it looks like you already are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schundog Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I changed my mind, Jack; I'll take it for the $1000. Haha. Congrats on getting her back, and cool you and Brent got to spend some time together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steiner Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Why those same guitars came here to visit today! Even saw the same GA5 in the backseat. I love the headstock on the 157. That 575 is nothing shy of gorgeous!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackBaruth Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Dear Diary, Tonight I spent an hour being interrogating by the Border Patrol about my Gibson Saturn amp. Turns out that a 45 watt tuber really IS A WEAPON OF MASS DESTRUCTION. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I could grow hair like that!---beautiful gits gentlemen! BTW, you Michiganders (and those close by) got it going on being able to hang out and stop in to jam together....It can get mighty lonely down here in the sub tropical zones!

JackBaruth Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 For the record, this was not a neck reset... this was a completely new neck, made by Aaron to my specs and joined to the existing body with a blank ebony fretboard for maximum pimp appeal. Given that somebody just paid $1700 or whatever for a brand-new H-575 on eBay, I might be in deep water on this one. It's okay. I don't intend to sell any of the stuff that Aaron's done for me.

Good for you, Jack!!! Can you really put a price on a personally customized guitar??? If it sounds good, and your know it is personalized exactly to your specs, then I wouldn't worry about resale loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bolero Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 got home from the pub last night, installed throbak's, ( SLE 101 LTD ) did the '50's wiring mod, and top wrapped the tailpiece ( glad the string break was steep as I prefer top wrap ) here's a quick snap....my camera is crap, sorry will have to post better pics later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredZepp Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 That is certainly a cool headstock on that 157... and it should be wonderful with the throbaks. We'll be glad to hear more about it when you have the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
