DetroitBlues Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I'm very proud to say this is mine.... A custom order by Kuz that changed hands last year and now has ended up with me, thank you Bill! Specs are 1959 Les Paul neck profile (.886 give or take at the nut). One piece mahogany back, highly flamed near perfect book matched top in VSB. It strongly resembles Peter Greens legendary Les Paul... Even the plastic was painstaking color matched for consistency. Toss in some Seth Lovers and I have my guitar... Oh, and there is a pool going for how long I keep it. Contact Bigbob for details... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hfan Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Wow DB, you have hit the jackpot me thinks. That top on a Gibbie would set you back $5k or so. Looks like a keeper. Congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PunkKitty Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 It's a sweet 150. It made me decide to keep my vsb for a while in addition to my osb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gitfiddler Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I always read a DBlues 'NGD' thread. Typically I get at least a few smiles in the process. No other player's taste seems so specific, yet mercurial at the same time. But THIS time, I am left with my mouth wide open in awe and amazement. That is one of the finest 150's I've ever seen. Knowing it originally came from Kuz's exquisite arsenal of carefully selected and finely crafted instruments is enough to get one's head spinning. Congratulations on scoring a bad ass 150 DB!! Play it in good health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartyGrass Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 If you sell this one, you definitely need to get professional help from a therapist. If you want the phone number of mine, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beagle216 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 I just have got to say something again, this thing really looks amazing. It looks like Peter Green's '59 Les Paul for sure, in fact it looks better than any Gibson '59 reissue I have seen. The flame is just beautiful on that guitar. I can't see any reason this wouldn't be a permanent fixture in my collection if I owned it! Play her in good health and KEEP HER!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
