brentrocks Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 a new H 170 custom and now this....dammmmm!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitArtMan Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Me thinks it was an H-535 because I was looking at these and there were 18 now there are only 17... the problem is, I can't figure out which one you got... I was about to pull the trigger and the super figured Tobacco Burst 25th anniversary, but after talking with Graham, I don't think it has the neck shape I'm looking for... so then I was gonna pull the trigger on that mega figured amber translucent 25th anniversary, but as gorgeous as it is, I'm just not all that keen on the color. Now I'm starting to think about a custom order... I gotta stop coming here and/or looking at Gbase! Anyway, I still think it's a 535... Is it the translucent amber on hold?

FredZepp Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Well, I think that we should be thinking that it is.... Oh , wait a minute, I have to sit on my hands... Still , it'll be fun to see if anyone can guess.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big bob Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share Posted August 23, 2010 a new H 170 custom and now this....dammmmm!!!!!! Yep, Clue 1 Kate told me at pspiii that it was one hell of a guitar.. Gitartman, not a 535, (that tobacco burst 25 is sweet though!) you are on the right track. Clue 2 Has a natural finish. more clues to come..

Guest mgoetting Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Yep, Clue 1 Kate told me at pspiii that it was one hell of a guitar.. Jeez, I guess we can rule out Gibsons and Fenders. We need a little bit more to work with. Rhymes with...? How many syllables? Bigger than a H140? Plant, animal...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess you're assuming we watch Jay's GBase listings. But I'm going to go with the flavor of the month - 525. No idea if there are less than were in his listings. But they are very popular right now, especially with P90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he**, I was going to say Prospect, but they're both still on the site. So, it's not a 535, 525, 555 or 575, etc. Or 150/157 for that matter. That leaves .... Prospect (both still there), 170, 110 --- but he has none listed. The Golden Eagle is, well, damned expensive. But there was one at PSPIII. Dang it, Lance!! This is hard after 3 beers and 2 Rumple shots! I'm lucky to be able to type, much less reason something out. Argh!! Next clue, maybe? Like ... a model number?

Patrick Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Super eagle Can't be a Super Eagle. They ALL have maple tops and rims . . . and Jay hasn't had one since I bought his 1992. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Maybe a Sweetie? But it would have had to be a real custom order for mahog or spruce back and rims. Maybe it's an Eagle? They made a few ofthose with mahog back and rims Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schundog Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 With no "5," I was gonna guess H137 until you said it wasn't a soldbody.. Dang....Give it up, Lance!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMG Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I'm gonna throw my hat in the ring and guess a Super KB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I'm gonna throw my hat in the ring and guess a Super KB? Super KBs have maple backs and sides . . . too big for mahog . . . too many feed back probs, and there wasn't a natural/blonde Super KB on Jay's site for nearly a year. He just got in a 2010 natural . . . and OH MY GOD!!! It's gorgeous!! If they weren't so over priced, I would be on the phone haggling with Jay as we speak. The almond sunburst Super KB is still on the site . . .and bigbob said it's a natural. I'm wondering if it just might be a custom ordered Golden Eagle?? But I've been on Jay's site pretty regularly and don't recall seeing one. With a Spruce top, no "5" in the model name, blonde/natural in color, mahog sides and rims . . . . could it be a flat top??? Nope!! It's A Golden Eagle . . . . I'm sure of it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
