I was just brousing around Gibson's site and saw mention of their Custom Shop Auction. Well it so happens that the guitar in the first picture is Mine! I bought this one at the auction. She is a Beauty. An L4-CES Jazz box. Thought you might like to see the guitar... Gibson Custom Shop auction  !
If you click on "Custom Shop" it takes you yet another link to the Summer Jam party. These guys take much better pictures than me! |

Its funny Dave, in the mid 80's I was working at Alex's music on 48th st and we had an L4ces. I thought it was the best guitar I ever played and for years said to people. I sold the best guitar I ever played when I should have bought it myself. 10 years later I found another one and it too was the best guitar I ever played so I started realizing I LOVE L4ces'!! In the last few years I have worked on about 10 and they are all amazing, there is a picture of me holding one on my website. Great purchase use it well. PS can I borrow it?

Evan[/QUOTE] Evan, I realy love this model/it too. At first I bought it just to re-sell the auction prices were real low. Then when I got it home I simply couldn't part with it. p.s. Yes you can borrow it...at least I know you can fix it if something happens in shipping!

Dave, I understand why you'd keep it. Good Gibsons (yes, there are some!) have a special mojo that's hard to match. It's why we like sunbursts here in Michigan. |

Nice Score... Those are really nice guitars! About 10 years ago, I bought a new All-Mahogany version of your model. It was absolutely a sight to behold. However, when I got it home, the next day I deemed myself not worthy of such a fine piece, and consequently I returned it & came away w/ a used ES-335 instead (suited me better). I still think about the mahogany top on that guitar. I have not seen another one since... |

Thanks everyone. Dave, Anytime you want to come down is great. Just give me a heads up so I know when. I or you can set something up with Keith and then we could go down to Keith's and hopefully Bozo's again. It would be great fun! |
