Nimrod, go on page 116-117 in Beauty of the Burst and look at the wear marks where the Volume Knobs are. They are trying to simulate the same markings. Hey, Nimrod your even more impatient than I am and I'm the one getting it. You are into it and that's cool. I have no problem with perfectionist, because if you ask Michael I'm impossible.

Again who in the heck would spend 6000.00 to 9000.00 for a Murphy Les Paul. First of all they are not 1/10th as good as any guitar built from ShamRay and the Guys. Granted the resale Value of a Gibbo may be good but a playa is a playa. I agree with your comment Lucian!!!!!

well..... they want to, but they can't. i know at least how the legislation is on that part in the netherlands, but not in russia (did i spell that right? legislation??) as far as i know here, luthiers, like shamray but only in the netherlands, create those guitars in customorders, and that the bodyshape resembles a les paul is mere coincidence. thats why they are allowed to be copied here. i think in russia its the same deal as here. right? |

The only country in the world where professional luthiers can't legally build an 'LP replica' is AMERICA. This is because Gibson has taken out American TRADEMARKS on the the body and headstock shape. But Gibson has not taken out any INTERNATIONAL trademarks yet - if they ever do, then we will stop producing LP replicas. But I doubt that they will be buying them any time soon... Gibson has DOZENS of US trademarks registered, and a "Madrid Protocol" (international) trademark costs US$11,000 PER TRADEMARK to do a global registration that is valid in all countries. @Lucian: Murphy is "Tom Murphy" - a guy in America who was so famous for his "guitar aging" artistry, that Gibson actually hired him to age some of their production guitars (so they could sell them for even more inflated prices than usual...)

i bet his "guitar aging" is him sitting outside on some some of desk chair with your guitar in the sun for 3 weeks while he reads a book, and the day before hes to ship it to you hell drag it up every stair in his house hitting the body, grab his spare belt and mash the back of it, pour some finish rotting solution on the back of the neck and quickly wipe it off and smile evilly about how much you just paid him to wreck your guitar.... on a completely unrelated note, i am now opening my own guitar aging business, please feel free to send me any guitars you would like to look older. |

Just send your guitars to Michael and have his cat scratch it to give it that cracked look. Tell the cat to paw at the lower part of the volume knobs and presto a Murphy aged LP. Don't forget the CatNip on the back of the neck. Also if you are refinishing older furniture, just spill some Zip Strip on certain areas and watch the Magic. Great post Lucian.

I think I'll never understand that whole "V" hipe. Maybe because I grew up in a car garage ... But you never know, maybe in a few month there doing a MTV-show like "Age my ride" for all the millionears and full-time sons out there, wo wants to have their Porsches, Farraris and BMWs look like they had a hard life on the racetrack ...

Florian that's really funny If you own a real Burst or a 50's Goldtop LP like I do you will understand, why the aging is done. It actually plays better. Natural aging is much better to tone in a old wood guitar no doubt, but the look of a relic is just fun. I have owned several new guitars and have some nice clean one's but the old relic one's feel so much better. I don't think I have ever watched a full fifteen minutes of MTV in my life. I was too busy working out for Football.

i agree with steven. i have a new strat, and an old les paul. i dont have anything extra, cause i dont need it (well,i do, but i dont have cash now :-D ) and from day 1 i loved the les paul, and after relicing the strat a bit, some scratches, some cracks, it plays better, and sounds better. i think the wood now has more breating space, so to say. |

i have an gibbo sg that hasnt been cased for 2 years, i actually gig with it out of its case. chuck it in the back seat and off i go. wont do that with the shamray thats for sure. - the sg has a whole bunch of strange marks on it, including two sets of teeth marks. i accidently stepped on it at the end of a gig when id put it down to let a note ring. so beat up - but still my favorite guitar currently. | |

I finally get to see the Master crafter at work. Thank you Maxim for all your hard work. You are a very Gifted Crafter and God has blessed your fingers. So don't cut them. Thank you for your input and the Shop on the Relic process. Did I say I can't wait to play it. I don't want this to end it's really a fun process. Maxim what do you think about making a 56 Les Paul TV yellow Special. | |

These lulls in the building process kill me. All you have to do is drag it behing a car or tie it to your waist and drag it around the house and up the stairs. Or have Michaels Standing Cat Scratch and Naw at it. Sorry just Venting.

Nimrod I didn't know that they won the case, PRS is only 45 mins. from my house. I have taken the tour and played several of their guitars. I even played Pauls first guitar he made. that is great. < BR> < BR> |

yeah, i think its very cool that they won, they " deserved" to win, imo. gibson was just acting like a small child in my opinion but ok. but i can imagine they acted pissed off, cause PRS creates better guitars than gibson. but is it true that their lacquers are a sort off an uhm....plastic instead of nitro?? |
