Oh yeah. he's got some SERIOUSLY nice stuff. And a great job of photo detail. I mean where else can you get this?



I mean that as a compliment! If you want to see detail, his gallery is the place to go.

Well, the detail is clear, but is there a way we can see deeper into the hole? It's so dark.

Peruse isn't quite the right word. I'm sure I've spent more time than I could afford looking at each of his pictures. He has some great guitars and photos, and as Dave said, the detail of the photos is incredible. I tried to post a few closeups similar to his and couldn't get them to work. By the time I reduced them to the size I could post, the detail seemed to be gone. Maybe I just need to rely on something other than the camera to focus. My eyesight isn't that good, though.

I agree. That is one beautiful collection. The most interesting guitar to me is the 65 Les Paul.Especially since in 65 there were no Les Pauls. In '61 they looked like SG's. The LP body style was not reintroduced until 68.

Thank you so much, all your opinions.
I've just added some pics of my lovely guitars

And I plan to add the pics in my OFC gallery within one month!
Thank again.

LP custom with a maple fingerboard? Definately not from '65. Mid to late '70's.

Maybe in Thailand they were still making Les Pauls in 65?

Thank you very very much. I agreed with you Paul!
I checked my Les Paul custom the serial number # 250600 but I don't know what year exactly?
I remembered I bought her from Newport, U.S.A.in new condition in 1976.
*** Please let me know and I will correct right now.

The maple fingerboard LP custom was available '75 to '81. The serial number puts yours at 1975.

Povation's Les Paul is beautiful. I don't recall ever seeing one in that color/fretboard combination.

No matter what year LP it is, it is still one very stunning guitar. And rest of the collection is simply awesome.
