Well Ive had a very hard time finding any early 90s lps, I dont care if they are used and I really dont care about the price. What Im looking for is a standard, classic, supreme or custom thats a bit on the lighter side (you les paul owners know what I mean, some are made from low density wood and others are not), PLAYS well (ie no sharp frets, no buzzing) and has solid accoustic tone (looking for roundness in the tone), plugged in sound is a bonus, although seymour duncans are going on it so thats not terrbily important.
I dont care how it looks as long as it was moderately well taken care of, I will pay extra if you have the hardshell or SDs or DiMarzios, If its got EMGs they are going to be replace so Im unfortunately not willing to pay extra for them.
Understand this is going to be a long process, and I intend to use an escrow service (a third party that will hold onto the cash while I inspect the instrument) that I will pay for myself. I will pay for any shipping costs within reason (up to 60 dollars, which is shipping for most guitars on ebay).
Use of escrow is non negotiable, I intend to try the instrument before I buy it, I will be gentle, plus it protects both parties because no funny business can go on between either party.
But make me an offer and please try to include a picture and hopefully some sound, and remember Im willing to pay a bit extra, Id like to keep this under 2500 but if you happen to have a very good condition supreme or custom thats you want a little more for, dont hesitate to offer.
