Kenosha Warrior Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 Bought this burnt-orange baby at a yardsale thismorning. mint condition for $60cdn. It says S.D.E Custom on the headstock. It doesn't have a serial # anymore, or maybe it does and I can't find it. It looks like a Gibson, it just screams Gibson Custom, but the SDE throws me for a loop. Its the burnt orange one on the left. Any ideas? http://img160.imageshack.us/my.php?imag ... arsqr5.jpg
Oizarod115 Posted August 27, 2006 Posted August 27, 2006 don't know about the guitar but you've got a nice cat!
Hot Rod Jeep Posted August 27, 2006 Posted August 27, 2006 Cat, guitars, fireplace, room, I like it all. Looks like a peaceful place to jam. 8)

Kenosha Warrior Posted August 28, 2006 Author Posted August 28, 2006 took it to a guitar shop today. 1968 Vantage, California made. with Seymour-Duncan dual-tone pickups from the same year. It has been refinished, in the original colour, but in doing so the S/N got removed. He gave me a year based on the stamps on the body under the electronics. worth around 3-4 grand in mint, mines around 2800-3000 $ cdn. Not too bad for a yardsale find.
Wildman Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 MoparRobbie - Great find on a garage sale deal Now just think now many MJ's you can get when you sell the guitar :brows:

Spent it on brake parts for my MJ. got it back an hour ago. Still nice and shiny (the guitar) I need my MJ to chauffer my arse and my guitar around to school and work.
