NGD Custom Creation!

Post by sam »

Happy Friday to all and a Happy New Guitar Day for me :alright:

From our own marketplace I now have a beeeeyyuutiful G&L 20th Anniversary model. Greg has a handful of G&L guitars that will make any player happy. (He's a great guy to work with on guitars as well)

Fortunately the 20th Anniversary was still available, as I have been looking at the Super and the Buffalo Brothers HB as well, but this could be is as good as it gets. Love the look of this baby. Have not had a chance to play much but like what I've heard so far, will give a full report in a few days. Could be a LOUD weekend!!

Great score. I second the BEM on the neck. Don't care what they say, it adds such a beauty and mystique. Never had a problem with one.

You mention Greg and that he has some other guitars to sell? Who is Greg and was this guitar in the market place and I missed it?

Beautiful NGD!!

Fumble Fingers you are correct! Between Greg and Craig right now some very nice G&L guitars are available. :searching:

Thanks again for the kudos on the Birds Eye neck. I will post a pic of the back soon, that grabbed my attention when I saw it in person.

A plug for the bi-cut neck: here's a gorgeous BEM neck, 16 years old and no warping. Remember what happened when G&L changed the truss rod especially when it came down to BEM necks?

Exactly ...

Some things are demonstrably better.

Hello Fellow G&Ls,

Just to clarify. It is I ' Greg ' who sold Sam the 20th Anniversary ASAT. User Profile ' G.. ' ... Marketplace Ad ' Thinning the Herd '. Also, Sam is correct the I have a handful of other excellent examples of classic G&Ls for sale. When I met Sam I picked up the '87 S500 from Guitar Center. The guys did a great setup and she is playing and sounding beautifully. Sorry for the poor job of linking the pictures in the ad. Please don't hesitate to click on the Slick Pic link and check out all my guitars for sale ( Victoria 512 for sale, too ).

Thanks, Greg

I had #1 and #22 Anniversary for a time and found them both to be really well made guitars. Beautiful guitars with a sweet,full tone.

Enjoy,
