All three are worthy.

Wait, there’s more...







There is a Flying V as well, in need of some serious restoration work, at some point in its past someone has used a broken bottle to route out a Strat type tremolo cavity, and taken all the finish off. Might dig it out if I’m furloughed for much longer.

That's right up my street, very nice indeed

There isn't a "Let's look at our broken guitars" thread...



But I've fked the jack plate on my Epiphone es 345, it's the stereo output one so I've had no luck on the Internet finding one, does anyone know a good source of reasonably rare guitar spare parts? Epiphone have just suggested my local dealer but they're all closed up.

I’d say your chances of getting a direct replacement are pretty thin. Making a plain black plastic one is pretty straightforward though, or you could make one out of brass, aluminium or steel, then paint it. It’ll never break again then.

Got to agree with this .

ETA: bought & should be arriving on Friday


Sitting debating whether to pull the trigger on this. Pre-owned, up for £599 in really good nick. Most other 1000's seem to go in the 800 range and this has the abalone details. Need a couple more coffees methinks.

My neighbour just handed me this
Left out for whoever wanted it . I haven't even tested it yet .
But a quick google reveals it to have been pretty expensive when new .
Suddenly I have 3 projects to work on .

Yesterday I bought this complete with a very nice epiphone hard case .
Plays very well but needs all the electrics servicing .

[grumpy52]

A quick wipe down , removed the stickers , a quick safety check and everything seems to work .
Tuning with a floating bridge /trem is a new skill for me to master
The bottom of the rear is pretty worn and scratched and the custom finish is not to my taste .
It will probably be up for sale when people are free to move about again.

Looks like a JS100? Inspired by the black dog, not much now. Will still play nicely though.

Yes 1996 JS 100 , all works needs a good clean , if the artwork will buff off I'll play about with it , if not I'll sling it on the usual sales sites and someone else can have some fun
I have Les Paul and Strat projects to keep me occupied.
