Just came in. Very clean Gibson Les Paul Classic with original case.
So today a really good (and well known) guitarist comes to the shop to have his guitar restrung with a minor setup also. He pulls this out and we are floored, lol!
Not only did he “fix” it when he was a teen (screw it and glue it) but it plays great, stays in tune and sounds good, despite the stab wound in the body. I’m impressed not only with the repair but the guitar actually surviving.
So Elliot Curtis has a gig this Thurdsay at Tartan Inn in West Peoria and needs his acoustic to be louder. 10 minutes later he’s good to go and the janky strap button is fixed also, lol
Thanks for coming in Elliot!

We get a call late Friday asking if we can do a double pickup install. Has to be done by 7:00. No problem! Nick Sizemore of the band “Nick Sizemore & the Saddletramps” waited around and loves his new Lollar Pickups and the quick turnaround. Thanks Nick, great talking to you and hearing you play!
