I have two Gibson Les Paul refernce monitors (4in) for sale. They are the beautiful Tobacco Burst maple. I hate to let them go, but I just dont have a use for them anymore. They are worth $600 each, looking to sell for $800 for both. Message me if interrested!!!

Curse be upon any musician who would pay those prices for aesthetics over performance on a piece of musical gear such as monitors speakers.

Hey look! I agree with Schmed! 4" speakers for that kind of money is ludicrous. You can get one FINE set of reference monitors for that kind of money.

I might be interested......







....if a Gibson LP is included. i'd prefer a '70's Deluxe w mini hums.

don't get me wrong..i'd NEVER swap that Starfire for ANYTHING...but a few yrs back i did baby sit an early '70's wine red LP Deluxe for a cpl of wks....i played a few jazz gigs with it.

very nice axe. the neck pickup...tone rolled off? nice warm jazz tone w just the right amt of "cut". it was a very sweet player that i really dug, but took a pass on making it mine. it wasn't too heavy either. definitely lighter than that boat anchor 17" '54 Guild X150 of mine....That is one HEAVY gtr.

here's a pic of the '66 Starfire II in action from Sunday's gig.

94 degrees (heat index 103) at 7:00 playing under a gazebo for a few hunnert folks braving the weather in lawn chairs.

i had briefly considered changing strings before the gig...then came to my senses!

If I'm not mistaken, the Deluxes were made of maple.

nah...as far as i know all Deluxes were mahogany w maple caps.
