Muy caliente!

 

[Gorgon90]

That looks like a good workhorse.

 

[Guitar Heel]

love it.

 

[Chad]

I have no idea who rock and roll relics are, but I love the looks of that one.

 

[Tig]

I like it. I'd prefer it without relicing and the resulting lower price even more.

 

[CBHScott]

...or just get a real relic'ed original. Couldn't be that much of a price difference, I reckon.

 

[Guitar Heel]

I like it. I'd prefer it without relicing and the resulting lower price even more.

But then they'd have to change their name to Rock-N-Roll New Old Stock. That just doesn't have the same ring to it.

 

[BlockInlay]

How is it performing? I'm not familiar with this company, are they getting sued from all angles by Gibson?

 

[Muppet]

I like it. I'd prefer it without relicing and the resulting lower price even more.

For what it's worth, I've played a handful of Rock n Relic instruments and they've all played and sounded pretty great. As far as just getting a vintage one, you're not going to find one near this price point, especially in Pelham Blue, which is a pretty rare colour on any Junior.

 

[jelloman]

It's a'ight...

 

[jp_nyc]

I’d like it more if it didn’t appear to have been attacked by a teenager with a razor blade.

You're wrong, I'm afraid. A gen-you-wine early 60s/late 50s LP junior is going to set you back somewhere north of $4K. I know -- I've been looking for one for years!

And THIS one? ? ?


EDIT: OK, I found another on Reverb for $1400.00...

My bad, and carry on!

 

[Denverdave]

Hot. Or would be if it had not been ruined by the lame relic job.

[Elias Graves]

Needs paint but otherwise hot. Would.

 

[Hubert Stumblin]

Sweet.

 

[GreatDane]

i'd try it if i saw it "in the flesh".

 

[Gary Blanchard]

I rather like that one, but I did not look at the price; that would probably change my mind.
