' - Hey Guys,
Well, it all started with a frozen meatball re-heated with marginally decent pasta sauce a few weeks ago at Barones' Italian Restaurant in Van Nuys CA. I was attending our holiday gathering of like minded guitar nerds in Los Angeles for our last dinner of the year. My friend David, came in with the Red Thing that he posted a month before and my radar immediately went off after spotting that neck tenon. At first without seeing any of the parts and David saying he thought the PAFs were double whites ( they are not, double blacks) I said we might have a double 0 on our hands. Its got a big-ish neck. I spoke to David about what the owner wanted to do with it. He said he wanted it to be restored to its original sunburst. He bought it in 1963 for $100 stripped it and painted it Candy Apple Red about 5 years later. He came into David's shop armed with a Sweetwater catalog and a circled 2019 Les Paul Standard in sunburst " This is what it looked like before I stripped it". I made David an offer that night and asked to contact the owner. The next day I looked at the parts which are all correct ( rings, Double black PAFs, harness (7th week of 59 and the smoking gun along with the factory large frets, until the top was stripped) wiring , knobs ect. My offer was accepted (he did well... and nobody got ripped off) and the guitar was off to Kim at Historic Makeovers the next day. Two days later Kim sent me a picture of a center seam. ( thank God!) and on Monday his team stripped it. Its Carmelita, Nicky, Snakebite wood for sure. Next step with a big help from JJ Blair with an original pick guard and backplates (only things that were missing) the guitar should be on the road this spring.

...not something i have much brain room left to use on learning - - HAHA I can relate.
That forum though drives me nuts a little...besides that one obnoxious boob avatar the one guy has - - Oh my yes! That guy's a complete jerk!
...my extent is just knowing what Joe shirts were available 15 years ago lol and various collectibles I used to search on ebay for all the time. ...what if i find something at a yard sale...that could be a fake but if the person thinks its worth something but doesn't know how much...would i be able to tell so could make some great score...- - Jane, you are the queen of Joe history!
....but fun to follow joe's safari stories. - - Yeah, for sure, but ironic after he said he was taking a break or even quitting collecting new stuff, he had his biggest year ever!
ANYWAY, that LP forum...driving me nuts also...they are asking what is its name...don't they read Joe's instagram lol. - - I see questions like that all the time, when Joe posts the answers, you wonder how these fans don't see all that?! Frustrating, but I was a newbie once too so have to give them a break.
...of course my favorite burst is Principal Skinner...because of the pin connection... - - That is the coolest to see your pin on Skinner!
...if you just cleaned out Grandpa's closet and don't know where to start... - - Good point!
