  • My Latest GMW

    I bought this off of Dan on the HC forum. I guess she has had several previous owners. Maple over alder, Duncan JB, 1 3/4 width at the nut, brass trem, locking tuners. I do wish it had a forearm contour. Sounds nice, plays nice. Lee mentioned it's an older one, but she's in excellent shape. I cleared these pics with him first before I posted.

                  And unless the neck was changed out, it's just 1 5/8's....the skinny neck and single pup was the primary reason I sold it. Outstanding guitar otherwise.

                      Same guitar, yes [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

                      The guy I got it from got it from him...incest I tell you.

                      The only "funky" thing about the guitar is the gold plated two point trem...that stopped a couple people from grabbing it when I had it. I didn't care, I screwed it to the body w/ 5 springs....

                        Nice headstock! If GMW isn't allowed to do any more Stratheads then what's the deal about showing them now? They already got in trouble, it's over isn't it?

                          I guess it's simply not wanting to stir up a sh*tstorm of confusion or pull the tiger's tail....
                          I still want to see pics of GMWs, but I know what various types of headstock look like so I'm happy enough just to see the body!
                          Popular is not the same as good
                          Rare is not the same as valuable
                          Worth is what someone will pay, not what you want to get

                            Yes, sorry, the neck is 1 5/8. It was a typo. It is a very nice guitar. I am actually liking the v-trem, though I'd prefer a Floyd. So starting with GMW, who got it first? Steve, who go it before & after you? Trying to do a little geneology.

                            Thanks to everyone for their kind comments. I enjoy sharing here for that very reason.

                              Markus....very nice grab. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

                              I love the flat tops that Lee makes....I get mine with arm contours...drop tops.
