Albert Lee SSS hardtail G21505

Thanks in advance

Graham

Dan,
Thanks for the details of my guitars.
Whilst looking closely at my headstock on the Albert (G21505) I believe it may have been swapped out in the past. It looks to be a tobacco burst, whereas the body is vintage sunburst. Or is the difference of the brown color merely the differenc between the two pieces of timber?
Would your records indicate the originally spec?

G27104
Thankyou
Graham

Hey Keith! Bailey is one happy dog. But since we got rid of the carpet and put in laminate floors (necessary with 5 cats & 2 dogs, trust me), Bailey has a little trouble getting traction when he runs through the house. He reminds me of the old Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters that would run in place for a couple of seconds before they actually take off running. It is too funny!

Your SUB-1 guitar in Textured Red was built on 5/12/04 and was sent to a store called Action Sound in Kilgore, Texas (no longer an MM dealer). I expect they had this in their NOS collection?

Say hi to Bunny and the rest of the family!

Dan

This EVH Trans Red beauty was built on 3/6/95 and was shipped to the old EU Wurllitzer company in Boston, MA.

Nice!

Brad, to me it appears the headstock is the right combo of colors. The tobacco burst would not have have the red/orange layer in it, it is most likely the types of wood (ash and maple) that make the difference..

Also - that serial number does not match up with your guitar - would you recheck it please?

Nice!

Ooops, it was 21507.

Brad, definitely Vintage Sunburst - your guitar was completed on 11/12/02, and it is showing in our records as a VSB.
