Hi all,
This guitar is passed down by an uncle which I believe to be a 1980s LP copy.
It's MIJ, and not the MIC starter copies that we see around of late.
I only managed to find some info on the net on this LP copy
http://xoomer.virgilio.it/vintagestagg/4107/index.html
The guitar is in workable condition
By that, meaning the pickups work and the tone/volume pots, though not the smoothest, respond to a certain extend without crackling.
The stock tuners broke and I dumped in a working set of tuners on.
I was wondering if it's worth getting it properly pimped up
anyone keen to help me do an analysis? on or offline?
Here's a couple of pics
Headstock
Body (pickguard has broken, thus I removed it)
any advice greatly appreciated! (who to bring it to? pickup upgrade? estimated cost? etc)
Disclaimer:
I am an acoustic player, with little knowledge on electric guitars
But won't mind a fine workable LP in my arsenal
Thanks!
Cheers,
Zhong
