Hi everyone

I'm offering the body, original neck, fretboard, and ebony bridge/tailpiece of a once Heritage H575---their version of the ES-175. Heritage guitars are made by some of the old Gibson craftsman in the old Gibson factory, to old Gibson standards.

I purchased this guitar in 2002. The headstock was cracked in shipping when I later sold the guitar

Hmm. The second half didn't post.

I purchased this guitar in 2002. The headstock was cracked in shipping when I later sold it, but I managed to get it back from UPS with the intention of making a new neck and replacing the electronics with boutique parts.

Well, I've lost interest. So I'd like to sell the project to anyone who may have some interest.

I've done a bit of work, and you can see more pictures and details here. Please know that I made the site with a totally different audience in mind.

OLF price: $290 including case + shipping.

Hey everyone

I have this last of three necks Jim Olson made for me a few years ago. Mahogany/Maple w/dovetail joint. No truss rod, but it comes with a ready-to-go ebony fretboard. You will need to carve the transition from neck to headstock back. See the pics.

$70 + shipping

Link to site

I'm willing to customize this site I made with a luthier in mind. It's driven
by a content management system that lets you update all the text
via a web-interface -- not at all unlike posting to this forum.    

The layout will not change. Of course the number of navigation buttons
at the top will be changed to suit your needs.

- Your logo or another design element will go in the upper left where I
have a the white box acting as a placeholder.
- Colors and typefaces (the fonts) will be altered to suit your taste.
- Pictures will go in the space to the left.

$200 -- a great way for some of you to get into a professional site.
It won't take me long to altar things for you.

Nice looking website James!

Do you also help people figure out how to change things on their existing websites? I have a website but would like to make some changes to it and am not familiar with whatever software was used to do the changing pictures.
