What has been your best guitar purchase here on TGP?

A one off Swaim Les Paul, all handmade. I bought it as a carcass.. added Zhangbuckers, figured out a tuneamatic that had lower height and had it refretted and the fingerboard planed and sanded because the seller wasn’t up front with me on the neck....body and neck are Korina with a solid 3/4” maple stop. Turned out to be an Amazing guitar in spite of the bridge and neck hassles....

my one and only was an all black 2010 PRS USA TREMONTI signed by mark. A TGP’er let it go for for less than half retail price. I’d never seen one in a store to even try it. But I wanted a souped up single cut. I took a chance and have been over the moon ever since. I love the wide/thin neck. The pickups blow anything I’ve used out of the water. And they clean up well.

 

K-Line T style. Been a few years now. Still in love.

 

I’ve never bought a guitar from TGP

 

The only one I’ve bought here, but she’s my no. 1.

 

Me either. Too high and I'm not cheap either.

 

I've bought lots of wonderful guitars here, Artinger, Soloway, Forshage, Malinoski, Cardinal, Gibson, Fender, etc.

There are others who build and sell/post here I'd love to purchase from.

 

This Mira.



I bought it for the pickups but fell in love with the guitar.

 

There have been many great purchases here!

It wouldn’t be fair to some of the great sellers to forget to mention them!

I’ve purchased guitars, amps, effect pedals, pickups and parts and only had one frustrating experience, that had nothing to do with the seller.

 

I've had some great experiences and gotten some great guitars, but my favorite is probably this '67 Tele from @nl128

 

some people have big guitar budgets on tgp no doubt

 

Have not bought any guitars, but the Harmonic Design Z90s and the Les Trem I bought though the form have been very positive purchases...

@studiodunn built this one for me
Originally JM pickups

This one popped up in the middle of the night a few years ago for $1k shipped....excellent purchase!
2001 Standard

 

My specs are too specific and I don't even bother looking at sales on guitar forums.

 

I’m really happy to hear that.

What a great tele , I hope you enjoy it for years to come .

 

I think I've only bought two guitars here. Both winners...

Koa Anderson...



Quilted Tele style...



Make that 3! Forgot that I got the Kirn Paulownia here...

and sold it back to the guy i bought it from!

 

I ordered this directly from Dan, then like an idiot, declined it when I saw the finished product for some stupid reason. He sold it to a reseller who listed it here a few months later. Fate was calling. Paid $100 or $200 more that what it would have cost me originally.
