Watch out for these Gibson guitars or ones with defaced serial numbers!!!!!
Our Cloud 9 buddy Cramer (formerly of the Music Machine store) had his home in Bellingham, Washington broken into over the holiday weekend and 2 of his Gibson Les Pauls were taken.
The Cloud 9 has been recovered!!!!!
Watch out for:
Gibson Les Paul '54 Chambered Reissue "Cloud 9" in Iced Tea burst finish. Serial # CR44008. This was in a black Gibson hardshell case.
Gibson Les Paul '57 Reissue Les Paul Junior, cherry red finish. Serial # 741752. This was also in a black Gibson hardshell case.
Please keep an eye out and if you see or hear anything contact the Bellingham Police at (360) 676-6913, then contact Aaron Cramer at (509)-430-9002. These guitars have a lot of sentimental value and I've worked very hard to get them. I am willing to provide a cash reward for the return of these guitars.
Thank you, Cramer

4 of our favorite dealers closed the Fender USA plant for a day and took over production!
Click on one of these dealers below and check out these new Fender Thin Skin's!
Featuring lightweight bodies, a "Thin Skin" nitrocellulose lacquer finish (just like the Custom Shop does it), and 6105 fret wire, these instruments have all the vintage look and feel you've come to expect from Fender's American Vintage Series, plus the singing sustain and chime you get with taller, wider fret wire and a nitro finish.
