    SOLD: FS/T Epiphone Rivoli 1997 with hard case

    in Basses For Sale

    Posted · Edited by robocorpse

    Lovely 1997 Rivoli, Peerless-built, scratchplate included (dunno why everyone loses them!), original "E" logo hard case, plays well.
    Nickel bridge has some lovely patina to it, currently wearing roundwounds and they need changing, but I'm holding off as the new owner might wanna put flatwounds or black nylons on it and set it up to their own requirements, so I am selling it as it stands. Couple of little marks here and there, one small nick on the back.
    Sounds monster, especially with the bass boost engaged. Thumpy thumpy thump!
    Looking for 525 ovno, or might consider an Ampeg 410HLF, a decent guitar 4x12 or an 80s Charvel or Jackson guitar as PX.
    Pick up in London (or Letchworth by arrangement), or insured courier for 25.00
    (the light patches on 1st picture near the bridge are light reflections, not wear marks)

    SOLD : Genuine LAG Rockline Laser superstrat (original French built)

    NOW SOLD


    This is also on a well known auction site, but I've reduced the price a bit for BC'ers, and I'll consider trades.

    1987 LAG Rockline Laser superstrat, original French built, w/ Floyd Rose upgrade!
    This is the REAL THING, not one of the modern Chinese ones.
    Built in 1987 in the original French factory, neck serial and body stamps match.

    The original locking tremolo wasn't great, so it was replaced with a genuine Floyd Rose tremolo several years ago (that was 175 quid on its own back then!) as a direct drop-in replacement, no surgery was needed to do this, and I have the original tremolo block if you want it. Apart from this, the guitar is completely original with factory-fitted 1980s Seymour Duncans, Schaller heads etc. Volume pot and all switches work well with no issues. Guitar stays in tune very well, there is no noticeable wear on the Floyd posts or knife edges. It is currently set up with 10-46 strings.

    Bad points: Floyd has a lot of cosmetic wear (the black coating on the old Floyds is notorious for wearing off), and the saddles were changed for chrome ones. Seemed like a cool idea at the time. There is a lot of scuffing on the back, but nothing down to the wood, and a lot of it will buff out if you can be bothered to get busy with the T-Cut and some polish. Trem backplate and TRC are lost in the mists of time, but backplates are under a fiver off eBay.

    Guitar was strung about a year ago with DR Neons for a video shoot, then the guitar went back in its case. There is some wear on the coating on the high strings, but I HAD to leave them on for the photos because it looks amazing with them against the green laser lines.

    I am told there were less than 300 of the green Lasers made, due to the fiddly spray job required and the Lag factory only turning out around 60-70 guitars a month in total, and I haven't seen another one of these for sale for some considerable time.

    Comes as shown in the photo with period-correct 1980s hard case and tremolo arm included.
