Hi, I'm new to this forum ( and Tokai ) and I'm just looking for a bit of advice on which Guitar to buy. Tomorrow I'm going to look at a couple of guitars with a view to purchasing one of them. One is a 1979 LS-60 Reborn ( cherry burst with exposed pickups, i.e no nickel covers ) in original and, judging by the photos, excellent condition. The other is a late model ( not sure which year but serial number starts with 14 ) LS-173, black or ebony finish, all original and in mint condition. The LS-60 is about $900 US and the LS-173 is $1150 US. Anyone have a view to which is the guitar to get ? Of course I'm going to demo both but with different amps and setups it's probably not going to be straightforward. Cheers.
