I purchased this guitar a while back for $203 of off Aliexpress (see the link to the review below). It is by far one of the best Chinese Les Pauls I have worked on. The finish is great. I dropped in a pair of Seymour Duncans, a Pinnacle small pin bridge, wired in push/pull pots along with a couple of decals.

Purchased the guitar from Guitar Center for a great price and it's in excellent condition. It just needs some re-crowning work to take care of some flat spots on the frets.

500K, 250K? Which potentiometer should you install in your guitar?
A potentiometer, informally a pot, is a three-terminal resistor with a sliding or rotating contact that forms an adjustable voltage divider. If only two terminals are used, one end and the wiper, it acts as a variable resistor or rheostat.

DO IT
do-it-yourself-adventures-in-fretboard
In this video, which is a compilation of Facebook updates, I will take you through my adventure (and it was an adventure) of replacing the fretboard on the second of three Gibson Baldwin guitars I purchased. This guitar cost $50 (Craigslist) and was in rough shape when I bought it. The guitar was loaded up with dirt, grime and grunge along with a fretboard that had the frets spaced incorrectly.
This was my first attempt at replacing a fretboard and painting / refinishing the neck. It was a great experience and so I thought I would share it with my fellow guitar enthusiasts.
End result? I'm happy with it... but this type of work will take time and a lot of patience when factoring in the paint / finishing process (took me 6 weeks).
All the parts were sourced from Aliexpress, eBay and Amazon (Chinese suppliers) to keep the total cost of refurbishing the guitar to a minimum.
Run time = ~1 hour 46 minutes
