Vintage size butyrate mounting ring set
I have purchased four pairs of these mounting rings, one black, one vintage white and two cream. The cream and vintage white are excellent in quality and colour, and two pairs with the best colour "match" are now on my Gibson Murphy Lab Les Pauls. They are much better than the stock surrounds that came on these guitars. The black pair weren't quite so good, or too be more accurate, the lower surround for the neck pickup wasn't. It was a little twisted and there was a very visible mark that ran the length of the edge that faces the player. At first I thought it was a scratch, but it won't buff out completely, so I think it could be a moulding blemish. Not the end of the world and quite likely a one-off issue. The twist disappeared once the ring was screwed to the guitar top (on my Les Paul Custom). The service from Philadelphia Luthiers to myself in the UK was excellent. Quick and well-packed.

Les Paul 50s Standard back to tall correct color
These are just what the doctor ordered. I got the vintage white, that is you look in the beauty of the burst book is the correct color, even for aged guitars. These are a little wider than Gibson USA rings. I ordered the modern Gibson pickguard and had to sand the neck pickup cutout slightly for these to fit. Not hard and that is the correct pickguard to get for my 2019 les Paul 50s standard

Finally historic accurate parts for a very low price!
The right color, right feel, right smell and most importantly the right price! Why pay hundreds for a replica set when you can get the same for a tenth of the price!

Ideal product!!
The detail and price are perfect and satisfactory. I own several expensive M69s and they are not inferior at all. The vintage white is a very slightly dull white, but should be considered almost white. I use DYLON to color it a light beige.

The best

Vintage butyrate mounting rings
Brilliant product at good price

Very nice!
I've purchased all 3 color versions. The black ones are very nice. The white ones are maybe a little too white when compared to a vintage M69. I prefer the cream, it's a lighter shade and looks nice. The cream is a lighter shade than my Gil Yaron rings.

Great Pup rings
Fit my 2013 LP traditional perfectly. Colour and dimensions are spot on. Much better quality than stock plastics. Smooth transition and fast international shipping.

Great for relic work.
Needed these to restore a vintage Gibson, rings took the aging process we)l and matched the broken originals.
