• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!
  • WE ARE MOVING THE LES PAUL FORUM TO A NEW HOSTING PROVIDER OVER THE NEXT 5-10 DAYS. We will experience downtime during that period. Please be patient and have confidence that we will return! Many thanks, Mike Slubowski, Admin

An excellent looking guitar.. I’m sure it plays as good as it looks..
I’ve been looking for a Van Eps string dampener for ages.. they’re very allusive .. if not unobtainable.

Nice guitar! Gretsch and "issue free" is almost an oxymoron. LOL My friend Pete who deals a lot of archtops had one recently, but it had the dreaded binding rot.
