• 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!

Beat but Sweet...

As many guitars as you have played and owned, this one must be something magical :jim

Absolutely killer! I've found you get much better results by shimming the bridge pickup, instead of raising the poles higher. Having said that, it looks like the strings might hit the pickup cover?

Either way, beautiful guitar Kim!

Almost. It's been shaved down and sitting on top of the original tailpiece stops.
It's set to float but I used super glue around the stops.
It hasn't moved in 10 years.

Hey Kim, don't know if you remember but I played that guitar at your place back in '08. It's an amazing guitar, it both looks cool and sound great.

Please forgive my covetous wandering eye for that guitar.

That 'thang was made for heavy pettin'.

And the back of the neck is gnarly as hell!

Love it looooong time.
