• 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!

Finally!!!

Ok,

She's here, and I can't wait to get home later and plug her in...

I even put the new pickup covers on in the truck!!!!

But, I stopped off in a field, cause I knew you'd want PICTURES!!!!

SO, Here you go.....

The left one is the new one!
Great guitar, Mark, congrats.

But I've got a question: Where can I find info about the R4s? Seems like they are not mentioned on gibsoncustom.com... Hmm.

People stop in the middle of the road and into the fields to have sex. You stopped in the middle of the road to take a picture of your guitar. Funny how this makes us all do pretty silly things! Your not the only one and if I had a nickel for all the stupid things I've done... LOL.. I'd get a burst. lol

Beautiful guitar! I played an original over the weekend!

You are right....you should have seen me with the guitar sitting on the center armrest replacing pickup covers before the picture could be taken!

The things we do for LP's!?!?!?

Thanks for the comments...

Thanks Guys - I am a happy guy.

Tone report: I got her home, and pulled the strings, gave the board a bit of moisture, and restrung, tweaked the truss rod just a tad.

WOW - this is one ringing bell. Acoustically she sings...plugged in, it sounds fantastic. The cleans were crisp & warm....the leads seemed to just jump out.

First gig is tonight, I'll post more after spending time in a live situation.

WOW...

After the first Gig, I am really happy with this guitar. It really "sang"...and made it hard to put it down, but I wanted to play a humbucker LP after for awhile to compare in the live setting.

Might have to make this P-90 guitar my #1!?!?

R4's rock...that's all there is to it, and there's a ton of forum brother with new to them R4's lately!!!!

Hell yeah man!
That's a cool ride.

Seems like R4s are on the brain around here. I'm loving my new one.

Nic pic. On my computer, your goldtop looks like mine in real life, for anyone who cares. Sometimes the goldtops don't photograph well, or maybe there is a lot of variability in the gold color--I don't know. But to me, this is the killer goldtop coloring.:dude:
