I'm humbled by the education.I’ve never played a vintage either. But I can assure you, other than the “feel,” a vintage instrument is no better or worse than any other les paul. Only rarer. They all sound the same with whatever amp your fav player used. Sans flipped pickups for OOP tone.
Don’t think so? EVH used a PAF for most part in his frankenberry guitar. His son was recently filmed playing a copy and the tone was exact. I had a laney supergroup with a Dallas range master and the tone was exact to sabbath and barely noticeable whether using a vintage P-90 equipped SG or a Les paul with custombuckers. You can’t hear wood in tone. If you knock on it? Yep. But electronically? Hell no. Wood isn’t taken into effect. It’s a load of BS
