No need to leave a huge paragraph...but I love this guitar, sounds and feels like an old les paul standard, and i've played a 59 les paul before. This one is .....I have no idea how they did it...but they made this guitar really special. Took some pictures today as well as some gear i got to play it through! The Serial Number is 155.

I love the way the Shanks looks! I went shopping for one, but the one I tried didn't have the 'magic'. I love the necks on them too! Enjoy!

The action isn't high at all on the shanks, my other guitar in the picture on Photobucket, that was my other guitar, that actually is high on it, still need to adjust it.

But i made a quick video/sound clip of the guitar through a Marshall.

I had to turn everything off because it was freaking loud...and...well...damn neighbors...besides that, i totally forgot to check if it was clipping or not and couldn't remake another recording. I did fail on that part, but will be uploading a better sounding clip in the near future! ...when the neighbors aren't home ;)

Yep, count me as another happy CC7A (#067) player, even through this ridiculously loud :)## ) (but fun) rig.



P.S. Thanks for the outside grass shot Vic... friendly reminder it does NOT feel like spring here yet.
