• 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!

Hey guys,

Thanks to all for steering me to Marks. Picked up my first Paul (2011 R9 Bourbonburst) after playing Strats for decades, and she's a beaut and a real player.

Only complaint is the case; I like to occasionally lean my Fender against the open top of its rectangular case. I'm glad I didn't try that with the Les Paul as the retaining strap pulled out after maybe the 10th opening. Couple of crappy staples holding it in.

I'll try to figure out how to post a few pics...

Congrats!

But how did "we" steer you anywhere before your first post? You're welcome?

I'll post some pics as soon as I can take some in sunlight - its been pissing rain forever around here.

I was steered by the forum to Mark's by being a "lurker" for some time now.

The pissing rain certainly does have something to do with those of us living in the northeast! :pop
