Les Paul Owners Club!

Show us your Lesters... Gibsons, Epiphones... Whatever...

Here's my Gibson Custom Shop VOS 1960 Plain Top Les Paul. Probably the most perfect guitar I have ever played. DMace likes it too - don't you Doug??

Yes you can pull out on the tuners it makes a little click sound which disconnects it from the motor then you can tune it manually.

Here's my Les Paul style guitar. Couldn't rationalize the real deal, but still wanted a decent guitar, and this Prestige Heritage Standard works for me when I want that heavy dual humbucker tone.

I have this double cut special, but maybe not for much longer -a plain ol' black SG is calling my name methinks.

My 2007 Les Paul BFG

I replaced the Bridge pick up with a Seymour Duncan P-Rail and added the three way switch to control all 3 positions of the P-Rail. (Small one by the Volume and Tone Knobs)
I also moved the Pick up control to the normal upper bout position and ditched the original "Kill Switch"
I had all the cavities copper shielded to quiet the P-90's and it sounds fantastic and is a joy to play

Les Paul Standard 1990









Pickups are Shadow EQ5 with onboard pre and post gain with five band eq.

The "pole pieces" are actually the adjusters for the eq.

Double Cut Standard Plus w/Bigsby B3 and Manlius asymetrical humbuckers. Gets a great Tele twang with a coil-tap. A great Rock and Rockabilly axe.

The better Les Paul as some people claim? Probably not, but a fine pice of japanese craftmanship built 25 years ago by the Matsumoku company:

Here's my Les Paul Junior Lite. A two pickup model from 2001 - I put a Gibson minihumbucker in the neck and swapped the stacked P-100 for a real P-90:









Here's my '57 reissue Les Paul Custom:






My other Gibson is a tricked out ES-135.

I've had many LPs over the years, and loved 'em all, but these days I'm down to one: an Epi 56 Gold Top. P90s rule! CS
