    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?? :D

    I don't have a pic of it, but...

    here's one from Pete Towshend's collection back in The Who days:

    Nice LPs!!
    I was gonna include my LP style guitar but after seeing all these I think I will leave it out!
    I really want one but they are just so expensive! :(

    This is a really stupid question but you know the way the robot tunes automatically are you able to tune it manually if need be?
    Cheers

    When I get a second I'll have to get a pic, but my baby is a '97 Ruby Red Studio Gem... Gotta love the P-90's!

    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.

    Count me in! 1973 Les Paul Custom, which I've had for--sheesh!--nearly 30 years now. Sorry, no photos right now.

    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 :D

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

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