Re: Flametop Pauls

I have absolutely no problem admitting I'm jealous of alot of those dude's collections!! I still figure I'm doin ok for a ditch digger....lol

A ditchdigger that can do justice to his collection, unlike some of those
guys that got hip to guitars' value, before learning to play it.

Here is my 01 R8 in Butterscotch not the greatest flame but nice anyways

I also added 2 really cool LPs to my LP Collection this week:

The first one is a one of kind Custom Shop Stinger R7 instead of the usual gold top this is a one time paint job through cheesecloth in a light root beer. It has Gold Hardware and plays like no other LP I’ve owned before. The neck is perfect….

The second is the first factory released 04 LP Standard Limited Edition in Manhattan Midnight…. It has a nice flame but it doesn't show that well in the pics. It also has nice plaintop grain. This was hand picked at Gibson as the best one available. It is a regular Gibson USA Guitar also plays beautifully

I also dig my Platinum Studio It looks way better in person than the pics on the Gibson Web Site:

Re: Flametop Pauls

Most delectible specimens of Paul! I think I actually saw Jesus' image in that
R7! I'd kill a man for that Butterscotch monstertop.
I love a good looking stable of Les Pauls. I've been looking at some of those
blue Std's. For some reason, I see that guitar as a good one to try a set
of Custom 5/59 black/WHITE zebras.

On the blue one I actually put a White Duncan SH5 in it and I just ordered white speed knobs and a white pickguard

Re: Flametop Pauls

Nice one, Fresno Bob. I was just playing my 3 pickup Black Beauty last night.
I love all my Pauls, but that just may be my best one. The neck couldn't be more perfect, and 3 pup Pauls are the type you scoff at when buying, but grow to love quickly! That one in your link is stupendous!
