  • NGD...forum trade :)

    you've all seen her before. courtesy of muttznmongrelz, i've acquired my first gibson...'01 LP studio plus. after playing a strat for a couple months, it's a different sound for sure. i like it. not too crazy about the stock pups (kind of muddy), but we'll see what we can do about that. pretty sure dystrust has a few duncans laying around without homes that he'd be glad to loan to me, for a special favor or two. (that's a joke, btw. ) feels good in my hands, not too heavy. i'm liking the shorter scale too.

    i think she's extra pretty too, dings and all. red's a good color for me. although, if i wind up keeping her long-term, i'll probably swap out the gold hardware for nickel. she's actually been here since tuesday afternoon, and i took pix right away but wasn't entirely satisfied with them because the backdrop (my patio furniture) is also red, but whatev. haven't gotten around to taking more, so they'll have to do for now.











    and dystrust snapped this one tonight...just because we know how much you all appreciate irony.

    SOON, WE WILL ALL HAS A FLAVR!!1!

            Nice LP! Did you trade a guitar for it or ca$h?

                  Nice! I don't care if it's purist-approved or not: TP-6 tailpieces are just COOL. I don't know what pups are in there but if it hasn't been done already, a set of 500k pots ought to wake it right up.

                    Nice Studio and Congratulations. I've been using the stock Burstbucker Pro and 490R in my Studio Deluxe and haven't wanted to change them yet. They actually sound really good and are not muddy. However, my studio is not chambered. Burstbucker Pros and Seth Lovers have a lot of clarity so you might want to check those pickups out if you upgrade.

                        Glad it made it safely and that you're enjoying it. I thought it was a beauty as well, even w/the "character marks" and it did play very nicely. Thanks again!

                          Wow! Sweet looking LP. (I've just become an LP convert myself.)

                          Enjoy.

                            Like I said before, that's an extremely nice looking studio. I'd keep the gold hardware, it has such a great "relic"/worn-in look to it.

                            If clarity is what you want, you gotta try the C/59 hybrid...sparkling tone.
