I’ve wanted one of these since HS in the 90’s. Looks like I should have made it happen, they are increasing in price!

Re: I’ve always wanted one of these... (JP Les Paul)
Well, the price says $5,000 when I access the link, and it's not a run of the mill LP. It's a Jimmy Page signature guitar with an AA top, Jimmy Page wiring, 59' LP neck profile and historic hardware with the ABR-1 and studs vs. the normal Nashville bridge and studs. All of the Jimmy Page sig guitars hold their value well and are more pricy.

But with an LP, that's kinda bs, because it's still an LP with very minor tweaks, and the LPs that hold and increase value are still gonna be 30-40 years older.
Sig guitars never go up in value in a big way unless it's some contest award where they physically play your future guitar, sign it on camera, and then let you take pictures partying with the band backstage...or much at all unless some huge lawsuit stops production and they're an oddball that isn't actually supposed to exist but somehow does"New stuff always sucks" -Me

Re: I’ve always wanted one of these... (JP Les Paul)
Btw, an anyone-signature les paul is a bloody oxymoron, since it's LES PAUL'S signature guitar
Especially since they only one with any significant deviation from the LES PAUL signature model is the Alex Lifeson model, which actually WAS a buncha genuine changes co-designed with the dude whose name was on it.... which is probably why it got its own name, the Les Paul Axcess model, rather than that signature-in-signature nonsenseLast edited by Adieu; 10-19-2018, 02:57 PM."New stuff always sucks" -Me

Re: I’ve always wanted one of these... (JP Les Paul)
I kinda wanted one too when they came out. Lucky for me, I can deal with a 50s neck..
yeah, prices have gone up a bunch.. I remember back in the late 80s.. wanted a Black LP Custom. They were $1999.00 then and I couldnt swing it. Wish I had, cuz I sure cant do the $4k now...Believe me when I say that some of the most amazing music in history was made on equipment that's not as good as what you own right now.
