    My flame top 1989 Les Paul Custom:

    Comment


    • #32
      Posted my #1 LP above, but I have others. Not all are Gibsons - In the late 90 & early 2000s I discovered how great some of the MIJs were and went on a bit of a binge when they were still selling for way below their value. Between Gibson, Orville, Burny and Greco, these are the ones I've kept.

      This Orville was special ordered in raspberry quilt with gold hardware & matching headstock.
      No pickguard or pokerchip, hallmark of custom builds from FujiGen.
      I've seen red ones, but I never saw another in raspberry - in person it's actually pretty pinkish.


      '77 Greco with the Duncan Mayhem set - the hottest pickups in my fleet.


      Black Beauty reissue


      My other Custom, a Burny that has faded to a nice shade of ivory


      This goldtop has Wolfetone Caretakers and a fat '58 profile neck


      Satin trans purple finish and a P90 neck pickup. I love P90s.


      This '96 faded orange drop has Sheptones; I named it Unburst.


      '05 Trad Plus in Heritage Cherry


      Sturdy reliable workhorse, the LP Special with a DiMarzio P90-sized hum at the bridge


      Bought this Chibson for hazard duty, after a bandmate's '68 Goldtop got stolen at a gig down the Bowery

        A few others that are more or less Les Paul-ish...

          Ah, I think the point was the thread is "Lets see your Les Paul", as in everyone is posting one, or more, Les Pauls that they actually own. So yeah, it appears you went a bit off-topic in your own thread. You should know how the natives are restless by now.

              Was not about owners. Was about Les Paul guitars but nice try.
              I gotta say ive been on about every guitar / amp forum in the Hemisphere and this one is the weirdest and most cloistered.
              At least is is now.

                      I don't know what that is, but it's amazing. Almost time-warp invisible.

                        It is an Alumisonic. Chrome plated 6061 aluminium.
                        The fellow who made them was from New York, but I think he has closed up shop. Too bad because he made a quality guitar.

                                I checked out that website. Google does say the business is "permanently closed". Way out of my price range used at 8 to 10K, but that LP is gorgeous and I'd love to try playing one.
                                Take it to the limit
                                Everybody to the limit
