Gibson LP Voodoo

[Jaganath]

Has anyone here owned or played one of these babies?!

Gibson Les Paul Voodoo

They're discontinued now I understand, and the chances of there being a lefty version are pretty slim - but they are my favorite Gibsons and I'd love to know if they sound as good as the classic LP's.

Re: Gibson LP Voodoo

I found them to be significantly brighter than a standard. Most likely due to the Swamp Ash body and Ebony fretboard. It wasn´t bad, but for my personal taste it wasn´t "les paul enough" either

YMMV

Not sure about the LP or the other models, but the VooDoo SG is super hot looking!!!

theyre very rare in britain - i've only ever seen a couple on sale, both times it was a 'look, but don't touch' shop *sigh*

Re: Gibson LP Voodoo

im not a huge fan of that lp in particular. But whatever floats your boat! im guessing the wood would change the tone quite a bit. And the look isnt my taste either but im sure its a good guitar, just not true to the les pal tone or look.

Re: Gibson LP Voodoo

those things are freakin' sweet!

they have those super hot pups 500T in bridge...

they look pretty cool too, I bet the tuners hold notes under detuned conditions like their predecessors = gothic IMO

Re: Gibson LP Voodoo

They are very heavy guitars though.
