Re: Once you buy a nice Les Paul it takes the GAS out of you.
Wow, that's a beautiful guitar, congratulations - I'm not that jazzed on Les Pauls in general -I like 60s LP specials -such as the 1961 TV (Even the SGs) -for me the neck profile, radius, nut width -everything is better for my hand and the tones are less ubiquitous in rock with the P90s- granted there probably isn't an LP special thats as beautiful as your LP - but I think a Vintage Gibson LP Special, or a 60s Vintage J Acoustic would give me that feeling your getting -but congrats on achieving the lonely emptiness that comes with a completed quest. lol
BTW I love Fenders -but there is no exotic Fender that would give me that feeling because Fenders were inherently cheaper guitars (Maple, Bolt on necks, no head offset, pickup cavity, stamped bridge etc etc) with just the most magical pickups -so a simple American version of any makes me happy -Generally speaking, you can't really get quite as artistically exotic on a Fender like you can on a Gibson with a through neck, curves, carved tops, control cavity, inlays, and other luthier touches inherit to the design that Leo purposefully avoided. Granted there are exceptions -but I mean in general an American Standard Fender is a killer instrument in its simplicity and doesn't really crave the craftsman touches that a Gibson does -and that your beautiful guitar screams.
