Re: Something about a Les Paul
Those are nice.
My Number One guitar will always be a G&L Legacy...I've been a strat guy for more than 40 years. But I agree...there's something about a good Les Paul. I have a BUNCH of these G&Ls, but somehow I wound up with 11 Pauls. They are addicting! My favs are the Historics, but I have Classics, Supremes and a Custom Shop Elegant. I always feel like I'm fighting them a bit, but I love the tones from these guitars.
When they are right, they are REALLY right!

Depending on the angle you look at it, my standard either has wicked flame or looks like a plain top. Lol.

Lol. Just received the rack as a gift. I'm more of a bourbon guy. My wife hasn't moved the wine yet. But I'll let her know she needs to get on it.

Feel wise, they are home for me too. Where the controls are, the switch, resting my pinky on the pickup ring, etc. I get right back into the groove.
But I have a devil of a time getting the pickups right in them to get all 3 positions to sound how I want them.

Re: Something about a Les Paul
Have you tried the Whole Lotta Humbucker set yet? Very well balanced in the middle position. Both pickups sound killer on their own. The bridge has that punch we all desire to come out of our Pauls, think of a Toys/Rocks era Perry tone. Put it on the neck position and play Since I've Been Loving You and a single tear will roll down your cheek.

+1. Other than trying different PU's and wirings, there's nothing I'd change about an LP Std or Custom.

Re: Something about a Les Paul
Don't get me wrong, I do love a good strat too... But every time I bring a different guitar to band practice they ask where the Les Paul is. Lol. My bass player , whom I've been playing with for 12 years, says I don't sound right without a Les Paul. Lol
