There has been little talk of this one..

I wouldn't mind picking one up and overhauling the plastics and wiring. Great color, and they have big necks.

That's the kind of Peter Green/Gary Moore look, isn't it?

Hmm...I think all of the Gary Moores I've seen must've had the knobs replaced or its only on certain signature models.

That is very interesting...never thought of that before but I rarely use my tone knobs and I haven't used a Les Paul in a quite some time.

I personally would change the knobs, but thats just me lol Betcha its a great guitar though!

I play with the tone knobs a lot too, and I can tell you that when you go to roll off the tone and hit the volume, it's annoying. I'd switch the knobs and have the volume knobs be the same and the tone knobs be the same.

I bet it is annoying hitting the volume instead of tone...time to fake an intentional volume swell if during a live gig

I just use volume swells to simulate a pad synth on the guitar. And I have a pedal to do those.
