The JP gets my vote, however, IMO there should have been separate threads (one for solid colors, one for flametops, and one for plaintops.) as most people will pick a killer flametop over a solid color or plaintop anyday. The 59 LPs were and still are the holy grail LP for a reason.....

What is it ? Most people have never played one. They wern't that popular when new,Gibson stopped making them. Could be a myth. I'd love to get my hands on one though.

Bursts ('58-'60 LP Stds) have aged well, both wood and PU's. Their tone's changed over the decades, and that's also helped by the design of thick mahogany and a maple cap, and a short rigid single-cutaway neck. And a pair of PAF's, the "holy grail of PU's" doesn't hurt the tone either. The sum is greater than the parts. They're far more valuable than any other production guitar, on a par with original V's (extremely rare), excepting of course, guitars belonging to someone famous. If I remember correctly (from a blue book of guitar values), several years ago Bursts were about 8 to 10 times more valuable to collectors than 1950's Strats and Teles.
Having Page, Green, Clapton, Richards, Bloomfield, etc playing Bursts was pretty good marketing for Bursts and the LP mystique too.
