I tend to agree. When I go back and forth between the two guitars they sound so different. The RY seems more magical and live, rehearsals, and on record it has cut through the mix like Anna Nicole Smith at a biker bar. I'll play the CS tomorrow at rehearsal.
LP Custom R68 with the CS has a maple cap*, mahogany, ebony board
LP Standard with RY has the same woods as above except for aa rosewood board
LP Custom '79 has stock pups maple cap and neck, mahogany body and ebony board
(my other LP I have not mentioned)
Note: the LP Custom 57 RI does not have a maple top
