I couldn't resist the offer to get this 56 LP Custom, even though it needs a lot of work. I thought at the same time I'd include a couple of other new guitars I have got over the last couple of years. First up though is the 56:
The eagle eyed might spot the issues, the worst being the respray where the bindings have been painted in! I'm not so keen on the Bigsby either, but I'll leave it for now. If I can find a scratchplate, then it will cover the hole where someone couldn't be bothered to cut off the screw in the old (long gone) scratchplate!
Next up is my 1970 LP Custom, which is pretty mint. I swapped out the weakish bridge pickup for a Pat # PAF, which had one coil rewound by Tim about 10 years ago. It works really well with the neck pickup (which has a great sweet tone):
Next is my Feline Lion Anniversary, Old #7. It's really hard to photograph, because the burst is different at different angles and lights. However it does look great and plays like a wonder:
From a different angle:
And last, but by no means least is a shot which also includes my Bravewood hardtail 57 strat:
