Exactly. Gibson Solid Guitar. Seems like a good enough name to me  :lol:

'solid guitar'

considering the Les Paul was still in production at the time

I thought it was 'standard guitar' but wikipedia and gibsons website seems to agree with you guys.

Hmm maybe I should start a thread on pointless guitar names.  :lol:

Mind you, "Stratocastor" is pretty weird a name.  :lol:

Les Pauls, I have to say, I hate the stereotypical goldtop or '58/'59 mahogany top design. I've really gone off the way they look for some reason.  :roll:  Maybe its saturation and all that?

Didnt fender or vox do a "teardrop" guitar. Now thats a cool name!  8)

That's hot.

I played a Jimmy page signature Les Paul, it needed no pickup change. It was amazing. Best feeling guitar I've felt. That's amazing considering I like my ESP LTD EC-1000 ($700 guitar) better than most Gibson Les Pauls.

Spanish Luthier?

I quite like the work of Neil Morgan of Morgan Custom Guitars  :P  :P  He does LP style, though he's usually asked to keep things traditional from the looks of the website. You wanna see his tele style guitar with a bigsby  :wink:

Page could get that tone out of ANYthing



and he regularly does


disk 2, during Kashmir (i think) he plays a strat, and it still sounds just as good as the Les Paul, and still is pure Page

Wrong.  SG replaced the Les Paul name in 1961/62.  The original SGs were called Les Pauls as they replaced the LP we know and love.  Les didn't like the new design and took his name off it.
