A good trade? My first les paul!

^ yeah. adam's looks really nice, but some of them look a bit basic. There's something inherently cool about something which looks basic, but rocks, though. I can't explain it.  :twisted:

I dont really like the colour, but its definitely better looking than any superstrat, and probably sounds miles better!


It is a bit bright, i've decided that it's the black pickups and black pickup rings that make it look a bit ugly, i'll be changing those to a nice cream set with Zebra black dogs, then it'll look the business...

It looks a lot better in person though, definately :)

:P Sorry, I think I've just gone off superstrats now, kinda bored of the 80s music ( :o  :o ), and prefer the sound of a nice chunk of mahogany  :)

i think the black contrasts quite well.

and the GS's that i played had really dodgy frets..... maybe theyd been refretted by an amateur?? they were second hand and in the rip off shop./.....

or maybe they were made like that intentionally cos the staff are ####!!s and dont like people playing ANY of there instruments unless they pay for them first
