New Les Paul day boyzzzzz

[Headache]

Another Facebook marketplace impulse buy.

Aka (I sold a guitar so I had cash to burn)



07 Vintage Mahogany Studio in "worn brown?" They called it??

'59-60s slim taper neck shape.

I installed straploks, yanked the pickguard , ordered gotoh chrome keystone tuners for it that should be here today sometime. Off Amazon.

I love the swirls in it, kind of unique. I saw it had Duncans in it, but when I asked, the guy didn't know what models they were.... In my head, any SD would be better than those danged 490t /498 pups the Gibson used in these.

This one doesn't have much wear on it at all. It's minty minus a couple very small dents.

Turns out they are Jazz Neck and Pearly Gates bridge. Not really metal.... But also don't sound bad for metal.... PG is a beautiful pickup.

I haven't decided if this one is staying std tuned or going Drop B with most of my other guitars....

May be a mahogany top. Would have had Burst-Bucker Pro pickups originally…not sure about the neck shape…my 2006 has a slim taper.
Congratulations!

Wood grain rules! I prefer to look at wood rather than paint any day!!!

Same! I also love the matte finishes more than the high gloss too.

I had only seen the pic’s briefly, on my cellphone…now I see, for sure, on a larger screen. Looks fantastic. Loads of character.

I swapped the tuners out for chrome Gotoh keystones... I absolutely can't stand those deluxe Gibson kluson things...

For some reason those gigantic pics in the OP won't load for me, but the Gigantic pics in your last 2 posts do. That's a pretty unique grain. Looks great, congrats!
