The Ultimate Gibsons Les Paul Custom Replica - A New Twist:

I bet them boys at Guitar Sinner love you .....................

I would say the ones here love me --- but every time I go in there are different overly tattooed hipsters in skinny jeans running the thing.....

They are cool, Man. The manager sends a few back that I have black-flagged....
 
Just a short video foolin' around on the LPC Replica, still with all of its loaner hardware and Epiphone Burstbuckers through DSL40C with no effects...

That is indeed a full-blooded strat...

Just a DiMarzio Stacked Single Coil I bought in 1992 with 10k. Used it until 2011, then swapped in twin humbuckers, but the DP404 sounds bigger and meaner, so it went back in.

Middle pickup is a 1982 DiMarzio HS3 DP117 with a 1995 DP217 YJM in the neck...

That Strat is also the heaviest one I have ever played at over 10 pounds...

It was bought for me by bandmates in 1988, and I keep it for that reason alone. It has popped up on a few recordings over the years.

One thing...those DiMarzio's are THE QUIETEST puckups I have ever used. Even at full gain through my DSL40C they have zero floor noise.

Even my humbuckers are noisier!!!

The back of my current pickguard showing vintage DiMarzio's, aluminum shield and 220k ohm resistor on the bridge pickup to trim the highs...all installed in the 1980's.
