I believe this may be the most hideous Les Paul Gibson ever made...

What say you, Forum chums?

    I mean, yeah... probably one of them. But it's not like it doesn't have competition!

    It's actually quite restrained given what they could have done with that tie-in...

    I can think of worse ones.

    Nawww, any Les Paul Custom is surely the most hideous LP :)

    "The modifications : Sperzel tuner installed (I do not have the original) - Sheptone Vintage PAF pick ups installed (I do not have the originals) - New tune o matic and stopbar installed (I do not have the originals). Pick guard installed."

    So it basically has none of the original hardware - makes that certificate pretty pointless.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Gibson drove the bulldozer over some of these they had left in the corner of the warehouse.

    Gibson do have a history of association with Playboy tat, but the pink glitter is beyond kitsch.

    I've certainly seen worse. 

    If you're going pink why not go pink sparkle?!  :)

    Better than pink Paisley anyway.... ;)

    I don't mind the sparkle finish - I think it's quite cool in a glam rock sort of way.  But all the Playboy rabbit logos would have to go.

    That 335/355 reminds me of Joe Perry's guitar with an ever-so-tasteful picture of his wife on it.

    THAT, on the other hand, looks like someone's sheepishly regretted craft project.  What goes through their minds, sometimes?
