FS/FT GSP Quilted Maple LPJ

Richardrichard · January 2023

You've seen this guitar before, it's been around! I bought this on a whim, despite not being a Les Paul fan I've recently been feeling like I should own one, so when this came up again I grabbed it.

It's a nice guitar and built to Graham's usual standards, the P90 actually sounds great but the guitar doesn't do much for me so I'll try something else.

When I got it the neck was slightly rough, so I have re-sanded, oiled and waxed it back to smoothness. Also set it up so the action is nice and low on a new set of NYXL 10's.

Routed for one P90, a second pickup could be added as there are wire runs are under the cap.

Looking for what I paid, which is £400 - collected from Cheshire

Also open to trades, of particular interest would be a Sire L7 or potentially a Vintage V100, maybe there are other similar LP styles. A dual P90 would be interesting. Always open to super strats too. Not interested in 'ordinary' strats, or really anything made by Gibson.
