I have been the owner of a lovely Les Paul 1960 Classic from '02. It's super; plays beautifully with a beefier neck those 90's Classics. The top has some intriguing figuring on it and I love the honey-burst finish. The pickups are alnico 2's so no overly-hot ceramics here. It's also mint, which is nice.
There is one problem however. I keep looking at R8's and getting serious GAS. I mean, I shouldn't should I? The Classic is just great, so why would I want to change? There really isn't a reason.
This temptation is totally unfounded. Isn't it??? Someone talk me out of this...

I had the same for an R9, however, due to problems with travel, I never looked at any to buy. For now, the fad is under control.
At least an R8 or 9 is reasonable for a sane normal person. I keep getting gas for that white burst Signature T in Thomanns, I know its the price that has me by the throat, but still - is this normal GAS behaviour ?
what you really want is this......at FB price of course![;) ;)](/plugins/EmojiExtender/emoji/fb/3.gif)
