My knees have just gone weak. Stunning LP sir.

I'm sticking with Les Paul faded mid 2000's.

There is a prize, right??

No wait. Wrong tuners.

Plus the plastics and binding aren't baby pink / orange.

OK, the history is thus;

It was originally going to be an R0. All the cavities are marked so. However, there's a weight limit on R's, and this was 1/2oz over. (It's 9.3lbs.) and Gibbo put in into stock. I paid £1200 for it.

So there you have it.

Thought it looked heavy.  :P

That could describe lots of gibsons, unfortunately.

Where do you find these things!?

That is one lovely top!! Great find.
You leaving the pickups and hardware stock?

oldfoxy

Far too many good lookin' Lesters being posted on here at the moment. Not good for GAS............

Super nice!

Nunogilberto

Lovely top on that...

hubobulous

That's a great top irrespective of price. £1200 just makes it sweeter. Great purchase!

You're welcome James

There are a lot of beautiful guitars, but a slightly flamey, faded sunburst Les Paul is the best looking guitar out there. HNGD.

Arrived! Immense top!! The pics don't do it justice but it's amazing

johnonguitar

Nice. This thread is not helping me with my insane GAS ahead of my own Les Paul splurge

streethawk

Beauty!

Most impressed that you have a swiss army knife handy, don't know where I'd be without mine.

@johnonguitar

If you want a lovely trad for 1200 I know where there's a beauty. Brand new virtually. Amazing top, similar look to mine.

I really want to capture the top- it's a 9/10 and better than the R9 I sold last month by a mile (not quite as light weight wise)

ennspek

That's lovely.
