It's one of my favorites.  I bought it new in 2005.  Several other guitars have come and gone in that time including a Les Paul Custom.  The pickups are pretty hot compared to my other stuff.  I did have to replace the wiring and selector switch as Gibson was using crap components back then.

I've considered selling most of my stuff off.  The Les Paul and the Explorer would be the ones I keep, or the last to go.

The price on the new Explorers is ridiculous.  I paid $900 for mine.  Inflation doesn't make it a $2500 guitar.

I bought that EPI Les Paul about a decade ago.  It sounds great, but I don't like the neck profile.  I gave it to my son five years or so ago, but he recently traded it back for a Charvel I had.  The EPI was half the price of the Charvel when new, but the better guitar.

I gave my daughter the SG in the first pic.  I bought a new Standard several years ago.

I know I posted this in the first post already but I’ve been playing a bunch of Zeppelin on it tonight and just love it so much. Easily my favorite guitar I own. Happy Flame Top Friday!!!

The smokehouse Les Paul Studio was my first venture into the LP world. With a JB in the bridge this thing does legit metal tones but the D shaped neck really never felt right. Then the '59 came out. Apparently it's true, chubby girls do cuddle better. The fat '59 neck is so comfortable and fast and this thing sounds awesome. The Burstbucker 3 in the bridge isn't exactly a JB but it's pretty solid, but the Burstbucker 2 in the neck is glorious. The top is a proper maple cap with a veneer but it is quite nice looking.
Overall the studio is a good guitar but the '59 is a flat out killer guitar. I call this one "The Metal Lemon."

Nice. I have burstbuckers in the guitar I posted above and in the first post. I absolutely love those pickups for anything from the mid 60’s to the 80’s. Absolutely amazing pickups for that tone. I have a JB in an Ibanez S series and that’s an amazing pickup for that heavier late 80’s early 90’s metal tone. One of my favorite pickups for pinch harmonics and still maintains a really tight sound.

Well that’s a very subjective question I think. You can get a “decent” guitar for $500 or less but not all $500 guitars are “as decent” as others so it quite well depends on what decent actually means to you individually. If I were looking right now for a decent starter or mid range guitar that can also grow with me I would expect a budget of $600 to $1200 and go from there. I know that’s a wide range but then again so is quality amongst brands.

I have had plenty of really cheap guitars over the years too and some of them play and sound good but most seem to just be frustrating to deal with for very long.

Whatever you get, I would budget in a proper setup. Even the best guitars play and sound like shit without one.

How cheap do you need to get?

My LP Studio above retails at $550, I paid $325 used. It's awesome at that price. The lemon burst is $999 new, I paid $750. Outstanding guitar.

I can find used epiphones all day under $500. The Inspired by Gibson line made after 2020 are all good instruments.

I don't have the actual pictures handy, but I've got an Epiphone Custom Blackback Pro model like this one.  One of my favorite looking guitars.

Well since other folks are including their Epiphones, here is my loaner/shop guitar that I use when a buddy's kid wants to try guitar, and it lives in the office at my shop for noodling on my coffee breaks or after hours.  It is a 2000-ish MIJ unit with the cheesy fotoflame on it.



I've got Rio Grande pickups in it and just did a fret level and dress on it.  Plays great, but the wood used for it make it quite bright and not super articulate so not exactly my favorite.

Yes, non-Gibson Les Paul’s are fine. Just no outright Chibson counterfeits like the ones coming in the country with Gibson on the headstock.

Looking forward to your thoughts on it.  The control layout should suit my wild strumming hand; thus I may want to pick one up should you be fond of it.

I’ll post a NGD thread after I get it and set it up and play it some. I’m a fan of Jared James Nichols and have wanted this guitar since it first came out so I have high hopes but we shall see.

Volume and tone knobs do wonders for squeezing tones out of a P-90.

Meh.  If I'm going to play a single coil I'm going to play a Tele or Strat.  To me the move to the PAFs is what made the LP shine over its lighter, more ergonomic counterparts.

To each their own. I have all four Strat’s, Tele’s, Humbucker equipped and P90 equipped Les Paul’s and each one brings something different to the table. A P90 has its own unique sound compared to a Strat or Tele pickup though.

Oh, for sure.  I run Rio Grande pickups in everything so for me I'll run a Muy Grande instead of something like a P90 and get a ton more cut, punch, and body.  So far it looks like Steamboat is upholding Dave's legacy which is great.

My les paul is a Hohner clone.  Arch top, binding, and fancy gold hardware and pickups.

Supposedly these were made in the 70s-80s in japan.  Gibson sued hohner and made them stop.  My serial number dates this one 1975.

This one is.  Its definitely got that les paul weight to it.  Half of GD would bitch about the weight and struggle to tote it on a 10 mile march.  Its from a time when men were men and children smoked cigarettes.

The second one is interesting but I don't care for it. The neck is chunkier and doesn't fit my hand well. So it is for sale and I have not ever really played it.

That’s the one I’m talking about, the third one. It looks like a cross between a Les Paul and the Marty Friedman signature Jackson. It’s cool looking.

Thank you. It's just a cheap Amazon Leo Jaymz LP clone that I gutted all the electronics out of and installed some Epiphone electronics from an Epi Custom that had a broken neck. I also installed a roller nut and a roller bridge to work with the Les Trem II to prevent binding. It worked like a champ and it maintains tuning wonderfully. The paint on the guitar is called SunBurst and I chose it because it looked like a classic paint scheme. All in I have less than $300 in it. It plays as well as a buddies Gibson to be honest.

A counterfeit is one that is trying to deceive you as to its origins. This guitar is clearly labeled as such and no deception involved. It is no different than the Hohner posted or any Epiphone. Yet, if you are offended I will remove it.

Yeah I get it. My intent on these posts is to celebrate all guitars. I have been in the position before where all I could afford was a cheap copy and it got me by and filled a void that Gibson doesn’t even compete in. Some people have different priorities as well and dropping a few grand on a guitar isn’t always in the cards. Counterfeits are a totally different thing though. They take money out of American businesses and pockets and destroys the collectors market.

Very cool! Do you have vintage PAF’s in that conversion? I really want to get one, but a 50’s jr or special is probably closer to my budget range.

Also right there with you on taking a lifetime. I’ve played since I was eight years old with some off and on times, but I only really started to actually “learn” to play in the last couple years.

It does take awareness to learn how to play music properly - recording did it for me.
When you start recording yourself, you learn how you truly suck - and go from there.

Constant exam.

No original PAFs. I've been into this game for decades, had several pairs (since the 1990s, when my search truly began).
My small company makes the actual replicas I have in those Les Pauls - you know, with replica PAFs and in general replica hum buckers being so popular nowadays

Yeah I record myself a lot for practice and you’re totally right. All kinds of things pop up I never realized before.

What brand name is your company? I have unpotted burstbucker 1 & 2’s in my main guitar and some custom wound Lindy Fralin’s in another and like both of those a lot. Also have others, but those stand out.
