Gibson Lespaul Double Cutaways..mmm.

littleknowitall 12-21-2007 03:48 AM

Gibson les paul black beauty, I'd sell my soul.

Blain 12-21-2007 04:20 PM

I'm not a fan of Les Pauls anymore, they weigh like 10 kg, probably break your back while you're playing.

But anyways, I don't really have a favourite model, any that sounds good.

He had a frankenstrat.. basically he took a bunch of guitars apart and slammed em all together into something beastly then he made that into a line of guitars...

i figured because its like all multi colored and all around amazing.

Michael Anthony has a pretty ****ing nice bass as well. the sound is amazing, especially when he crunks out the bass solos at a live show.

Laces Out Dan! 12-28-2007 07:07 PM

Ive always like Thomas' choice in Guitars. His Double Cutaway Les Paul and the Coral blue SG.

I still like the inexpensive Epiphone SG-400.

MD23 12-31-2007 01:44 PM

My favorites are the strat and tele, though i don't own either yet :(. I play a Yamaha F-325 Acoustic. I love it.

Music Resource 01-01-2008 05:31 AM

Guitars in my collection:

Les Paul Standard (my fav so far)
American Strat
Squier Standard Strat (surpisingly nice for the money)
Ibanez RG-770
Ibanez Destroyer II
Aria Acoustic

I've owned several others in the past. What I need to do is add a V. Any suggestions?

TheCaster 01-02-2008 07:28 AM

jeesus my strat is mexican i think... i dont really find much of a difference sound wise between where they are made... so the squier is actually a decent guitar? felt like crap when i played one...

Yeah, it depends on which Squier you played. The Bullet and the Affinity are trash. The Squier Strat (standard) is quite good, especially for $200. If you ever need a second decent guitar for a low price, consider the Squier Strat (standard).

There are five quality levels of a Fender Strat:

1. American Strat - $800
2. Mexican Strat - $400
3. Squier Strat - $200
4. Squier Affinity - $150
5. Squier Bullet - $100 ($99)

1, 2, and 3 are good to great guitars. 4 and 5 are junk.

TheCaster 01-02-2008 09:49 AM

i cant really find much of a difference between american and mexican strats.... is the american worth the extra 400?

Strap me to the anchor 01-02-2008 01:18 PM

not IMO

Depends who you ask. I can't see any reason to upgrade. Mexican is plenty good.

Mockingbird! 01-04-2008 01:14 PM

MD23 01-05-2008 09:37 AM

Les Paul Studio is probably the guitar he is referring to.

Blain 01-08-2008 04:17 AM

I'm using an Ibanez SZ320EX at the moment and it's goin pretty sweet. Really really really fast guitar, the action is great.

Farfisa 02-10-2008 03:53 PM

TheCaster 02-10-2008 08:29 PM

yes les pauls are great but from epiphone or gibson? the epiphone version has wayyyy better action then the gibson version,but then again the gibson version has better pickups...

TheCaster 02-11-2008 06:56 AM

the gibson one ftw!!

SG's are pretty sexy as well

The problem with gibson guitars is that their quality control and setups are ****ing ****e. I know dealers who've recieved gibsons factory new with the binding falling off the neck and cracked finishes.

Same with fender to an extent.

Although if I was going to buy a guitar right now and had limitless cash, I'd go directly and ONLY for a J custom Ibanez with a ZR.

Halfa 02-11-2008 06:12 PM

hmmm.......i think i'll get an explorer next just for kicks
