Its not a counterfeit, its a hand made custom model……I like it better than my old gibson but I need the money so i’m selling it.

This would probably do well on the My Les Paul forum classifieds. You may want to consider joining and posting it there…it’s free.

Gibson Les Paul Classic Plus Vintage Sunburst - Quick Look @ Nevada Music UK

By: admin
Published: February 2nd, 2012

Here… http://www.nevadamusic.co.uk/guitar/electric/gibson-les-paul-classic-plus-vsb Utter the phrase “Les Paul Standard” and most players will bring a clear visual and sonic image instantly to mind. For the rockers among us, chances are that this vision will embody the Les Paul Classic Plus from Gibson USA, a powerful embodiment of a legendary guitar that looks every lick as good as it sounds. Crafted from premium tonewoods, the Les Paul Classic Plus carries a highly figured Grade-AA maple top, which looks absolutely stunning beneath your choice of Vintage Sunburst, Heritage Cherry Sunburst, Trans Ebony Burst or Manhattan Midnight finish, all in high-gloss, hand-sprayed nitrocellulose lacquer. Classic Les Paul Standard appointments such as acrylic trapezoid fingerboard inlays and cream body and neck binding are accompanied by a deceptively powerful pair of humbucking pickups mounted “open-coil” for a modified look that sits great with the guitar’s lack of pickguard, which also serves to show off the Les Paul Classic Plus’s gorgeous wood. And, to top it all off, players can choose their preference of rounded ’50s or slim ’60s neck profile.

As with the best Les Pauls crafted since the early ’50s, the Les Paul Classic Plus starts with the legendary tonewood pairing of a solid carved Grade-AA maple top glued to a Grade-A mahogany body, strategically chambered to enhance resonance and reduce weight. Marrying maple’s clarity and definition to mahogany’s richness and depth produces a tonal complexity that no single-wood guitar has ever matched. Its resonance and sustain are only further enhanced by the deep-set quarter-sawn mahogany neck with 17-degree back-angled headstock. Optimum playability is ensured by your choice of rounded ’50s or slim ’60s neck profile and a 12-inch fingerboard radius for choke-free string bending. The guitar’s 22-fret fingerboard is made from baked maple, a heat-treated hardwood that offers a clear tone and extreme durability.

To pump up all this tonal goodness to the max, Gibson loads the Les Paul Classic Plus with a pair of its hottest humbucking pickups. The 496R in the neck position is wound with 42-AWG wire like a traditional PAF for rich, warm, vocal-like tones, but carries a ceramic magnet for enhanced punch and clarity. The 500T in the bridge pickup is a more formidable beast altogether, wound with finer 43-AWG wire to pack the coils to the max and built with a ceramic magnet for scorching leads, endless sustain and willing feedback. A pairing of Tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece ensures solid sustain and accurate intonation, while a set of vintage-style TonePros™ tuners with pearloid buttons looks great and makes tune-up a breeze.

Should I get the Epiphone Les Paul Special SC Limited or the Fender Squier Vintage Mod. Strat SSS?

By: admin
Published: January 24th, 2012

I’m about to get my first electric guitar and I don’t know which one to choose. I generally like the looks of a Les Paul better, but the Strat comes with a third pick-up and a ‘whammy-bar’. but that’s not really important, what matters most is off course the sound. Although it’s my first guitar, I don’t want to buy a piece of garbage. does anyone has got experience with either of those guitars? I want to play Rock genrally ( Zeppelin, Nirvana, etc.)

here’s some more info about the Epiphone (http://www.musicstore.com/en_EN/EUR/Guitars/Electric-guitars/Epiphone-Les-Paul-Special-SC-Limited-CH-Cherry-True-Vintage/art-GIT0017661-000) and the Squier (http://www.musicstore.com/en_EN/EUR/Guitars/Electric-guitars/Fender-Squier-Vintage-Mod.-Strat-SSS-3-Tone-Sunburst/art-GIT0010297-000)

Thanks a lot!
I forgot, the Epiphone is off course cheaper.

Get the Fender. I have been playing Fender guitars for over 50 years and have never been dissatisfied with the sound.

No3 Shoot out: Celestion Greenbacks vs Vintage 30’s with a Marshall AFD100 and 1960 Les Paul

By: admin
Published: January 12th, 2012

Marshall 1960ahw vs 1960av! Here’s two cabs and powered from a Marshall afd100 and a Gibson Les Paul 1960 reissue. I’ve got an A/B switch running from the head to each cab. the 1960ahw has the G12H 30 while the 1960av has the vintage 30’s (or the G12 V30 as celestion call them) I generally play a phrase or section through the Greenbacks then the v30’s calling out as I go. visually the ahw is so much more handsome with the salt and pepper weave, small logo and no rubber corners - very classy.

Sonically the greenbacks are slightly louder, brighter, distort more but it sounds a little harsh - very bluesbreakers. perhaps slightly fuzzy a real raucous rock sound. With clean it’s really awesome… esp with a Strat
The V30’s are smoother, more laidback, distant thunder if you will…

I think I’m justslightly leaning towards the V30’s…. let me know what you think

ps. it’s just recorded on a little sony digi camera. The attenuator was on the afd 100 though so I was kicking out about 3 watts (or 85-90 dB). setting on the amp were most things on 5-6

pps yes I know my playing is shocking, not played in a longer time and didn’t work out what to play at all. I’m not good by any means, but I’m better than I am here!
