Beautiful. I wish I could get along with Les Pauls. I like how certain ones look, I just can't stand how they feel.
good score.

Nice guitar!
Personally I'd get rid of the pickguard to make it 10x sexier.

The great prices you lucky Americans get make me weep sometimes. Nice guitar, very nice indeed.

You got that for €1,139, I would have had to pay at least €2000 for it here. Maybe it's worth it paying import duty...
