Kay's brother plays guitar and recent got a very nice gretsch electromatic ala Brian setzer style.
His parents brought him a vintage (brand) les Paul goldtop. He stopped using it as the bridge pickup stopped working. It's been in the care since. I asked him about it and he said that if i fix it, it's mine.
All that was needed was some switch cleaner in the pots and we're in business.
It's a bolt-on, unlike my epiphone I used to have.
It sounds amazing and plays really really good, just spent about an hour playing stuff I wouldn't normally. Bit of oasis and who coming out.
Makes me wish I kept the epiphone now.

Nice! The Vintage LP I had off you and the other one (black) I have played, were both excellent and easy players. Love the necks on them (glued in ones)

Vintage is nice gear. There was a place in town that used to carry them. I understand calling the company VIntage, but is a shit name for having to google in the intertubes.

I tried to say that seriously and nearly got away with it too. At 27 I'm still probably a lad to you guys but ive got my own relativism. Have to tread my own path you know

The self proclaimed worst guitarists Thin Lizzy ever had... so he'd know a bit about how a good les Paul sounds
