• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

I didn't really need another Les Paul, but I thought it looked great......and it feels amazingly good playing it. :dude:

That's purty...

I'm in the Traditional club (a 2010 in desert burst), and I love mine, too.

LOVE the flame!:salude
But...no offense to you at all, hate the "rim burst" (love the color though) ...very un Gibson and quite Epiphone/Fenderish ..a classic teardrop sunburst is iconic to the brand IMHO.

I agree that it is a "flaw". It doesn't show in the picture, but the flame is also on the other side. :salude

I think my Traditional sounds better than my lemon burst R8.
Is that even possible?

Of course it is. With all the cork-sniffing about, you'd think that there was a magical mojo forest where only the R's are made. Or the name on the sticker somehow imparted magical tonal qualities to the magnetic guts.

Play it. Love it. Make sweet music with it. It may not have had the pricetag or a special stamp on the headstock, but it looks great and (the biggest key) it sounds good to you!
