I picked up two Les Paul Custom Shop R0s, a faded cherry burst '05 in very good shape and a darker cherry burst (does anyone know the real name of these colors) '14 in almost mint condition. I'm only going to keep one. I'm jamming with my classic rock band this coming Saturday at which point I'll get to hear both guitars at full volume but up until now I haven't done much more than play them through my old Pod 2.0. They both sound great - I can't tell the difference between Burstbuckers and Custombuckers through the Pod.
I know which top and color are 'better' is going to be purely personal preference, and so far the guitars feel virtually the same to play. My question is given the difference in specs between '05 and '14 which guitar would you hold on to? This is going to be the last Les Paul and maybe guitar (yeah, right!) I ever buy - it's going to be the stablemate for my '08 ebony Custom Reissue - so I don't want to regret too much letting one of these guitars go.
Thanks!
