• 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!

wow mike , nice red!

long ago I had a rather battered blonde version, which was ice pick bright, and a boat anchor, I think all that maple and maple neck.
are yours unusually bright as well?

Hi Steve,

They are bright, but not over the top, and can be tamed with a twist of the tone knobs. :hank

Congratulations!
They are both stunning, but the Wine Red is breathtaking!

Thanks for sharing the pics.

Congrats on your completist score, never saw the wine red before, and they look good as a pair.

I particularly like the red binding on the wine red finish... it works on both but I kinda dig it more on the wine red.

Enjoy! :salude
