• 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!

Over the past five years, Burst aficionado and vintage Gibson addict Vic DaPra has commissioned Gibson to do a limited run of 25 Les Pauls that are made to his specifications. He also has been honored with a Collector's Choice edition guitar. All of them have colors and COAs that are named after Vic1

Some of you may know that besides a collector and owner of Guitar Gallery, what some of you may not know is that Vic is also an unbelievably talented guitarist and vocalist.

Since I am a Les Paul addict and Vic DaPra devotee, the photo below depicts the DaPra special run guitars. They are all incredibly cool Les Pauls, and play and sound as good as they look!

From left to right: DaPra Bourbon Fade, DaPra Caramel Fade, DaPra Shadows of '59, Vic's "Old School '59", and Collector's Choice "Believer Burst":

Charlie already posted the November Burst of the Month, and since I'm always trying to catch up to him, that's why I released just before Halloween! :)

I always like the group shots. Good for contrasting the different shades against each other.
