• 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 love it, definitely a cooler, if less traditional, look...very Slash-y. :) Damn, now I'm tempted to go naked again with my R7...

I guess I'm partial to that old "classic" look. it's nice to see that top in all it's glory, but I like the covers and pickguard.

Very cool look! My friend has an R6 with the pickguard & switch ring removed. A very nice look!

I'm with you, Goldtops (and most Les Pauls) should be covered and guarded.

But...........

I have to admit, lately I've been considering the advantage (for me) of removing the guard so that my pinky has more pup ring to anchor onto. Don't like the look, but function may outweigh form.
