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!
LOL ! don't feel bad ..i'll go downstairs and forget what I went down for ..anyway, Tom I wish member "pioneer" was still around, in his last post from 2004 in the link above he mentioned that his '52 did have a metal jackplate ...would love to see a pic of his to comfirm a match.
