• 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!

Many of you will recall that I posted a thread a few weeks back about Greg Koch's refinned 54 Les Paul that was a sibling to mine.

Well anyway...fast forward to today. About two hours ago, I asked Greg if he'd record his Paul for us, and low and behold....look what showed up in my inbox.

Greg is an incredibly nice guy, and an unbelievably good guitar player. This thing has tone for days....enjoy!!!

Really nice guy too! I met him at the GC in Hollyweird around 2008 where he was demoing something(Fender I think) and then ran into him in Frankfurt Musikmesse in 2009 and he remembered me. everytime I've run into him has been really nice (& funny) moments.

He is such an awsome muisican and a witty mohambee to boot! I would have loved to have met him. Probably piss my pants from amazement or laughter!

I love red Les Pauls and this shows yet again why I find Fender amplifiers such a good match.
