I ADDED SOME MODS ON MY 2015 TRADITIONAL!

New on the way. And I bought Seymour Duncan Antiquity pickup set, amber swich tip, historic switchwasher and truss rod cover, etc... Very exciting... Needless to say: top wrapping saves life :hee Cheers :salude:salude:salude

The replacement of the Les Paul Model logo can be done with not a lot of trouble. I have done a 2015 Les Paul junior as well as a 2017 Les Paul Traditional with excellent results. See the thread regarding my 2017 Traditional. If you decide to go ahead and want more specific details, let me know and I will be glad to help you.

Hi guys,

I like what you have done.
I'm thinking of doing the same, to buy a 2015 Traditional and mod it to my liking.

I want to know something - The real reason why I want to mod it, is is my interest in the wider 1.795" (45.5mm) nut-width.
I have big hands and found the usual nut width just ever so slightly cramped.
With the wider nut width, is it possible to use is with a slightly wider string spacing as found on the usual nut width of 1.695" (43mm)?

Cheers!

You have to source a complete aftermarket replacement or fabricate a wider, thicker nut as the stock assembly has a fixed string spread the same as the narrower nut.
