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!
The Big O's Black Falcon one of the first electric custom guitars. According to his roadmanager it came to be when the neck of his Gretsch white falcon got damaged and was replaced with the neck of a Gibson super 400 before being refinished in black. During the process, they also sprayed over the Gibson logo and replaced the stock Filtertron pickups with Sho-Bud steel guitar pickups.
