• 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!

Great pics. I was there too, picked up a copy of the 3rd book and held a couple of the bursts too. Totally made my day.

Cool guitars...looks like fun.

What are the thoughts on that hole on the refin '59? Unusual place.

Wow, beautiful guitars! I was also impressed with ourmaninthenorth's ability to hold 2 bursts out in that position. :yah

Now, if they were Norlin's….:hmm

I’ve been told the guitar is 100% and it’s not for sale:(
If anyone in Europe has one available please let me know👍

Thanks for the info. Not in the market-just couldn;t tell from the first pic. Looked so clean! :dude:
