Hope everyone is well!
Picked up a Les Paul Standard earlier this week, born January 6, 2002.
I purchased this guitar new in 2002 and sold it in 2007 for an R9 to an old neighbour. The following year our house was broken into and all of my guitars were stolen, but this one was "saved".
Now that I have moved back home after living in two different countries, I asked the former owner if he'd be willing to sell it to me & he agreed! He had hardly played it and it was like an old friend and time capsule, as it had my name written in the pickup cavity. Its a 60's neck profile and I had the neck sanded down for a satin finish back in the day. I threw in some new pickups and now its in the shop for a re-fret.
Plays and sounds great and is surprisingly as light as my aged & signed Frehley Burst.
Still has my old Kiss sticker on it too :dude:
Cheers!
