Maybe so, but those Goldtops are VERY important to me. Yours is a beaut, and even if not entirely correct per the OP, it is to my mind one of, if not THE ICONIC NORLIN LES PAUL.

I hope you guys understand that my posts are largely tongue-in-cheek. I have a general disdain for that period but I can assure you I know there are good guitars from that era because I have played some.

I thought it was a great idea for a thread. I own a couple Norlins and am never insulted in the slightest when people say they don't like them.

Steve did have a norlin Custom that he played in Humble Pie after he stopped using the Junior w/Dwight Pickguard. Ive seen pictures of Peter with a white Custom being used for slide.

I'm surprised no one has posted a photo of Don Felder and his Gibson EDS 1275. He used it live in the 70's playing Hotel California. If this guitar isn't an iconic Norlin I don't know what is.:note :note

Randy Rhoads rocking the solo to Crazy Train on a '74 Custom. He could really play.

uh, when did RR's LP become a 76? Always thought it was a 74.

veeman, I had bad information. You are correct on this. I have amended my post. Speaking of Vs I was going to post a Michael Schenker pic, but learned that his main 70s V was not a Gibson. That was news to me. Do you if that is true?

Michael's main 70's V was a Gibson. He is now using a copy/signature brand.
