Pulled out my 1952 Gibson Les Paul today. I bought this ages ago from an antique dealer with original case. With the exception of a few belt buckle scratches on the back, this guitar was barely played and is near mint. Virtually no lacquer checking. It has a small initial “B” on it that I dare not remove- plus it’s the first initial of my wife’s name, so it is perfect! And even though everyone criticizes the early design due to shallow neck angle requiring the strings to be wrapped below the trapeze stop bar, this guitar plays and sounds glorious! In my opinion it’s perfect for rhythm work. Love it!
