All of them sound good regardless of a fretboard. That’s a hoax. Your sound good is not someone else’s. Not saying it’s gotta be ML to sound good. Any guitarist worth his salt can play a shitty Les Paul and you’ll say you want to sound like that. Your fingers and your picking hand will create the tone you want. It’s a bunch of bs. A guitar is simply a guitar. FR too many laid into it that that’s hwT causes tone. It’s the LEAST amount of the tone pocket. Period. Your hands and the amp has 95% of tone. The other 5% is in regards to the pickups
EVH put a PAF In a shit piece of wood and everyone wanted to sound like him and THEN? He changed the pickup And the necks a few times. Stop worrying about the guitar. It’s bullshit. Guitarists created the fallacy that a 59 is the cats meow. It’s not. It’s a rare guitar so it’s worth a fortune but ain’t no better sound than anything else. You want proof? The most expensive guitar ever sold was an acoustic played by Kurt Cobain. And many Fenders were sold much more than the Les paul. You can play? Or you can’t!
Yea sure…………….prove itLaughable...................
There's nothing wrong with the reissues that a few lessons won't fix.No guarantee these guitars will sound good, and based on past reissues they WON'T............
These will sell out quickly, the non-bigsby ones anyway
I disagree. Look at a neck cross-section. Fretboard is a very significant percentage of total wood. This affects neck rigidity. The frets are seated directly into this slab of wood. I can't imagine this piece of wood does not dramatically impact the sound of a guitar. Easy test is to swap a rosewood fretboard neck on a strat with an all-maple neck.A full neck, yes.
A fretboard, not so much.

Why, what's wrong with Bigsby?
Someday I might want to get a whammy bar, so Bigsby is not a good brand?
Moronic.................Yea sure…………….prove it
That’d be your thought processMoronic.................
I have no beef with the price argument or the brazilian argument.
But the pictures on the website look like a big part of the aging is someone just tapping the top over and over and over with a nail punch. Maybe a couple old guitars look like that but it's not desirable at all and that's coming from someone who loves beat to death instruments. To each their own.
Did you not watch the Tom MUrphy video? 90% of the aging is from a stupid railroad spike. And so they casted the original one like as if it’s some holy grail aging tool. Dumb as shitI have no beef with the price argument or the brazilian argument.
