Notts1965 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Hi guys I'm new to the forum. I have just purchased a great newLes Paul. See pictures in my opinion it's stunning. This is a 1977 Pro Deluxe with Bigsby. I know I'm going to come under fire from the "anti Norlin brigade". I have owned many Les Paul's over the years and to be honest this little gem jumps right to the top of the pile for me. The stock p90s are great with an outstanding funky spank to them. In addition to this the slinky ebony fretboard is outstanding. The only slight down side is the weight, at just over 12lb it's not a full three hour gig guitar for me, at my age lol😀. In my opinion Norlin got it right with this model that is only my opinion but I love this one to bits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigKahune Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 . Welcome. Â No anti-Norlin here - there are plenty of gems to be found in that era. Â The pic is a bit small, but man - she looks in great shape for a '77. Â Congrats and enjoy. . B) Â Â <edit> BTW, you might want to repost this in the Les Paul subforum. Â Â .

SteveFord Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Gibson made some great guitars under the Norlin regime and it looks like you got one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zentar Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Few will ever own a real classic like that. Congratulations. P 90's and a Bigsby!!! I don't care where you post a guitar like that. We get enough copies in here. That's the real thing. Â Welcome to the forum. Do a review of that entire guitar when you get a chance; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
