lolo_guitar Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 hello i prefer the les paul dc pro or lite or dc standard because it seems it is easy to play but i read some comments: the sound would be not as warm /fat as the standard because of this particular axcess to the highest frets? i don't know if you have a les paul double cut, tell us ! i am talking about THE LES PAUL STANDARD DC OR DC PRO OR LITE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabs Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Yeah I have a DC Special with P90s... Never tried a DC Standard but id really like too... And yes the playability is what makes (IMO) the DC one of the best Les Paul designs there is.. Like an SG you can get right up there no issue... As for sound.. Well as I say I have a Special which is a slab guitar with no maple top but I think it sounds great, its quite a dark roaring guitar... A DC Standard will pretty much be in the same ball park as a Single Cut LP... Obviously there will be slight differences but there are between all guitars.. Nothing that cant be fixed with some EQ tweaks or a pedal or two... but it will still sound like a good Gibson should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lolo_guitar Posted June 10, 2015 Author Share Posted June 10, 2015 if Gibson does not make a new DC i think that the best Les paul Standard is the double cut and 24 FRET !!! so, an old and used one the sound / the playability :) hard choice after, we can add a new floyd rose if we want :)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Searcy Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 The 1997 24 Fret DC Studio I had sounded great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
