tokairic Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Just bought a 2017 Les Paul Standard T in Blueberry Burst. Terrific colour, had to have one, which is why I took a beating on a part ex of my mint Heritage Cherry LP . Playability is good now I've set it up to my preference, My local Gibson dealer was good enough to bring out the five he had in stock so I could pick my favourite top - they vary incredibly from almost plain to vibrant flame. Just wished the acrylic fret markers were pearl like my old one, and they really should have polished them - they were matt and lightly scratched from sanding the fretboard. Although still noticeably less attractive than MOP, they look way better now I have polished them. All in all very satisfied, (I've even almost recovered from the low p/ex allowance) and it looks like Gotoh hardware - anybody know for sure?

I think we're going to need to see this blueberry burst before we can comment.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twang Gang Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Yep, rule is no pics - it didn't happen. Glad you like it. I got one back in January (not blueberry) and it has taken some getting used to the fingerboard, but I love it. I haven't heard of Gibson uses any Gotoh hardware on factory made LPs.

JAF Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Just bought a 2017 Les Paul Standard T in Blueberry Burst. That is a beautiful looking guitar. Picture if we may? =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 "and it looks like Gotoh hardware - anybody know for sure? " I think Gotoh is an OEM who produces similar parts for various guitar companies. I dont know for sure but its possible. Decent product anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
