  1. Hello, I bought a new Gibson Les Paul Traditional Pro II from Guitar Center over the weekend and I am concerned about a couple of things. 1) With the toggle switch in the middle position, turning down the bridge pickup to 0 causes all sound to stop. The inverse is true as well. With the toggle switch in the middle position, turning down the neck pickup volume to 0 causes the guitar to go silent. This doesn't seem like normal behavior to me. I would expect that turning down the bridge pickup down to 0 while leaving the neck pickup at 10 would still result in sound coming from the amp. Is this correct, or is it wired incorrectly. 2) I am also getting a hum from the guitar when the volume is up, but not touching any metal like the strings, bridge, toggle switch or other metal object. This hum is very much like a single coil type hum and I was a little taken back when I heard it on a $2000 Gibson with humbuckers. This hum is occurring when the 10 db boost is off along with the single coil option turned off. Please let me know if these issues are normal for this guitar or if there may be other issues going on. Thanks in advance. Allen
