Toogy Posted December 25, 2008 Posted December 25, 2008 After staring at the box for two weeks all wrapped up and under the tree........ I finally got to touch my Les Paul!!! Wow! it's awesome!! I love it! It's a 2008 Standard Faded in Honeyburst finish. Here are a few pics of me touching it for the first time! Here is a pic of it on the wall beside it's new brother! They look pretty good together don't they? :dude:
Guitar slinger Posted December 25, 2008 Posted December 25, 2008 It looks amazing, man! Congratulations!!!!
SilverLesterStd Posted December 25, 2008 Posted December 25, 2008 Sweet axe Toogulator! Congrats! What a sweet lady to help you get hooked on Gibson wood! What are you plugging her in to? The guitar I mean... The guitar!

kubog Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 congrats that was a fantastic Christmas present! No doubt!
Thundergod Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 Congratulations Great looking guitar, dont know how you managed to leave her untouched... I would have been over her everytime I was alone at home... (eventually leaving the box under the tree and secretly keeping the guitar)... :) A piece of advice... I see you are haning her on the wall... beware of the hanger thing damaging your guitar's finish.
HankCole Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 You must be doing something right. Congrats.
RobG Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 Very nice! Not sure how you managed to go 2 weeks knowing she was just sitting there? Good on you!
Toogy Posted December 26, 2008 Author Posted December 26, 2008 A piece of advice... I see you are haning her on the wall... beware of the hanger thing damaging your guitar's finish. I thought it was only rubber that I had to worry about? these hangers have foam on them? Should I wrap them in something?
Toogy Posted December 26, 2008 Author Posted December 26, 2008 Sweet axe Toogulator! Congrats! What a sweet lady to help you get hooked on Gibson wood! :) What are you plugging her in to? The guitar I mean... The guitar! I currently just have an old Fender Performer 1000 Hybrid Tube Amp. It has a tube in the pre-amp section, it sounds ok, but nothing like a real tube amp. I plan to get something else in the near future.
Thundergod Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 I thought it was only rubber that I had to worry about? these hangers have foam on them? Should I wrap them in something? I think so, unless the product was detailed as "nitro friendly" or something of the like... Those wall hanging devices will damage even non nitro finishes if over-used... I learned that the hard way (by damaging a friends guitar :) ). I think it will be safer to wrap them up, I keep most of my guitars in their cases so I couldnt tell you what to use (maybe cotton?), AXE does this to his stands so maybe he can help you with what to use and what not to.
deepblue Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 A sweet gift my friend....shes gorgeous. Enjoy!
Rikard Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 By the way you look at it one can tell you like it alot, and that is not hard to understand since it's a beauty - congrats Toogy!
