Nice... Cool video, always informative (unlike some youtube vids we could mention ;)) I have one of those too (as you probably know) a 2005 as well... I think they are amazing guitars.. well underrated as far as im concerned... Its the one that nearly always gets picked up when my guitar playing friends come over due to the awesome necks on them [thumbup]

 

The one I got was cheap and I had to re-finish the top.. But one mod that was made to it that I think REALLY suits it is the multi-ply pickguard.. I think it makes it look well snazzy :)

Oh and you know how you were really rockin out when the distortion was on.. mine makes me play like that too.. I like the dark sound they have.. They are just so much fun to play

Thanks, Karloff...you should! You won't regret it! [thumbup]

 

I have 2 other "double cuts" as well. They were Gibson designated

"Les Paul Junior Lite" at the time.

I (obviously) "trick them out," to my own preferences, with the TP6 tailpieces, Tulip

tuners, and Gold Hardware, on the Black one!

 

But, they're ALL fun to play! [thumbup][biggrin]

interesting

 

I normally don't really like the "small" trapezoid inlays.......I like either the full ones or blocks or dots.

 

On those DC Jr's, those inlays look awesome!

 

I think because it is an understated/simple guitar, they dress it up without being overdone......very cool looking!

Thanks, they're both over 12 years old, now. [biggrin]
