darling67 Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 I love that "ES" model hollow body Les Paul, in particular.
Jimi Mac Posted May 4, 2014 Posted May 4, 2014 Man that '59 triple humbucker burst reissue just sings!!! If I had the $$ I'd buy it in a heartbeat and I don't even particularly think much of triple humbucker Les Pauls, but that one rocks!!! Dayum!!!

Rabs Posted May 6, 2014 Author Posted May 6, 2014 This is some pretty cool stuff Rabs :) And no transformers in site ;)
Rabs Posted May 6, 2014 Author Posted May 6, 2014 Yes it seems that 2014 is the year that a real guitar will cost you quite a bit or you had better be pretty handy with your tools. Its certainly hard to argue with that.. But DAMN some of those guitars look amazing....
Rabs Posted May 6, 2014 Author Posted May 6, 2014 Bence pointed out that the Peace collection resembled the PRS colors. Yeah well.. I think its probably more about the Hippy connection... OR just an excuse to copy them ;)
