sixstrings Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Gibson Les Paul Standard 2008 heritage cherry sunburst. I've been wanting this guitar for years. Believe me, it was a sacrifice to get it but ooh my Gibson G.A.S. is over! Yeehoo! http://s702.photobucket.com/albums/ww25/sixstringphoto/LP%20Standard%20HCS/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy![/quote'] Thanks bro. I didn't get the most defined top but for $1900 brand new I think it was a steal. I'm still trying to decide if I'm going to drill the pickguard into it or not. Probably because it affects my picking since I used my ring finger to gauge the height of my palm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree by the way, nu-metal isn't metal. Death rules. Long live old-school metal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixstrings Posted February 17, 2009 Author Share Posted February 17, 2009 Judas Preist rules +1Metallica sometimes rules - I hope you're referring to pre Black album Slipknot rules - Didn't they incorporate the rap thing too? If so' date=' they're a modern day Anthrax as far as I'm concerned Iron Maiden rules That's just about it... lmao, nice guitar! [/quote'] Thanks. I took the liberty of revising your post.

:oilpit: Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Thanks. I took the liberty of revising your post. How did I forget Iron Maiden! And yes, I mean Metallica ruled up to the Black Album. I don't like Slipknot's rap/extremely heavy music, the rest of it I love Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Drill!!! Congratulations!! +1 on both words. Personally, I like seeing the screwheads on the scratchplate; makes the top look 'finished'. Looks like it has nice grain on the top. Any chance of more detailed snaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

csbullock Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 "Looks SPAMmy to me".. What's that mean?... As for prices.. Everywhere else my LP sells for $3700, plus about $400 for the gloss finish and I got it for $3200 including shipping, so I think that's a good deal.

csbullock Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 P.S.. ...At least the '59 with the gloss finish is ~$450 more than the '59 with the VOS finish so, I'm assuming the '58 with the gloss finish is also more $$ than the VOS finish....
