NighthawkChris Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Hi all, making this post to share my latest acquisition here. I had to sell a few things to get myself some funds towards this bad boy and I am really happy that I did. I have to say that hands down, this is the nicest playing and sounding guitar I have ever played... I've heard people saying that CS Gibson R9s are definitely an expensive investment, but they also claimed that they are well worth every penny. Love the soft VOS finish on it, the aged HW, Custombucker tone... And the top speaks for itself. Anyhow, glad to share my pics here. Enjoy!
Navy Vet. Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Having never owned a Custom Shop my opinion is somewhat limited. But I will say this. I believe a Custom Shop Les Paul is the finest guitar money can buy-period. If I owned that guitar I would be on cloud nine. Enjoy it my friend.
Black Dog Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Very, very nice! I know you've been more of a Custom guy, and Customs are great, but ya gotta have a burst! Nice work.
merciful-evans Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 That'll sure coax you to play. Heartiest congrats sir!
kidblast Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Jumpin Jaysus!!! I may have just soiled myself.....
kelly campbell Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Very sweet...I agree the Gibson paul from the custom shop...beautiful ! Enjoy yourself.
Rabs Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Wow... That is frikken SWEEEEET, love that VOS finish too... Enjoy

Awesome guitar Chris!....and hey, that extra space in the left side of your pants will probably be welcomed in the heat of summer. rock on!
Twang Gang Posted August 7, 2019 Posted August 7, 2019 Oooooooo - that's a beauty. Congratulations and enjoy playing that!!
pauloqs Posted August 8, 2019 Posted August 8, 2019 Gibson Custom is just at a totally different level. Once you play one it’s very easy to get spoiled and very picky with guitars.
BigKahune Posted August 8, 2019 Posted August 8, 2019 Gorgeous CS LP. Stunning burst and flame. Congrats. 😎
Dub-T-123 Posted August 8, 2019 Posted August 8, 2019 That thing looks ridiculously nice. Congrats! Love the way the grain kinda goes the opposite direction of the waist. It kinda exaggerates the grain and body shape at the same time.
bobouz Posted August 9, 2019 Posted August 9, 2019 Don't know if I've ever seen a sweeter looking top on an LP. Simply gorgeous!
