Guitar God Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 (edited) Ending up parting ways with my 1982 Gibson Les Paul Custom over the weekend. I always gravitated towards my Standards more. The owner I got it from missed it all these years, so I sold it back to him and ended up getting a beautiful 2001 tobacco burst Gibson Les Paul Standard that I found on Reverb. I've been wanting a tobacco burst Les Paul since I started playing. Bit of a win/win. Previous owner got his old guitar back and I got to get one I've wanted for years. And on the pickup review. I got that Seymour Duncan Quarter Pound pickup and Puretone jack installed in my Fender Precision Bass. I really like it a lot! Better than the stock pickup. Compared to the stock pickup, the Duncan is louder, fuller, and punchier. Guess you can also say on the warm side, too. https://i.imgur.com/DwppU6M.jpg Edited April 24, 2022 by Guitar God 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guitar God Posted April 29, 2022 Author Share Posted April 29, 2022 Here's a better pic of the Standard. I also got this strap for it, too. Plan on installing some Dunlop strap locks and putting this strap with it. Had to do a lightning bolt strap. 😋 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mihcmac Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Nothing like a great strap to help make a LP Standard more comfortable to hold up. Enjoy.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
