LPSpecial2000 Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Hello I'm new here and a drummer (sorry). But my son is a guitar player and will be a Gibson Les Paul Special SL player when I give him his x-mas present x-mas morning. I bought a 2000 Les Paul special SL (not the fade) on ebay a little while ago and am happy to say it looks brand new. The guy I bought it from put a Duncan 59 humbucker in the bridge pickup and it has the stock 490 on the neck pickup. He also replaced the tuner pegs with schaller tuners. Anyway...I was wondering if there is any one who owns one and what you think of yours? Also I was wondering why Gibson discontinued selling these? Thank you!!

max2343 Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Hey Newbie, I got one and I love mine. I pulled the Bridge pickup and Installed a 490T and a PA-2 Boost and Installed a Pickgaurd. Don't know why they aren't making them Anymore. Don't know why they do a lot of things that just don't make Sense.
