bullet22 Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 So I'm lookin for a new Lester. I've been looking at so many bursts they're not making sense anymore - bursts I thought I loved I'm now doubting, and those I've never liked before are starting to look real nice. This is burst blindness. Anyone had it? How do I cure it and get back to the business of picking a new toy? :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deepblue Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 The more you look the less you see scenario.... I know it well my friend. No two are the same. Go for tone first, looks second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibson4life Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 I've had this scenario as well........but like deepblue said go for tone first, then looks. Actually with my lastest aquisition (Studio Deluxe) I bought it mainly on it's sound. I played everything from the JP #2 ;) (Which was my second choice) to the Melody Maker........I had a $3000 budget and to me the Deluxe just sounded better......and I was also able to buy a big Carvin amp too. So......like I was saying, listen to the people on these forums, they don't lie and give you great advice. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 If you're buying one off the internet, just post pics of it here and ask for opinions...or PM ask me. I'll be honest, or brutally honest...your choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 As has been mentioned before; Close your eyes and open your ears. You'll end up with what you know was the best guitar and you will grow to love it no matter what the finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic LP Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I'm afraid that's a Gibson Les Paul thing, they are so desirable. I have two Les Paul and looking for a third one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
