clarkuss Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 I didn't really want a Les Paul but an elite/elitist at £400 ($580-600) I couldn't turn it down. If anyone wants a Les Paul Custom in Wine Red the same chap is selling one for £380! Item # 190294928869 I'll see how I get on when it arrives. Great studio guitar either way!
matiac Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 Studio? I wouldn't be in the least bit ashamed to play out with that guitar...she's a beaut!
clarkuss Posted March 19, 2009 Author Posted March 19, 2009 No it's not that. Lovely guitar. just the weight distribution, humbuckers, solidbody etc. I couldn't see myself playing anything but my casino live!
midiman56 Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 Make sure you give her a proper try-out, clarkuss. LP's are such beautifully balanced guitars weight-wize. You may be surprised at how comfortable they can be with a wider strap. Remember ... that extra weight translates into tone and sustain! Nice find! Jim
sexygibson Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 Great deal ! That is one of the older Elite models also. You really got a good find there.
pohatu771 Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 For 380 quid, I'm very tempted to buy the wine red... but I can't. Well, I shouldn't. I have the money, but it should remain exactly where it is, especially since I still have to finish paying for the Melody Maker... which no one else knows about yet.
mgrmatt Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 You've got a winner, especially at that price! Congrats!!! mgm
clarkuss Posted March 20, 2009 Author Posted March 20, 2009 Cheers lads. I'll let you know how it is when it arrives. That wine red one has gone now, unsurprisingly!
duane v Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Always have dug that darker burst finish... It has an early 70's vibe to it.... Nice AXE btw=d>
