New member and new Les Paul Std. plus top in Honeyburst

[RobinOttawa]

I know it's not an Epi, but I thought I'd share a pic of the Gibby LP i was mentioning I refinished. It started life a a faded Std Honeyburst, but it was really amateur hour with the application of the finish. Citrus yellow center with shoe polish brown dabbed on for the burst. However it had a nice top and the price was right, so I thought I'd give a go at a nitro refinish.

Hope you dig it. I ended up trading it for a Rickenbacker. Ricks are tough to get and I realized deep down that I think I prefer a well done Honeyburst in the end rather then the faded burst I changed it to.

 

It started as this (this pic is the most flattering of them all- not a good HB in my opinion):

 

And ended up like this (Faded Burst):
