EvanPC Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 A while back, I decided to attempt to compile the general specifications of Gibson's standard production line of Les Pauls. I know I'm not alone when I say that keeping track of the differences between models is a lost cause, so I put this together to try and help myself, as well as anyone else who could use it. I originally posted the first version of this on mylespaul.com (and maybe here too). Thanks to some responders who brought some things to my attention, I made some revisions to it but this time, I've also added additional models, including Gibson SG models. Screenshots below (they're blurry but only because they're images - actual PDF file is clean): Original list screenshot - Some revisions/corrections made New additions to the Les Paul models SG Models I decided to add the following LP models: - Les Paul Traditional With Bigsby - Les Paul Deluxe - Les Paul Melody Maker - Les Paul Junior As for SG's, the following models are listed: - 61 Reissue - SG Standard - SG Special Limited - SG Special - SG Classic Faded I had myself set up to begin compiling the ES Series models (a real enigma to me), but the specs for these guitars are not as easily available on the Gibson website, if at all. It will have to wait. This link - Dropbox link to downloadable PDF file - will take you to Dropbox.com, directly to the file location and it can be downloaded. It is in PDF format and should print nicely on standard letter sized paper. Please feel free to let me know of mistakes or issues in this compilation and I will get them corrected/fixed. Like last time, I've also posted this on MLP.com, so sorry for the redundancy if you happen to frequent both forums. Thanks
retrosurfer1959 Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Cool list and looks pretty complete thanks for making and uploading that.
mcmurray Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Pics are a bit on the small side mate. Could you post larger pics? edit: nevermind I found the pdf.
EvanPC Posted December 22, 2011 Author Posted December 22, 2011 I will be adding the new-ish LP Classic Custom and Classic Plus to this list. Are there any other models folks may appreciate having listed here? I'm trying to stay away from signatures and exclusives, but some are so popular it's hard not to include them...Same goes for SG's as well. Thanks
EvanPC Posted December 22, 2011 Author Posted December 22, 2011 Very cool stuff, thanks for the effort it took to make this pdf.... Thanks. To clarify, all the effort was in Excel...pdf-ing it was the easy part! Also, if you miss the link in the first post, my sig contains the link to the pdf version of the file. On the other hand, if anyone would like this but would prefer to receive it via email, shoot me a PM and I'll send it to you.
EvanPC Posted December 22, 2011 Author Posted December 22, 2011 Just looked at the pdf, no Classic Custom yet or did I over look it? Thats what I posted earlier...that I will soon be adding them. To be honest, I wasnt aware of them until recently... So while Im at it, I was wondering if anyone had suggestions of additonal models to include.
Duende Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 This would be a great 'sticky' to have on the forums so people could see what each Les Paul entails Matt
Jeff-7 Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 This would be a great 'sticky' to have on the forums so people could see what each Les Paul entails Matt Good idea, I'd request it to sticky over in the LP forum but they don't have that little function on these boards that I've seen.
EvanPC Posted January 5, 2012 Author Posted January 5, 2012 Updated with Les Paul Classic Plus and Les Paul Classic Custom. Link to printable pdf below, or in my sig: http://db.tt/9LGjah32 Thanks
