Well it came in this morning and I love this guitar. I like it more than my LP Standard Goldtop. It is beautiful and as I promised here are some pics. [smile]

 

Made a quick 2 minute video using my new LP through my Fender Deluxe III's clean channel using a Zendrive for distortion. [biggrin]

 

 

Another quick little video. [smile]

Thanks Bence. I love the baked maple boards. One is on the SG in one of the pics too.

Very Sweet, VM.

 

I'll be looking out for some soundclips soon!

Thanks Philip. I will have some clips up within a few days. [biggrin] I love these baked maple boards.

Beautiful guitar [thumbup] and your SG looks fantastic too!! [love] What color is it? After looking at Bence's and yous, I may have to sweet talk mama for two more [biggrin] Love those two colors.

As I've said before, my wine red moved my 2008 Standard to #2. Congrats again [thumbup]

Thanks. The SG is a standard in vintage burst with a baked maple board. They are a limited run just like the classic customs. There were 4.... vintage burst, natural burst, aged cherry and cream. I almost bought a natural burst too. [laugh]

Contrats VC she's a beaut! I am wondering what it has that makes it your number 1 over the 08 standard? Is it the PUPs, that new NGD feeling, board or what? [biggrin]

VM, That is one tasty vid [thumbup] very smooth, replayed it a couple times. Copied down all your effects so mine will sound just as good..... but that means you'll have to come to Ohio and play mine [biggrin] Enjoy that sweet sound. [tongue]

Congratulations!!! Like all the other LP Classic Customs other folks have been posting, that is just sweet, Sweet, SWEET!!!! Good to see all the different finishes, too. Enjoy that baby!!! [thumbup] [thumbup] [thumbup]

 

I like the SG too!!! I'm not big on most of the burst finishes, but I like the vintage sunburst (at least I think they call it vintage sunburst) on the SG. It reminds me of the desert burst and tobacco burst finishes on some LP's which I also like.

 

Happy playin' to ya'!!!!

Thanks nitefly. I would say 4 things make me like it better than my standard. I love the baked maple board. I have an SG that has one too and I love them. 2nd would be I like the 57 classic and classic plus over the burstbuckers. They sound a little warmer to me and together with that board it's great. 3rd would be the classic custom is traditional weight relieved where the standard is chambered. I like both but the weight relieved I like a little better. 4th is the custom bells and whistles. I love the triple binding around the headstock with the split diamond and I love the cream color. Yes the 4th reason is purely cosmetic. [laugh] I love both my LP's and I have 2 SG's and both SG's are standards. One is the standard ebony and the other is a standard vintage burst with the baked maple board and I like that over the ebony sg. It sounds punchier and they have the same pups.

Thanks JM2112. I like the vintage burst too. That sg has the baked maple board too. I wouldn't mind having a wine red classic cutom. I have seen those on here and they are nice! [thumbup]

The wine red is the finish I got on my LP Classic Custom. I love all the finishes they chose for this model, and I prefer the solid color finishes over burst finishes. I don't think you could go wrong with any of them. I'm seriously considering a second one. [smile]
