ChristianS Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Over the years I've heard the Les Paul 'smell', when you open the case, described as 'chicory-coffee', 'vanilla' and even 'marshmallows'. Has anyone got any more flavours to add? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobB Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I heard about a guy who left his case sitting open and his cat used the case for a litter box. I'm sure he wished his case smelled like vanilla. Bad kitty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocknroller Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Mine smelled like vanilla last week when I bought it, until I played my first gig with it Friday night. Now it smells like beer. Shock Top Belgin White to be precise!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rogerb Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Nitro has a great sweet smell, I guess similar to vanilla or maybe pralines and cream! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesguitar65 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Nitro has a great sweet smell, I guess similar to vanilla or maybe pralines and cream! I guess that is one of the reasons they've outlawed spraying nitro in some states as many would consntantly be sniffing them [flapper] Is it a coincidence why the number one selling bath cream at Victoria's Secret is "vanilla" scent?

Thermionik Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Wow. now that guitar has mojo. I can smell the places you have been with that axe over the years [flapper] I bet she sings like an angel. Wish that was the case..... but all that was another player in another place. He's gone on now, and I am just playing her 'till it's my turn to pass her on once again. But yeah - 60 years working is there in the sweet smell and smooth feel of her.
