rdclmn7 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I've always liked the look of the original Les Paul. There's no denying its jazz roots with its arched solid top. I wish that a proto version would come out with a tailpiece that extends to the end of the body, sure, its not for everyone, but I would like to see it someday.

Yeah, ask Santa ... wish list LP: a studio with bone nut, standard bridge, grover metal tuners, and pio caps such as, bumblebees. Oh yeah and no pcb, hardwired!

blueslespaultone Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 That bridge is hard to intonate though, and IMHO hard to string up. I would rather go for one with a bigsby. I've always wondered does the bigsby offer a little more sustain, or change the tone other than mechanical tremolo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
