Picked this one up a couple weeks ago. I’ve been playing for close to 20 years, and this is the first Les Paul I’ve ever really fallen in love with. The big 50’s neck profile is extremely comfortable, and holy crap do I love these Mini Humbuckers! Even though everyone quotes Spinal Tap when I say it, the sustain is exceptional; it gives the tone a very “vocal” quality.

So pretty! Do you know what the weight is? Mini humbuckers are sweet

That’s a beauty! Congratulations!

I've never seen those mini buckers before, thought they were p90s at first glance. How do they compare to the full size ones?

Also RIP your back, I love my LP but it's so damn heavy I stopped gigging with it years ago

I picked up a Standard 50’s a few weeks ago. Same love at first strum.

When you get sick of it going out tune, go grab some Grover locking tuners. It’s an easy swap and it’s totally worth it.

Enjoy.
