It's a beautiful piece, no doubt!  :supz:







Hopefully when he's comfortable removing his training wheels he'll get a Jackson. Zing!

Ouch. I never liked Les Paul's, the neck drops too much when I let go of it and I always hit the damn toggle switch. Damn fine sounding instrument, I'm just used to Fenders.

I do love me some SG's though.

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Did General Franco know Les Paul or did he play one?

I think the General preferred the cello-he locked up enough people to need a big one.
