| __________________________________ [Jun 22,2007 5:39pm - Niccolai ""] I need to buy that cab and this guitar. Sad thing is I only have 300$ in my bank account now and no job =( Hopefully I can afford to put the guitar on layaway and sell my MH1000 for a good chunk of what it will cost. I haveto buy a tremol-no for it as well. |

I would play a fucking hondo or jay turser before I'd ever play a gibson. Funny thing is? The ONLY two 6-string Gibson-esque guitars I've ever gotten my hands on, and liked? Were Jay Tursers. Not even kidding. One was SG copy, this thing had a nice thin neck (for an SG) and great action. The pickups weren't anything to write home about, but that's an easy fix. I still wish I'd bought it. The other was a double-cutout hollowbody, not at all appropriate for metal, but sounded fucking great for punk and rockabilly stuff, with less feedback when distorted than any other hollowbody I've played like that. Stolen, I wish I still had it. I can respect someone liking the tone of a LP, but I'm just not into fighting with a guitar. I want something that lets me do what I want to do with as little effort as possible, hence my ESP/LTD fanboyism. Oh, and one more thing: [img] LOL, wut? Fucking love Mosers. Anyway dont hate on the Les Paul hate on the dude that was fucking with you. I dont know my Les Paul is the best guitar I've ever owned. Its sturdy as hell, sounds like a truck and plays like a dream. I really like the ESP stuff too so I guess its just a matter of taste. |

| ________________________________________________ [Jun 23,2007 12:37am - Hooker in sweatpants ""] oh and any fucking clerk that pulls that shit should be fired on the fucking spot. |

| _________________________________ [Jun 23,2007 8:45am - Shamash ""] I love me some Gibsons, but they're made poorly these days. Interesting photos of the neck joint. Their fret work is mighty spotty now too. |

Ironic, because I'm pretty sure that your '79 is from a period where gibson was making some of the poorest guitars they ever made. Don't feel bad though, because I love my '76 leftie gold-top deluxe, which is DEFINITELY from the period where gibson made the worst guitars they ever made. |

The black beauty or the cherryburst? I think the black one is still at Phil's house by the way. |

I wouldn't argue, as I said I love my own guitar from the same period. However, it's widely known that that particular stretch of years (latter 70's) Gibson (actually Norlin at the time) moved their factory and were making the lowest quality guitars of their 50+ year history. Now think, If I love playing my '76 so much, and it's arguably one of the more crappy guitars Gibson built, what does that say about the higher quality instruments they made before and after it? |

| __________________________________ [Jun 23,2007 7:48pm - brian_dc ""] I've had an Epiphone Les Paul for about 9 years now and despite some minor electronic stuff that just needed to be soldered and replacing the pickups to taste, the thing has had zero problems. I don't know, I love the thing. One of the most unique sounding guitars on the market. |
