NGD : Gibson Les Paul Standard
I got this through a trade yesterday, it's a 2012 Standard model, the previous owner yanked out the pcb pots/caps and replaced them with the good ole pots/caps. Alnico II slash humbuckers, haven't had a LP in a while. I almost forgot how lovely their thick/rich tone is

Oooh ooh ooh--jealous! Great looking guitar. Congratulations! My "practice" guitar--a 2004 Korean Epi Plus-Top LP--has the Slash alnico pickups and they're FANTASTIC. Bet your guitar sounds amazing.
What's your amp set up?

Wow that really is perty! And I really AM jealous. I decided somewhere along the line that I must have a Standard gold top. Followed a 2013 beauty on eBay this past weekend from a reputable seller. No reserve. Started bidding at about 900 bucks. Came down to me and this other guy right up until the last minute, literally. He really wanted it. After exceeding my absolute top dollar about 4 times, it finally edged over 2 grand with 30 seconds left, and I just let her go. Likely well worth it even at more than that, but my internal governor kicked in. Am both relieved today, as I really can't afford it, but sad too. Your pics make me happy for you, but sad for me ... sort of. :-)
Sorry ,didn't mean to hijack your thread. Enjoy your new guitar. Wicked-beautiful!! |

Beautiful looking guitar.
Those Seymour Duncan Alnico 2 Pro humbuckers are wonderful pickups. Those and the Pearly Gates, are my two favorite Duncan humbucker sets. Looks great!

Fantastic!!! What a beautiful color and shine. I have the SD Alnico II Pro pickups in a Slash Epiphone and they're great pickups. I think the Alnico Pro II Slash pickups have a little tweak to them.
What did you trade for it? |
