A friend loaned me his Univox LP Black Beauty during my senior year in high school. I kept it tuned to open D and played slide on it. Great memory!

The day I broke into “Rocky Mountain Way” during band practice on this guitar was the day the kids in the basement looked at me sort of differently. This old Univox Mother was my gateway drug, my gift, my demise.

It's good to see that so many of my favorite AGF mates enjoy their Les Pauls.
Maybe I need to pull mine out again! - Glenn

Pull it out Glenn! . I have a bunch and they all sound similar (Les Paul signature tone) yet different. Pickups can do that.

In January 1970 saw Peter Green, Danny Kirwan of Fleetwood Mac 2 nights in a row at Whiskey a Go Go, in Hollywood. Went to Hollywood GC and bought a '58 burst and a '64 Deluxe Reverb for $450. I sold that expensive one, and have had others since. There's nothing quite like it, the sound many of us heard as early guitar enthusiasts.

The short answer is that I find other guitars more comfortable! I started my ownership of professional standard instruments with a US Standard Strat as I loved that sound (think Dire Straits and Pink Floyd) and since then the Fender scale length etc has always felt right. Nothing at all wrong with the LP but it’s never really worked for me. Heavy too. My 335 studio manages to fill the LP gap very well!
Right up until I bought my PRS my Fenders and the G&L felt perfect - and to be fair they still do. The PRS though is - for me - in a superb class of its own.

I can’t vouch for Jersey, but when I was a kid in Brooklyn this was a pretty popular guitar. Like I said earlier, how could they build such an easy playing, ultra fast neck guitar fifty years ago for $199 out the door, including a Univox gold trimmed plastic bound hard shell case with a gold plush liner? Gotta love it!

Could never talk myself into carrying the load. "He ain't heavy,... he's my LP".

Beacause you just might play in a power trio someday. If you want to make one guitar sound as big as possible, an LP is more or less the standard.

I own three Les Paul guitars, and a Revstar P90 that is very similar to a LP. They are all slightly different and all have P90s of some kind. I have a ton of overlap right now and I'm seriously considering downgrading a bit, but LPs are quite special!
