Title: Re: [WTS] GIBSON LES PAUL Post by: polrpaul on July 09, 2013, 05:29:01 AM So is this a Traditional with swapped out truss rod cover and volume/tone knobs, so as to pass for a Standard?
Because there is a major difference between the two guitars: Traditional while slightly cheaper than Standard, offers a denser body mass (see old school weight relief vs. new chamber method). IMHO, a much better quality guitar which should never be dressed down as a Standard. The only thing to hate on is the pickguard or the screw hole left behind after its removal. Title: Re: [WTS] GIBSON LES PAUL Post by: s40ward on July 09, 2013, 04:13:22 PM Correct. This is a traditional les paul with some aesthetic changes to make it pass as a standard. Not sure if I mentioned it in the original post, but I have all of the original parts, and would have no problem reverting the guitar if the buyer prefers it. The reason I changed it is I disagree with Gibson's choice to gut the wood..it just isn't a les Paul (IMO) if it doesn't give you back pain after a couple hours of standing with it lol. When I set out to buy a Paul I was surprised to see the weight had dropped from 10-12+ lbs down to ~7lbs! I wasn't going to drop $2000 to feel like I was playing a toy version of the guitar. So I bought what for decades was a standard LP. They changed the guitar, not me! Lol. I just changed it back. Plus it's worth noting the tuners were swapped with grover chrome tulips, which is much more than an aesthetic improvement. I'm not a fan of Gibson deluxe tuners. These are more smooth, and stay in tune better.

Title: Re: [WTS] GIBSON LES PAUL Post by: s40ward on July 10, 2013, 07:50:58 PM I have no problem with escrow, and shipping is available anywhere; but shipping will be charged to the buyer if out of the continental US.
