'76 Les Paul Custom. It was originally wine red it's been sanded down at some point. Typical Norlin era pancake body, 3 piece top, maple neck and ebony fretboard. Has a Faber tone lock bridge as the original was a bit worn out.

Did the Norlins come with slim taper necks? I always thought Customs have the fast necks of all the models.

Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

1999 limited edition Deluxe. Sounds and plays great!
But my favourite electric guitar is this 96 Special.
