Kind of want an R6. I may have said... As an alternative there's this:

He's been trying to sell it for a while. I don't think there's that much interest in P90 Les Pauls (compared to HH at least). Not sure if a minty, new one would float my boat as much as waiting for a nice, used R6 (albeit it'd cost a lot more). Also, this one has a 60s slim profile neck. :-(

there was a lovely Jeff Beck R6 floating around here, Dharmajester ?
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

Love Goldtops with P90s! Think the last one I played was your previous one anyway.
I’ve been saying to my wife for a while that I’m buying a Les Paul for my 40th like it’s given, however let’s see in 4 years if I get the nod......it will most likely be a gold top with P90s if I have my way!

That last one you had was amazeballs, light and resonant. Definately one of the best LPs i've ever had the joy of playing. The sound of it through my 1987x was beautiful. I'd very much doubt that one on TM would satisfy.
1935 Martin D-45, 1942 Gibson Southern Jumbo,1950 Fender Broadcaster, 1954 Fender Strat, 1958 Gibson Moderne prototype, 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard.
1958 Fender twin, 1965 Vox AC30, 1966 Marshall JTM 45, 1977 Dumble OD Special.
Big black garbage bag full of original Klon Centaurs and TS808s.

I tend to agree. I'll have to hold-out and see what pops up. :thumbup:

I think I’d quite like a nice, very special acoustic. With birdies flying up the fretboard...

Acoustics don’t have to be blue. Although I could probably have that if I ordered it. But no, nice wood on an acoustic. Perhaps Cocobolo...

Watched PRS do a walk through his 2019 NAMM stand. Some flash looking acoustics there.

I know just the guitar..... :D
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Or blue is good on an acoustic too... I'm very open minded and flexible.
