Finally got around to getting myself a Les Paul. It’s one of those guitars that I don’t need, but just always want to have.
This one is a 2009 (I think) Traditional. Love the idea of the big lump of mahogany that the trads have going on. Even though the more modern tone of a standard would be better for me.
Has the 57 classic pickups in it, not a fan of them at all. So will be looking to swap them out soon. (If anyone wants to buy them or trade, keen to chat)
But all in all, a fun guitar!

Dibs on the pickups
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Didn't know he was selling pickups now. Cool.
I was think about some EMGs though.... jk.
I had a guitar with Suhr Aldrich pickups in it at one point. They were great, after something like them again.
Ummm....

The Lester looks quite old fashioned on that wall!
My ambition in life is to die young as late as possible.

Haha! Would have been even more obvious if the next guitar was in shot too.

Nice Les Paul Mark
Good to see you're still keeping a fairly familiar set of guitars.
