Default les paul

well somehow or another i picked up this les paul and it followed me home .

a few months prior it was a gibson es 335 50th anniversary now its a 1960 reissue les paul .

anyways plays great sounds even better

who would have thought after all these years ive been a fender and gretsch player my eyes have opened up to gibson .

anyway just thought i would share my thought with the folks here

That is one of the prettiest guitars I've ever seen! Did you take that photograph or is it a stock photo?

Extremely nice photography. And I really like the aged binding on that guitar. Classy pickguard too.
