I think LPs are great basses, but I'm not really an LP guy. And I'm indeed out of the age where I would play them hanging underneath my crotch which is a must with LPs if you want to look cool. SG bodies are too small for me too, with an EB-1 or Höfner I look utterly silly. TBirds, Explorers, Rics, Ripper/Grabbers and even Jazz Basses are more my thing.
