I'm liking that 'Burst LP a lot!

sorry mark, the burst one winked at me!!
It takes a very deep-rooted opinion to survive unexpressed

they all look quite nice and I couldn't help noticing they were giving me a 'come hither' look!

I just tucked Rob safely away for bed after we jammed a little - excellent bass player too! I've already got the shortscale TB (currently with Mark), ordered the Goldtop with Scott of Thunder and will get the Junior one once its available. Looks great in real life, nothing cheap about it. And the oversize LPs do really look like basses, not guitars.

At the Gibson booth I also found out why the old LP Standards were deleted: Warwick refused to sell its bridge to Gibson anymore! Those evil Krauts.

Same here.

OTOH the doublecut shows they're willing to try something a little different.

Would really like to see it in natural mahogany. Still not sure why they did not use the original design?

These pictures really show the difference now. As Maxwell Smart once said "Missed it by this much".

It is a miss. They have this classic original design which they still use for guitars and instead they opt for something that looks more like a PRS without the arched top. What's next, bird inlays on the fretboard?
