I'm almost out in the street because of this purchase! Gibson Content...


My new Gibson Les Paul Supreme!











Basically all high dollar LP's look great but, they don't necessarily sound great to my ears. This one was light, sounded AWESOME, and feet great, so I had to have it!

That looks great with the gold hardware, nice flame top.

Be careful you don't hurt your back hulking it about

It's unusual with the custom style binding , the split block inlays, very RED and yellow burst, no ryhthm/treble switch plate, very gold hardware etc......

...I'm realy glad you like it and it works well for you. IMHO it looks a bit like an 80's Aria Pro/ Antoria/Hondo copy.

Was it way more expensive than a faded Heratige sunburst standard a la Kossof/ Greeny ?

I'd be willing to live on the street to own a guitar like that also!
Congrats!

Nice guitar, and a great flame top. Hope you got it at a good price, as those Supremes are expensive!

Call me strange, but I prefer the looks of my plain top Standard in Heritage Cherry. I always find perfect flame tops a bit too "furniture" not "guitar"? I'm well aware I'm in the minority though, it's just me and Slash I think!

It's light... I don't like heavy guitars... heck I don't like 98% of Les Pauls out there in regards to tone. This was just one of the four INCREDIBLE Les Pauls that I've played over the years. Being used, it was cheaper than the other 3 by a large margin:

1 1959 Reissue $4,200 new + tax
1 Jimmy Page Reissue $4,200 used + tax
1 1968 Reissue Custom $2,900 new + tax

This LP Supreme cost me $2,500 out the door.

Amazing! Absolutely fantastic!

Congratz man! Les Pauls are great guitars, I don't mind even if they weight a lot but they sure look and sound great
