Favorite Guitar of the Week ?

MIDNIGHT · 09-27-2007, 05:44 PM

Hey ya'll :wave

What's your favorite Gibson Guitar of the Week?

Post pics too if you have any

Mine's most likely the Les Paul Supreme Autumn Burst from week 9

(but then again, i'd take ANY of them ANY DAY

)

the gold grovers, the brass TRC, the naked neck, the white binding, the gold hardware, the AAA flame maple, and the awesome finish

I'm kinda' digging these 2 variations of the Classic Antique...

ugh.. the mcafee of my pc is blocking the first pic..

which classic anique is it? the natural satin? the fireburst? the artist series?

P.S. i forgot about the LP Classic Antique from Week 2 .. the fireburst one.. i change my mind about my favorite.. this is my new favorite

it just has a hotter kick to it for me

BTW: It's hard to see, but the LP Supreme Autumnburst has a Figured Ebony Fingerboard. Thus the reason why there are no fret markers.

Wait until you see the next 12 Guitars of the week. It looks like they are going out with a bang.

Silverbust fans will be happy too.

I am new to this forum as I just bought my very first Les Paul last week!

It is my favorite. You have the picture here. Guitar of the week #14!
The coil taps and the H-90s give a tone that is wonderful! I love it.

I have always played Strats, numerous PRS models, and teles, but when I played this instrument. It made a wonderful difference!!! All the guys I play with say I should have never played any other guitar. I am starting to believe them....

ohhh! i did not know that

sweet!

it's nice to know we've got an 'inside guy' in our forum

Inside Guy · 09-30-2007, 03:12 PM

Some of what's coming: Silverburst Flying V, Explorer with EMG's, a proper SG special re-issue, a few new Classic Customs that might make you drool.

...and a certain guitar model from the 70's is back, in Silverburst.

i had a feeling the Silverburst Flying V was eventually gonna become a reality.. i mean, if they did it for the new centuries, then the silverburst was bound to have the same done..

.. maybe since there's already a Zakk Wylde Bullseye LP and FV, maybe there oughta be a Bullseye SG?

nice! can't wait!

.. i'm sure the Classic Customs are gonna be awesome.. they ALWAYS are..

Both VERY cool, but I'm leaning toward the Week 8 Antique Deluxe Goldtop with AlNiCo II mini humbuckers.

Error Code 404 - File Not Found
Click on it anyway, the file is there.....

nice choice

i wonder how the mini humbuckers on this week 8 LP sound..

NeoConMan · 10-01-2007, 01:03 PM

I like them.
Not as shrill and thin as a Firebird, just a smaller humbucker sound to me.

) ..
