...les paul, the man, had a different name? say, billy bob.
"i'm GAS'ing for a goldtop billy bob"
or cletus?
"gibson has released a custom cletus with a richlite board"
and this forum would be mycletus dot com.

"I can't wait until Sweetwater starts shipping the 2012 Lester Polsfuss Standards" just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Well this thread will ruffle some feathers.

"Cletus"? Pretty mild of you. What if LP had a name... like "Clitoris"?
"What kinda Clitoris do you like?"
"Donna R weapon of choice is Clitoris. Here's what she says: 'I like playing my Clitoris everyday. I usually use nylon pick but I play it with my fingers, too. I take good care of my Clitoris. If it gets wet, I wipe it and carry on'"

Wasn't one of Les's early nicknames "Rhuebarb Red"? That would sure make for an interesting headstock.
