Finally pics

Picked up my first Les Paul after many years of dreaming. Love the tone, feel of this guitar. 2007 Custom 57 Goldtop. What does the LPR-7 stand for on the COA? Finally got around to cleaning the frets, fretboard etc.. was really gunked up when I picked it up.

Re: Finally pics

i'd think lpr7 would mean les paul reissue 1957 but i might be mistaken.

LPR= Les Paul Reissue
