les paul standard metal yellow
I bought a nice Les Paul on www. Paylessguitars.com recently. Its price is quite reasonable, but the quality is really great! The Les Paul is nice and fat with either pickup, or both. The guitar is absolutely quiet and does not feedback except for the nice harmonic type of feedback. The alnico type pickups are warm, well defined and the bridge 498T has a perfect growl for rock and blues. The neck 490R is very warm and rings perfectly for old school rock, blues and jazz. Excellent sustain. Maybe mine is a ringer-it's my first Gibson Les Paul-but when it went up against my buddy's LP Standard, it killed with authority. The LP Standard has the ceramic Gibson pickups-not my cup of tea. The alnico II neck and alnico V bridge pickups are extremely expressive for my style. What great, pure tone and presence. Played through an amp or even unplugged this Gibson really has a great tone, sustain and resonance.

Re: les paul standard metal yellow
How in the fu*k does Paylessguitars get away with this.
You would think customs would be seizing these guitars at the border.

Re: les paul standard metal yellow
Thankinggod should be thanking god we don't have him banned for a "wonderful" 1st post like that.
Sounds like a shill for the company to me.

Re: les paul standard metal yellow
What in the world?!! Can't Gibson have Payless shut down? I mean I know there's copyright laws to protect Gibson from this. I hope if Thankinggod is legit that he knew he was buying a fake, but I guess you should be able to tell straight away by the Website. The "we make any guitar you want and put any name you want on it" should ring the alarm. Not to mention the under $500.00 USD price. But the nerve of posting it here, unless he's really unaware, MLPF moderator should be notified.

Re: les paul standard metal yellow
There's a sucker born every minute, especially now with all the buzz about copies of Gibsons on the net and especially on Gibson's site!!!!! this boy either has been freeze dried or doing hard time, research would have told most!!!!!!!!!
