Many 70s UK heavy rockers sported De Luxes: Kelly Johnson, Scott Gohram (an American, I know), Ade Smith, etc.
I started a post on this site ages ago about the lineage of the deluxe’sin the UK, and the discussion was tossed around the idea that these were some of the few ‘non vintage’ Les Paul is available is to Brit working musicians at the time before mass imports, higher spending power, etc.
I played a fully stock 77 ox blood red deluxe once (pancake body), it must’ve weighed around 12 lb and the neck was super thin so it felt a little off balance to me (most of my ‘Paul’s have fat necks)..... But it sounded great, really clear and defined and snarly at the bridge.
Enjoy and thanks for the post!
