First NGD on this forum!

[engage757]

This is my first NGD on this forum! The first Les Paul I have ever fallen in love with. NOT a Gibson guy, but always wanted a Silverburst and now I think I am in love with these era LPCs!
Just got this in, 1979 Les Paul Custom in Silverburst! It is all original ecept the bridge pickup, which was replaced with an Invader. I have the original Pat. Pending bridge pickup and I will be returning it to it's rightful spot ASAP! Bought it from the Original owner! Not a big Gibson guy typically, but I do love a good old Silverburst! Straight Adam Jones style!

Enjoy:

Definitely going to be looking for a late seventies Black Beauty LPC or a White LPC with nickel hardware. Does anyone know if an original late seventies LPC would have nickel/silver hardware?

If you were to only own one Gibson, this is a heck of a choice - congrats!

Sweet! Beautiful example. I need an older one to go with my 2007. Let me know if you hate it and want to give it away.

Thanks fellas! I think this may be a keeper! I want to add one more! What are the main differences tonally between Tim Shaws and Pat. Pending PUPs out of curiosity?
