The Trans Amber Les Paul is one of the most stunning Guitars made by Gibson today! My next LP is going to be a Trans Amber!

Thanks for all the welcomes and comments guys!

Yeah, I just love the color. Especially matched up with the real dark rosewood fretboard, which even darkened up a little bit more with the fretboard conditioner I put on it. :cool:

Nice. I almost pulled the trigger on that one. Love the mineral streaks. Can't wait to see actual photos! HNGD.

beautiful guitar! One of the pics threw me for a minute. I saw the reflection of the apple logo on the phone with which you photographed the guitar and I thought there was an apple logo in the pickup.

whoa

It sounds like a Les Paul should, and plays just awesome. Action is nice 'n low, with no buzzing.

Congrats on that Desert Burst... be sure to share pics!

Got it today....top is sweet. Wide tiger stripe type flame. It has a great singing lead lead tone. You can definitely hear the affect of the modern weight relief. Definitely different than my other Paul's. More so than expected so I'm not sure what to think :laugh2:

Fit and finish is perfect.
