Which les paul to buy???

[glenn60]

Hey guy's need some opinions about which guitar is the best deal.There are 3 les pauls on craigslist I've been dealing on first one is a mik les paul standard plus top, blue with a bigsby on it will need a set up for 200 next one is a les paul classic quilt top very nice condition for 250 and the last one is a les paul prophecy wine red with the 24 fret neck and gibson dirty fingers pu's for 300 all have hardshell cases. which is the better deal??? and might as well add I have a standard plus top birdseye maple and a custom, white with gold hardware

I'd say leave no stone unturned and try all of them out, see which one plays/sounds good to you overall, it's the best way to determine which guitar is for you anyways--good luck!

Do you have any others with the bigsby on it now?

Buy the one that makes "you" happy. We don't matter, unless you're buyin' it for "us"

if they were all the same price, then id take the classic.
now its probably between the classic and the prophesy.

To be honest, if I could come across similar deals here in Montreal I'd probably take all three of them! I think they are all good deals, pricewise I think the prophecy is the best deal but if I had to settle for just one, I'd take the Classic. I'm not crazy about blue guitars so I'd choose that one last and the Prophecy second. If the Prophecy had the standard 4 control knob setup, that would be my first choice.

+1. If we had those deals in Aus I'd get all of them too. Whats your budget like? If you can narrow it down to two... buy two of them

Saying that though the quilt top is probably my personal choice.
