I have a tobacco burst plain top purchased new in 2003. The original “aged” inlays and tuner tips were greenish . Some haters called them piss green. I would change the tuners but then I think the inlay color would be too contrasting . The pickups are a little hot but of course gain can be controlled with the volume controls and your choice of drive pedals. I’ve run a ts909, Mxr fet driver, Mxr IL diavolo , tumnus and jhs Bender pedal and gotten great tones with all of them . Zep,Stones , EVH, anything else - you can virtually get any sound you want from these pickups . Neck profile is very comfortable . More so than the asymmetrical modern neck. I get comfortable with any neck shape within a few minutes of playing whether baseball bat 50’s or slim taper . Although I do prefer something in the middle like the modern c fender American standard necks . Great guitar , won’t let go of it, obviously .

Pretty guitar. They feel great too. The pickups were just too biting for me. I replaced them with Lindy Fralin Unbuckers and added some coil split capability. The biting sound gone, and great classic warm Les Paul sound is back. Original pickups great for cut with medium to high gain sounds, but I’m just much more of a clean tone and low overdrive player.
