Re: Les Paul Copies

Hey Jack~ How do those Agilie's compare to the real thing? Are they pretty close?

Re: Les Paul Copies

Never played a real one but the body on that is Mahogany and the neck is Maple. It's a set neck also. Plays beautifully, definitely worth the $249 price tag.

Hamer Monaco Elite. They play better than any other Les Paul original or copy I have ever played. I've played some of the custom shop historics, standards, customs, classics, studios, etc. The Hamer outperforms them all. One day I will own one. I guarentee it.

Isn't that an oxymoron. [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img]

I've played one of these and they are nice. I feel there more PRS then Paul but for sure a good bang for your buck.

Re: Les Paul Copies

o, an oxymoron would be jumbo shrimp, only choice, or smart lady. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Seriously, though, to me the Hamer outperforms every Les Paul I have ever touched. It's in the neck. Hamer necks are the finest made in my opinion. By the way, I hated the PRS Singlecut. It felt like crap in my hands. Who knows why, maye knowing that it was way overpriced clouded my judgement.

Re: Les Paul Copies

Has anyone tried a Warmoth LP?
There showcase has some beautiful necks and bodies. Just wondering how a bolt-on LP would sound.

Re: Les Paul Copies

This is an older Samick LP Custom copy. Set neck. New Grovers, bridge, tailpiece, pickups. Great player and backup to my Gibson LP Custom.
