GMP v.3.0

Finally got through getting this baby to where I want it.

- Ditched the ugly satin chrome Sperzel tuners. Replaced with a set of new shiny chrome ones, to match the rest of the hardware. (...Why do manufacturers even use that crapola satin s**t anymore? It's like they don't even know that Sperzel has had the traditional chrome/gold versions for years, now.)

- Also swapped out the pickups for a set of new zebra Duncans. A Custom in the bridge and a '59 in the neck. My Orange Charvie has a Custom in it. And I very much dig it there, so that didn't take much convincing, guys. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] But, let me tell you, as much as I love it in alder, it is abolutely HUGE in mahogany. I was pretty amazed at the difference. Highly recommended for you LP freaks. ...And volume pots have been replaced, now, too. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Enjoy... [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Sorry, man. That'd be nice, but I have no such voodoo powers.

Re: GMP v.3.0

Thanks, Chuck. I'm really digging it.

Honestly, this is the first "Les Paul" I've ever enjoyed playing. I've liked the looks of LPs. But I think the short scale necks on the Gibbys was always a big turn off for me. And the GMP's build quality and hardware just blows away Gibson.

So classy in black and chrome...yet so badass at the same time.

Like all GMPs, it's Rock as F*ck.

I'm jealous....
