Hi folks,
Been a few years since I posted as had to sell my guitar but happily
getting back into it. Just looking for opinions on these :

I'm curious about the tribute lineup, not just this model.

Thanks

This guy is at trizillions of Les Paul no inventivity, no innovation no sense of melody proably the worst illustrator for such a genius like Les Paul

I thought I had tried a Tribute before, but I also thought that they were much cheaper than that. The one I played was one of those with a satin finish and had a gold top. I personally prefer and non-gloss finish on the neck. I think you'd really have to go to a store and try them out for yourself. (Update: I tried a Les Paul Tribute T which apparently has been discontinued)

I didn't like the Les Paul I tried because I can't get over the neck joint. I love the way they look and sound but coming from super strats, it's hard to get high up on the fretboard. I now know why so many have a long strap and play with its neck right in the air.

What guitar did you have before?

Never mind my bad, I thought you were speaking of a Musical tribute to Lespaul done by this guitar player. Now I realise that you were talking about the name of teh model sorry for the confusion :thwap

Hey GG, they are GREAT guitars. I bought my Gold Top Tribute circa 2012. LOVED it because of the tone and the lightweight kindness to my back. I had a local artist "pin-stripe" binding to the body and neck a few years later, also replaced the satin with a high gloss finish like the standards have. Love it even more!
