You know that with the scale of the LP the only way he'd be happy with it is if it is strung with bass stings. How thick would that sound?

His hero, Albert King, played a Gibson V, albeit left-handed. When I first heard Albert King, I was amazed at how much SRV had gotten from him. Here's the Soul to Soul cover:
Axen: Jackson DK2M, Fender Deluxe Nashville Telecaster, Reverend Warhawk 390, Taylor 914ce, ESP LTD Surveyor-414
Amphen: Jet City JCA22H and JCA12S cab, Carvin X-60 combo, Acoustic B20
Effecten: "Thesis 96" Overdrive/Boost (aka DVM OD2), Hardwire DL-8 Digital Delay/Looper, DigiTech Polara Reverb, DigiTech EX-7 Expression Factory and CF-7 Chorus Factory, Danelectro CF-1 Cool Cat Fuzz

I noticed the similarities as well. It was shocking at first and initially thought it was cheap to imitate someone else, but then I realized how much soul was coming through and that I have done the same thing. So who was I to think that? Nobody.
I had forgotten about the cover of Soul To Soul. I usually think of Stevie with a Strat.

Those pictures are totally new to me. Stevie was the typical Strat player and I can not imagine him playing a Gibson. I still can not get used to see Jimi playing a gibson or even Rory Gallagher....
I am pretty sure that Stevie sounded like Stevie even with a Les Paul.

I don't know about him sounding like SRV with a Gibson. The only guitar I can even come close to recreating his sound is with a Strat.
Humbuckers have to much of a heavy tone to do SRV properly.
