... but far from a piece of ****

Meet my "new" '08 LP Studio Vintage Mahogany. Apart from a couple of tiny nicks here and there it's like new. I can't say the same for its case though! My word, but this is a light and resonant guitar. I assume it's chambered. It's also amazingly bright for an all 'mahogany LP too, must be the Burstbucker Pros. Roll down the tone controls for more girth, no problem. A bit of a surprise this one, just one of those guitars that follows you home.
