.......and today a brand new 3 screw's hip.
My surgical team demanded I get my ass to the ER.
Got them to make sure I can stand with an 10lbs Lester,LOL

Had a crack that was diagnosed as a groin pull.
Suffered for a month.

But the New Tuxedo Lester ( and a 12 pack} will be welcome once they send me home. Oxycodone script too. :shocked:

...by the way, the (Les Paul} is a Killer tone axe.

:rock:

Pickups and not flame throwers. Gibson went for the tone of the T top pickups from the 69's to 1980
Great tone.

I'm wondering if the 3 screw hip didn't use one of those CBS era neck plates.

You're probably right, and with current medical industry pricing, I'll bet that CBS era 3 bolt plate now costs 20 grand. LOL

The period of time that's often referred to as "The CBS era" is actually The CBS ERROR.

whats neck profile like?
50s, 60's? other?

Gibson is calling it a 70" profile.....
More between a 59 and 60's
Feel's more towards PRS wide fat

Round in the shoulders.
I like a fatter neck to an exitance.
Knowing that, it just feels and fits your palm.

I had 3 of them in the house to check out the color and build.
Neck profile is all the same.

So far all of these I've seen are over 10lbs. Historically accurate I'm sure but I'd buy one < 9lbs.
