The LPs (family photo)

[gibson08]

Here are mine. I want your custom by the way.

Nice LPs! Always wanted to try some modular stuff, but never quite got there. Custom stays BTW.

great picture gibson08. Can you post what year and model those Les Pauls are and which one is your favorite?

Sorry, should have posted that,,,may not remember all the years.
Back left is 05 68CA, Back right is a 92 Standard which I bought new, front left is a 58 reissue (R8), front right is a Guitar Center run of the 60 reissue (G0).
If I have to pick a favorite it would be the R8, just put in some new Zhangbuckers (had JB/Jazz before) and I just cant get enough of these new pickups, Best pickups I have ever bought, very vintage toned and very Page like tones.

Thanks for the info, I will have to check out those Zhangbuckers for my '73 LP custom. They look pretty reasonably priced for the machine wound versions anyway.

No problem, they took a little time to get but def worth the wait, and he made sure that I got what I wanted.

Nice LPs everyone, RandyVanMartini, Shawn, Reza, Jofipe (nice cabs BTW), all great looking stuff, all though I am feeling a little in-adequate after seeing Randy's

Thanks, but shoot bro, no reason to feel like that with a collection like yours !

Thanks man, forgot to ask, what double cream pickups in that??

They're from "Dr Vintage" Rick Norman Pickups. That set is what he calls The Phoenix Burst Set, which are modeled after some original
hot wound PAFs that were in a Burst he had access to. They measure around 8.7k and 8.2k and sound phenomenal !

I ordered and received them with nickel covers on them, but decided to take off the covers and found double whites !
