Your pictures are even better, Justin, love the color! That looks really nice, congrats.

I've never not loved LPs but I've gravitated to the larger necks over the last years and find them a lot more comfortable for my older hands. They've been multiplying around the house. :D

Thanks Tom! I really pleased with it! The ‘50s necks feel great to me. This one seems to be just a hair smaller than my Junior. These Seth Lovers are really nice all around.

You can’t deny that there are some lovely Les Paul shaped objects. The guitarist in my highschool band had a white Tokai Les Paul custom clone that was an absolute breeze to play, and I’ve had a very brief noodle on a custom shop 68 custom reissue that felt lovely. I’ve also played a late 70s custom that weighed 12lbs and was a pig to play, but it can’t all be sunshine and rainbows. I’d like a black standard but it’s not happening any time soon - juniors are much more appealing to me.
