Jim Harley Les Paul custom shaped instrument, with amazing features such as an half plywood/half 'mystery wood' body, a non-functional trussrod, a mistery fingerboard with reverse trapeze inlays instead of blocks, and some dead frets !
Now plays really nicely with eastwood airline singlecoils in HB cases, nice flatwounds strings and open tunings. Also took a gamble with a cheap ebay chinese fake-bigsby, the spring is way too tall, it goes back to tune only if you put the arm there 'manually', and the handle retaining bolt wants to unscrew itself

But it was given to me by a friend in high school, and the owner of the music shop was such a dick about it "how much did you pay for it ? Oh it was a gift ? I don't think I would call this a gift..." when I bought him the missing parts (a new nut and a bridge, which he managed to install incorrectly) that I always wanted to love this guitar since.
And his music shop went out of business recently, that what you get for being a dick to clients.
