'76 Custom, wine red
'03 R6, gold top

I hope to add a 55-77 towards the end of the year.

Are we counting Epiphones here?

If so, I have two - A gold top '56 reissue with P90's, and a white Les Paul 100 with a bolt-on neck (my first guitar!)

So 7, if you're counting Epiphones.

.. is the only kind of LP that really does anything for me. P90s are cool.

Humbuckers are cool too, just not if they're being played by me .. I try, but I have real trouble making them sound good.

I've got an Elitist goldtop, so 8, if we're counting Epiphones.

My only electric is an Epi LP Special II, and i hate it with all my heart. Extremely muddy and goes out of tune after 15 minutes of playing. I was close to getting a CIJ Mustang last month, but then i had to get TWO root canals. Damn my frail body!(and my love of candy...).

The 'How many Strats' thread was counting all kinds of copies, so I guess all those count.

...I don't have an LP  :P

I've also borrowed an LP Junior from my brother for a long time. He built it himself. I love the sound of the P90 through distortion.
