Are you team Maple or Mahogany for a Les Paul Standard? 🟢Available USED on My Website: www.troglysguitarshow.com 🔴Reverb: tidd.ly/4aFiyhC 🐕 Private Help Sessions: troglysguitarshow.com/help-appraisals/

5:37 "Z-Glide" TBH, the idea worked when a full gloss finish was used, the market however preferred satin finish on the backs of necks. I agree Austin, the TV Yellow and Black Binding is a real treat for the eyes. A pair of black P-90s would really take this '50s Mahogany Top to the next level.

Maple

@doe53 2 ай бұрын

Trogly, I had a dream that Gibson made a Les Paul Supreme Special. It had a flame top, super 400 inlays with gold mini humbuckers instead of P90s.

Team maple. I would like cream binding on both.

I think they both look classy with the black binding and plastics. Whether it was traditional or not, it works esthetically for me.

I can see why they marked it M for mahogany..... so they don't confuse it with M for maple😮

@joermnyc 2 ай бұрын

Maybe that's why there's an asterisk on it too, "*M... but not THAT M!"

Dig it. I remember those LP Standard Traditionals from a few years ago that had a 'hog' top but a natural finish. Those were banging guitars with a wonderful more mellow tone. Yeah, I agree the tv yellow stands out more.

It looks great with black biding and I love 50s necks. It is a kind of reversed Standard in Ebony. Put a maple fretboard with black inlays (e.g. SG dark) and remove the veneer from the face of the headstock and you have full reversed Standard aged (yellowed) Ebony.

I'm not a fan of tv yellow but you opened that case and even I said "nice!" Might be the black binding makes it pop that little extra I needed...or just a great top under. But that's a nice one!

@rodennis418 2 ай бұрын

ok...on the pickup leads. Kinda makes me hope you remove the backplate first just to see if there's a cluster of wire hiding in there. Thinking back to an early install I did where I bundled the extra wire vs. trimming it down :)

Gibson is probably testing the market on this model, using two 'safe bet' colours to ensure stock doesn't hang around too long if the Hog concept isn't accepted

@PlatinumBlack90038 2 ай бұрын

The fretboard looks weird past the 22nd fret due to the black neck binding. The Burstbucker 1 and Burstbucker 2 are the best humbucking pickups, and feature the just-right-sounding AlNiCo 2 magnets.

Definitely something out of the ordinary for a LP. Looks good and I have a feeling it will be a rare model 10 or 20 years down the road.

Austin , your cheese has slid off your cracker ! That cherry red one is absolutely gorgeous ! I don’t much care for the TV yellow or white versions but I do love that cherry 🍒 one , a lot . So much so I’m already looking into buying one and since I just bought a ‘61 SG , in cherry of course , I’ll have to figure out some “creative” financing options to make it happen . But it will happen ! Problem is , I also love the Les Paul std. ‘60’s in HCS and blueberry burst and viper blue and ……….. you see my dilemma . I did see your video on the red one and now I love it even more . How about letting a guy hold several thousand dollars for a while ? Take care all .

I would like to see how Gibson would do a black binding a custom. My dream made to measure Les Paul custom would be a translucent light grey burst heavily flamed top with a darker gray teardrop border, black multiply binding, black inlays, maple fretboard with gray stain, matching dark gray headstock. Kinda monochrome but with black accents. I would like better if it was white, but how it's harder to get it right it can be grey!

Wasn't full mahogany Les Paul's original concept? I never thought about it but the redesigned SG did follow Les' vision of a full mahogany body and neck. For some reason he wasn't down with the maple cap.

Would be cool to see CS versions w/ maple and hog tops all aniline-dyed front and back. The hog would just be cool that it was all the same color. Then in maple top you could see how woods show the color differently.
