I paid $600 for my standard. Got it from a local music shop just trying to get rid of it. It's a 1995.

Ah, that makes sense. No way can I justify $600 for another guitar.

I wasn't even in the market for another one right now, but this is about $500 worth of guitar and accesories for $250. I just couldn't pass up the discount.

Aw, too bad it's not a Gibson Les Paul. I don't play and I'd still kill to have one of those. Just because that's what Jimmy Page (in my opinion, the greatest guitarist ever) and Gene Simmons play! I also wouldn't mind having a double necked Gibson SG, Jimmy Page's signature guitar. smile smile smile smile

I have 3 Les Pauls and they are awesome. Great action, good feel, and they sound incredible.

Gene Simmons played bass, do you mean Ace Frehley?

DO NOT BUY A MOD!

If you buy one you will not stop!

OHHHH I know! OHHH I Know!

I sold my GTP Comp G and Got a GTO thought that would be enough --- But NOOOOO I havd to go and get heads, cam and headers! == Now I am Addicted!

But nothing like the rush of going 1320' in less than 12 seconds or going from 50 to 110 in just a few seconds!

BtyantGTP, since I'm still a newbie, maybe you can respond to nad, but don't Epi Les Pauls and Gibson Les Pauls sound pretty much alike? I mean, to the average layman I don't think they'd hear a difference.

I love my Epi Les Paul. The sustain is incredible.

I was reading your topics in the GTO forum, but I got jealous.

3 2005 GTs and 2 2005 v6s Why they wanted to race was beyond me but.. this was when I was stock...another over-rated Ford product.

Now I am moded I doubt as many people will want to race..the car sounds really aggressive now.
