What speakers are good? The 5150 speakers are known for being horrible, the XXX speakers are thin sounding and aren't all that wonderful, and no one really ever talks about the JSX cab or plays it but the few clips I heard weren't inspiring. I actually think whatever they put in the classic series combos sound decent... otherwise, I have to agree... most sound like ass.

^^^would indeed hit that

I think they're solid mahogany but not 100% sure (Mike Sublowski at the LP forum would know he has a bunch) I've owned a bunch of regular classics from 90-92 and all had the slimmest necks I've ever played on a Gibson. The carve on the 60s necks has changed considerably over the years, but yours is probably different just being a custom shop. I know the historic 60s neck is fatter than the Gibson USA. Interesting. Thanks for the info:thu:

The first year Classics actually said Les Paul Model on the head stock and had a Classic truss rod cover. They also had not developed the snot green inlays yet. Those inlays will fade some if they get some sun light. So one made in '89? This one is a 1990, that I know for certain from the serial #.

Cool, thanks guys. Yeah, by not pretty... I just meant that it didn't have a crazy flamed maple top or anything. So, is it a mahogany body with a mahogany top? Or is it a solid chunk of wood? Also,the neck doesn't seem quite as thin as the later 90s classic I owned... but I'm not sure. It's been a while since I owned that guitar. Did the necks change or are they all the 60's neck?

Picked this up a few weeks ago. It's not the prettiest les paul ever, but I'm really liking it a lot. It's a little beat, there's some dings and some rust on the pickups and the binding is cracked in places... nothing I really care much about. It's got character! Otherwise it's in great condition. I'm just wondering if anyone could tell me anything about it. It's a 1990, which I believe is the first year they started making the lp classic. I don't really know much about gibson's custom shop though. I mean, there just doesn't seem to be anything all that special about this guitar... it doesn't have a sweet flamed top or anything. Did the classic start out as a custom shop model? I trying to understand why this would guitar would have been made in the custom shop. It definitely is a bit more mellow than the mid/late 90s classic I used to own. It also doesn't seem as heavy. Thanks

And we thought our american schools were bad...

write a little program that generates a sine wave, then build upon the sine wave so that it has some timbre, a simple synthesizer basically, then explain what is going on with it in the frequency domain using fourier transforms.
