Members dangolguitartec Posted December 4, 2009 Members Share Posted December 4, 2009 Just throwing this out there... Anyone got an LP Custom that they would want to trade for an LP Standard Plus??? If anyone at all is interested, let me know and I will send tons of pics and all specs and info...Beaters and headstock repairs will be strongly considered, also. See teaser photo below...

Members MRAAJR Posted February 2, 2010 Members Share Posted February 2, 2010 Free Bump for a beautiful Guitar. I recently traded my 08 LP Standard preimium plus Desert Burst for a 1976 LP Custom thats pretty damn nice. So your not dreaming its possible. Here's a pic I hate to burst your bubble but 70s Gibsons are the worst example of Gibson guitar craftsmanship there is. I am not saying money wise you got a bad deal because you got a great deal, but the guitar you had was a much nicer guitar. Do not let all the binding and appointments blur your vision. Those guitars suck when it comes to the realm of Gibsons And to the OP....if you are looking for a nicer guitar than you have you will have to look to the Custom Shop. The new LPs Gibson is putting out are really nice. And that color is also to die for. You could sell this thing for close to $1800 and buy a post-2000 Custom for around $2000.

Members 02-fatboy Posted February 3, 2010 Members Share Posted February 3, 2010 I will agree that I got a good deal as far as the value is concerned. However this thing plays way better than my 08 Standard did. Of course my Standard did have way nicer options, and it also sounded a little nicer to be honest but man does this 76 play amazing. Everyone can bash 70's Gibsons all they want but no matter how you look at it this is a great guitar.Anyways I would have made this trade again a heartbeat. Sure my standard sounded better but this 76 sounds pretty damn nice too. I had no luck selling my 08 LP except for low ballers. I don't even think ebay was gonna get me 1800 dollars but I never let the auction finish to find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rhammer19 Posted February 3, 2010 Members Share Posted February 3, 2010 I own 9 Les Pauls (70's,80's,90's,00's) My 2 favorite guitars are a '74 Custom and a '75 Deluxe. Been playing guitar for 25yrs. When set up properly these guitars are amazing (imo) I think the 70's Les Pauls get a bad rap because of the pancake body.

Members 02-fatboy Posted February 3, 2010 Members Share Posted February 3, 2010 I guess what it comes down to is you either love the 70's LP's or you hate them. Sure the new Customs have improved alot since the 70's but I still think my 76 is by far the best damn playing LP I have ever owned.As far as sound goes my 05 Les Paul Classic is my favorite sounding LP. However its much hotter than my 76. Either way both are great guitars.Sorry for Hijacking this thread. I really comes down to a matter of opinion. Typically if a 70's LP has been around for this long its likley its a pretty good guitar.However there is always the exception to every rule.
