So I pulled the trigger and got this...

...as my early birthday gift.







It's a Gibson Les Paul 1960 reissue, and I should have it in my hands early next week. I can't wait!!!

That's beautiful, Alex! Incidently, my Brother in law just started to take up the guitar. He plays for his kids.

It is beautiful, Alex. My paternal grandfather and several relatives on that side always have preferred Gibson guitars.
