been wanting a les paul classic, played one about a year ago and i thought i liked it, but i let it go. now i have myself dwelling over getting a les paul, so i went to guitar center yesterday to play a few.. well 5 actually. a standard, a traditional, a traditional pro, and 2 epi les pauls. and i played an sg classic with p90s. .....and a few strats and teles and a sweet pink squier strat.

overall, i hated the gibsons and the epis were better in ever aspect. i couldnt find the right feel, i couldnt find a good tone to save me and it just wasnt comfortable.

with all that said, i come home rather disapointed but i find myself on musicians friend website gawking at the new traditionals. ...is it me or is there just something about them??? i absolutely love the way they look, but i dont like their tone in the least.
