    Splurged on some straps

    I've been using the $20 Ernie Ball Jacquard straps for years. They're cheap, they look good, and they hold a guitar, as well as having a large length adjustment - I'm not tremendously tall, but I'm all upper body with short legs, and I need a strap at least 60" long. Preferably about 63". I've...

    Who has this kind of money laying around to buy these guitars?

    Oof, that's pricey! Personally, I can see going up to *maybe* 5 grand...maybe. My record to date is $2800...although I just calculated for inflation and the $1700 I spent on my first PRS Custom in 1995 is the equivalent of $3499 now. It seems like a lot of Les Paul guys are gigging with the...

    OK, so less expensive than another Les Paul :grin:. The Studio I bought in April is great - plays great, feels great, looks great...but the stock BB Pros just weren't doing it for me.

    I started in February with the TV Yellow Junior...then in March I needed the Standard (Double Trouble!)...then I always feel like I need a backup, and Guitar Center had Cherry Sunburst Studios on sale.

    If you could play through anyone’s guitar rig, whose would it be?

    Rich Robinson's rig, Three Snakes era. Dickey Betts Fillmore East era.

    Normally, I'm team pickguard on for a Les Paul...however...

    I put it back on, then switched from reflectors to speed knobs and added a "Standard" truss rod cover.

    The guard went back on this morning, for 2 reasons. First, I do think it looks better with the guard - it adds some visual contrast that I think makes the exposed grain pop more. Second, and more important, I like to anchor my pinky on it, it's a super comfy spot for that.

    I decided to see what my new Lester looks like without the pickguard. I'm not sure I can put it back on...usually I think it makes them look naked, but in this case, I'm OK with that!! Before: After:
