The Peter Green Les Paul....

I haven't cared about metalica since I was a teenager and I'm not particularly a KH fam, but I find the over the top hate in here to be peculiar

IIRC Green was of the opinion that there was nothing special about his old ‘59 Burst. He said so in an interview.

There's nothing special about it right now. What an insult to Guitar/Blues legacy. PG was the best guitarist I've ever heard.

So I’m guessing Peter was dissing on himself?

He had a lot of trouble getting the neck pickup so it didn't overpower the bridge pickup. He did some very weird height adjustments to try to get it to sound "right" for his ears, like screwing the bass side of the pickup way, way down inside the pickup rout while the treble side looks up all the way.

All 50's Les Pauls were like that because Gibson did not calibrate the pickups in those days. The were more or less identical pickups and THAT used to drive me crazy too. I owned three of those bursts in the 70's and eventually sold them all.

I see they have several price points on the reproductions. Has anyone played any of them?

How is any of this relevant to PRS guitars?

I like PRS guitars.
