[QUOTE="nofearfactor, post: 2882284, member: 1535"] Thats why I dont play em much any more. Out of the 7 or so LPs I have I think really only one actually is exceptional- my silverburst with EMGs- 5 are decent, but one is a total turd and its a newer one anyways which is the problem likely. I have a thing for Standards, do not care for Customs or Studios. A Gibson LP Standard was my very first electric. Pawn shop find, still have it. My buddy hauled me to LA from San Diego to go shopping with saved up money. I came back home with an old az z Standard in a beat up case, a well worn old Marshall JCM800 2205, and an old as shiite 1960A cab that had to stick out the trunk of his Camaro.
