Slash: Derrig vs Max - The AFD Period
Contributed by Flickoflash: It is also well known fact that Slash also had the MAX 1959 Replica during the same period in 1985-86 as Guns and Roses used to rehearse in a nearby complex to Max Guitars Hollywood. Slash personally knew Max and saw him often enough but had never met Kris...ever!
Building a Chambered Les Paul
Contributed by nmguitars: With all the buzz around chambered guitars these days, and since I won't be buying any guitars for about 18 more years, I'm going to try and build a chambered LP-style guitar.
Hardware Plastic Comparision
Contributed by ashbass: It would be nice if we could maintain a thread here that showed images of the various plastic parts that
are available to us now. This should be useful for determining
what color or fit or whatever piece you need when you are
looking to oufit your Les Paul.
History of Les Paul Historics
Contributed by Liam: I've often wondered, now that Historic Les Pauls have been with us for so long, when various features appeared and disappeared. I'm kind of hoping to get a list together of years of introduction/disappearance of various features.
