ganda. kamukha nung nasa cover ng beauty of the burst book.
one thing i noticed mukha bago ung pups rings nya compared to the other plastic parts ng guitar.

Magkakulay yung nut and rings, maybe mabagal mag age, hehe...

I'm aging the tuners, tailpiece and bridge bukas para mag match sa age ng guitar.

Ask ko lang sa mga fellow gibson owners here. Sulit ba ang LP R8 VOS? I'm thinking to let go one of my hobby(photography) para lang makabili nito. Pag mga custom shop na LP ba di nag depreciate yung price? Planning to buy this for the sake of investment and also for GAS.

straight up answer for you ... a basic historic les paul is not an investment ... not even if you just keep it in a glass case its whole life, which would be sad

the closest to the "investment" category would be stuff like limited edition murphy aged Gibbons, Page models etc which are sometimes priced even more expensive than vintage pieces (ridiculous but true)

other than that, the only other way to go would be the vintage direction... lespauls circa 1969

am happy with my r8 and r7. value wise mas mababa n talaga sya kesa sa original price. my advise abang ka 2nd hand. lalo na sa singapore ang mga guitara nila d naman laspag kapag 2nd hand. by the way you can try my guitars para ma sipra mo muna bago ka bumili.

it'll definitely go down bro, not unless you become super famous and everything you use becomes valuable.

VOS/HISTORICS are really fun to play. I'd get one again once i get more funds.

If you plan though on getting a really good sounding Paul, i suggest you try them first. There may be an exceptional historic/standard out there and there may be a ridiculously priced turd sounding vintage piece.

Filippo got lucky, really lucky with his conversion.

dito ka rin pala Singapore. Tongski has good sounding historics, an R7 and an R8.

Darth,

I agree with Allan and Jay! There are definitely nice historics to be found especially the ones starting in 2007 onwards... parang may nahanap si Gibson na secret stash ng wood bigla noong 2007.. mukhang masmaraming les paul na maganda tumunog starting sa 2007 and up! Subok ka lang ng subok until you find one that sounds like the sound in your head! Agree too to buy second hand... if you buy second, the value should hold (but not increase)... my 2 c's

Don't take my word for it.. pero parang hindi pa ako nakakita ng Gibson na ganyan yung machine heads (assuming na stock sila), and the routing for the pickups are awefully messy (sorry).

Hindi siya mukhang legit para sakin.
