Topic: bonaburst les paul!!!! wowwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!

Hi this week i finally gave in to the bonaburst ,  joe b 051 is with me now and cant belive what a guitar it is!!!
I said i wouldnt go down the signature route but f>>>k it  said goodbye to my 58 and have a new love i  my life!! big_smile
Picking this guitar was such dream really im a big fan of joe (who isnt?) i plugged this beast in and i couldnt belive the tone and playability of it , the bb2 & bb3 s are awesome  but im so impressed with the nylon saddles they actually work and make the guitar sing without being really sharp and trebley sounding!
This is the best les paul iv ever played and im very lucky to own a beautiful guitar i think shes a keeper and def a collectors item !
If you guys own one or the goldtop then let me know your thoughts and reviews!
if you ever get the chance to own one then do not be put off the by the signature thing i will not playing any blues as my band isnt about that, but the point im making is that i dont have to own a  joe bonamassa sig guitar and play blues!(even tho i love it)!! big_smile  big_smile  big_smile

Congratulations on your new guitar!  I too would love to own one but since my GF decided to move out I have other bills to pay now!  I'm glad to hear you'll play it and enjoy it instead of just looking at it..I'm sure you will do that plenty too.  I've never played any Les Paul other than a standard or my traditional.  I'm intrigued as to what type of differences there are between a masterpiece like yours and a regular model as far as the feel of the guitar.  Plugged in and not plugged in.

Congrats!!! I'm jealous...I've been GASing for a new Les Paul in the worst way. Not sure if an Epi JBLP will hold me over or am I just going to go get an Bonaburst or an R7 or what. I'll probably have to sell one or two to get one. Oh well.
Enjoy it...I've been staring at the Wildwood site for days.

Sweet... glad you like it. I'd love to try a new Studio when they come out.
