Topic: Which Les Paul was It?

My wife and I saw Joe last night in Cincinnati.  Outstanding show.  I think I know which Les Paul it is but I wanted to verify it with someone.  The Les Paul that he used on "So It's Like That" and "If Heartaches Were Nickels" had the warmest, singing tone I have heard out of a Les Paul live.  All of his guitars sounded great but this one stood out and was so musical.  Was this an original 59?

Those two songs, along with "Steal Your Heart Away" and "The Great Flood" were the songs he played on that guitar when we saw a few shows earlier this month. So, the answer is probably yes.

Same with when I saw him a few weeks ago.

Yeah, he used it for 4 or 5 songs in Davenport.  You could tell it was the real McCoy.  PAF heaven!  The Red Freddy sounded awesome, too!
