WOW, I just was looking at the 2012 standards did anybody notice they had a price increase?  $2400 for a solid color and $2999 for a flame top!?!@##$

I think I read on one of the les paul forums that 1 piece boards were coming back, first on USA models, then I guess eventually on custom shop models, and that in general prices were going up.

Shame they put a Nashville Bridge on it too.  I guess I could live with that.  Whats this one limited to?  Eh 3 years from now they will make another run so who cares.

Just curious what makes the Nashville Bridge a bad thing?  Just that it's not like the other JB goldtops?

Re: Another One?

I have both styles Nashville and ABR-1 and personally I fell like the ABR-1 does a better job and transferring String vibration to the body.  Absolutely no scientific proof to back this up I just like them better.
