I find it hilarious, though it does kind of ruin the mood of the music to see it.

it is funny,
but at thebegging of the vid i was like
"ooohohh, that guitar is so sweet, damn that player has got soul!"
and thne when i saw his nasty rock face i said
"someone needs to smack him, really fucking hard, or at least get his seizure meds out"

With. Otherwise it starts to look like a PRS Singlecut.

looks fucking lovely either way, doesnit?

but no pickguard = more golds

but i just had a fetish for goldtop+p90s+nopickguard ever since I saw that video

what a nice looking guitar

IMO all LPs look better without the pickguard. Just screw the screws back in to the holes.

Also - I quite fancy sticking a Bareknuckle Pig-90 in a guitar one day. Essentially a Warpig in P90 size. Looks cool as fuck. Unfortunately can't get on the site at the moment to post a pic.

the one in the video has mojo. i love the wraparound bridges on goldtops. one day i hope to own a 54 reissue goldtop.

+1

I like it with the pickguard personally.

Also kids - I played this guitar. It's my favourite Les Paul I've ever played. I would go as far as to say it is a good guitar.

i thought about putting the Mississippi queen humbucker size p90s in the custom. though i think i'm just gonna sell my les paul custom.
to cash generator!!!!

Yeah the MQs are such nice pickups...am putting one in the neck of the next LP style guitar I get for sure.
