    Belated NGD - '06 Elitist '57 Goldtop LP

    HNEGD! Two thumbs up!! One, 'cause it's an Elitist, two, 'cause it's a Goldtop! I think you've probably got a lifelong axe there.

    Incoming Friday Opinion / advice

    I'm really partial to the Black Cherry. My Elitist is Faded Cherry Burst, but it's verrrrry subtle, more like a Lemon Burst really, and I LOVE it. To me the FCB on the T+ is way too bright.

    Duncan Hot Rodded Set, or APH-2s?

    I've gotta agree with DPaul. I've got APH-2's in my Elitist, which has a thick maple cap, and they sound great. Really tamed the ice-pick tone of the stock pups, but still with good highs. But I tend to think they'd be a bit too dark on an all-mahogany guitar.

    Win a Lee Malia Les Paul Artisan

    I know what you mean. I've tried & tried to get some decent pics of mine and it's just not possible. In the flesh, the figuring just dances when you move the guitar. In pics it looks dull & lifeless.:dunno:

    Win a Lee Malia Les Paul Artisan

    Nice Elitist Plus. The thing I like about them is the figuring is kind of understated. To me that's more of an authentic vintage look rather than some of the insane patterns found nowadays.

    Pitfalls of swapping zinc for steel Stop/TOM bushings

    I put a Gotoh aluminum stop on my '56. A very noticeable improvement.

    Do you have too many guitars???

    I think I'm pretty well set. Of course I said that when I bought the PlusTop Pro, the Tele, the '02 Elite..........now they're all gone, to be replaced by the '07 Elitists and the JB. I really can't imagine getting rid of those or my '56GT for anything, so I'd have to add to the collection if I...
