The look, the feel, the sound. It doesn't get any better than the Gibson Les Paul. These guitars have fueled the sound of rock 'n' roll since Les Paul introduced them to the world in '52. Fender, of course, has its Stratocaster believers, and they are many, including some who also play the Les Paul. It's not always one or the other.
For me, though, no other guitar screams rock 'n' roll louder than the Gibson Les Paul. It's how the west was won, baby. Even a re-issue or a good Epiphone copy (when you can't afford the original classics) will do.
The rich tone and chunky feel of this bad boy in your hands can take you to another galaxy. The list of players who swear by these instruments is a who's who of the music world. The Les Paul is legendary. It's eye candy, ear candy, a wet dream for guitar players who want to hold the power in their hands. For me, many nights spent dreaming about the Les Paul before I actually played one, and when I got my hands on it, sheer nirvana.
