There's a sweet maple Les Paul Custom on E Bay. It even has a maple finger board! This is a really unique LP!

If I had money to throw around, I'd love to have this guitar!

Aint she a unique beauty?

I was just thinking. Aren't LP necks mahogany? If that's the case, I wonder how this maple neck alters the tone of this instrument.

They were maple from mid/late 70s through 82/83, I believe.

It's unique, but TBH I don't care for maple on Les Pauls it looks really wrong to me.

I was watching that one. Fantastic guitar. I'd love to have one of those. That's probably one of the brightest LP's out there.
