Haha! No kidding! I joke that my gym membership is just to support my guitar hobby. But hey, it builds character, right?
I’ve been playing the Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s Gold Top for a while now, and I must say the neck profile is a dream! It’s nice and chunky, which provides great support for my hand during long sessions.
I agree! The weight distribution really helps too. It feels balanced, making it comfortable even when playing for hours.
I found the Les Paul Standard '50s Gold Top a bit on the heavier side. While it sounds amazing, longer playing sessions can be tough if you’re not accustomed to the weight. Anyone else feel that way?
Yeah, it can definitely be heavy! But I think it adds to the sustain and tone, so it’s a trade-off.
I’ve always loved the feel of the neck on the '50s Gold Top - it just fits my hand. Plus, the overall craftsmanship is top-notch, really makes it a joy to play.
Totally agree! You can’t beat that vintage vibe. It’s not just the sound, but holding such a classic is inspiring.
Honestly, I’m curious about how it stacks up against other models. Does anyone prefer the '50s over the '60s models in terms of comfort?
I haven’t tried the '60s model, but for me, the '50s neck is perfect. It keeps my hand relaxed, helps reduce fatigue during those lengthy practice sessions!
I don’t get why people rave about the neck profile so much. It feels fine but not revolutionary. Maybe I’m just used to lighter guitars?
You might have a point, but for those who love a classic feel, it’s perfect. Just different strokes for different folks!
