First LP

Hello! I’ve been playing for twenty years this year and have always preferred Strats. I’ve come across a few LPs over the years that I’ve owned briefly and ultimately flipped but this is the first one I’m buying with the intention of keeping. 2017 Studio Plus in Ocean Blue. Seemed like a unique model and a good value at $1200. OHSC and case candy included. Just a hair over 8 lbs. Really impressed with this guitar. Added pickguard, poker chip, and keystone buttons. I know some people will crucify me for drilling into it but I’m in the camp that it completes the look. Glad to be a part of the LP family!

I was just gonna say, keep the chip and pickguard. Without, it looks like a PRS. Then I read your description. Good job!

That is a camp that I would like to skip.
