Does this count as the old man stage?
I got this Epi Les Paul for free from my dad. It's a goth model from some year. After my dad retired he got into playing guitar and picked this up for cheap because some kid tried to turn it into a fretless. Dad re-fretted it and threw on a coat of paint. He prefers acoustic and needed space so it's mine now. Fret job is acceptable for basement riffage and the paint makes me not care a whole lot about beating it up. It needs a new bridge pickup, not sure what's in it but it's woolly and ice-pickey so I'm not a fan of it. Like the guitar though. Sounds pretty decent and doesn't weight a metric tonne. Could have some more sustain but eh. I'll pick up another LP at some point.
Also TOM>*
Here's some slop. I dialed in a better tone a few days after this but don't care enough to re-record it. Finally own a house so I can actually play with some volume.
