There is so much cool content this could lead to. If you still have your Nashville gifted Les Paul, I'd love to watch a video on a comparison between that and this one. Also curious to see how well a 20 year old R9 looks on the Plek machine. I'm not good on the history of Gibson but I think around 99/00 is when some changes happened with the Les Paul in a good way. I received an '03 as a 21st birthday present (parents thought it would persuade me to NOT pursue music and go to dental school, what a mistake that was). When you look up that time frame, lots of people suggest there was something special around 00-04 before the weight relief stuff popped up. That's on the standard runs, custom shop who knows; they were probably all awesome. Also kudos for not letting the top persuade you. That "Nicki" color was so gnarly looking but if it didn't melt with you as much, you did the right thing! -P

Rhett, Your chosen Les Paul does sound sweet and very robust. And the top, beautiful! That was a great video, of you and Tim trying out Les Pauls, what you were looking for in the tone, as well as the the comparisons between the guitars.

It's a ringer! Even on my laptop without headphones the difference with the other Les Pauls was obvious. You're lucky to have such a friend Rhett, that will come along and be the matchmaker between you and a mighty fine instrument.Congratulations.

@@noahvillasenor67 Lol,...That's just it, they aren't in agreement with you..All of the guitars were described as great and the one he got as the best. I'm exploiting the extreme exaggeration of the phrase "blew them away" Guitars like those being played dont get blown away..They were simply splitting hairs and the one Rhett has edged the others out.

Well said my man. I hope mine gets the heirloom treatment when I die, but for God's sake don't take less than $1500 for it honey!!

This was an invaluable video on so many levels. Great work, Rhett. Kudos on the selection and to Tim on the assist. I try to bring someone along expressly to try and talk me out of a purchase. That way if I walked out with an instrument, it was for the right reasons. I feel fortunate to have been privy to your process. You guys answered so many questions with so few words. It would be impossible to overstate the value in that. I couldn't be more appreciative.
