HW: new album ??

[Steven Skane]

The LP 1960 Classic has the Page signature ceramic magnet humbucker's and it
sounds like an Tel...alright I was about to tell a little lie. It sounds
like a runaway freight train like all LP's and does a wonderful Zeppelin
sound. Does nicely on Hawkwind and most types of music  where an LP sound is
a reasonable choice apart from the 'gotta have a Strat' stuff like SRV,
Trower and non blues Hendrix. If you want a Zeppelin or a classic Les Paul
sound it is an excellent choice and is a very elegant looking guitar. It
thunders through Space Ritual songs too.
