I'm considering for the first time ever a les paul...
the first electric guitar I ever had was a les paul copy, and I didn't like it much.
And I've played teles all my life - but the last 5 years I've had a Heritage 535 and I really love the humbuckers, tone, presence of it. Recently tried a Les Paul at GC I liked very much
So starting to look at getting a Paul again- a Heritage, Gibson, whatever - under $2000 - used fine - I want one that would have THE tone - but also I know I wouldn't want to perform with a 9 lb. guitar.
What are the best options for that as far as decent weight and magnificent tone- is there a line that hits that sweet spot...
are the historic's available in I guess around 8 lbs or so? under 7.5 lbs would be great.
