    Been wanting a Les Paul but having had bad experience with 2 Gibsons I owned in the past I started to look at other brands. I had heard good things about vintage Burnys, Grecos & Tokais so I kept an eye out on Ebay and came across this beaut for the price of an Epiphone:

    Its a Mid 80's Burny Sykes LPC complete with mirrored pickgaurd:

    It really really is! My only gripe is that if you didnt know it was a Burny you'd prob think it was a Bunny :(

    I really don't like Gibson Les Pauls, but there's something about lawsuit LPs that I kinda like, maybe it's some sort of two-fingers-up-at-Gibson thing, but that's a lovely guitar! :D

    Cheers Dude :D ! I'm kinda in the same boat, I'm a Fender guy at heart but this lawsuit LP gives me everything I love and hate about LP's at a price I can live with :pac:
