This is my latest promo pic for my Trailer Park Trash project. That guitar was a 1978 Gold Top Les Paul Deluxe (soapbar pickups) when I got it brand new in Oct. 1978. I have completely changed it...have a regular humbucker in the bridge, the finish turned green about 20 years ago and I sanded it down and stained it myself. I threw that guitar across Hwy 92 on the county line of Hillsborough and Polk County playing the Lakeland Lounge in Fla. in 1980. I was trying to hit my first wife with it, but I missed and it bounced across the hwy. lol
I've swung it like a baseball bat and cracked people's heads open in biker bars, redneck joints across the country over the years. 34 year old wood, sweat, blood, cum, cocaine residue and liquor engrained, cigarette smoke and burns from a thousand clubs over the years make it a very sweet sounding axe.
I haven't used it as my main axe since the mid 80's. But after dragging it out of my collection to take that band pic...I've decided to make it the front line guitar again for a while.
