The Guitar

This is a 1997 Gibson USA Limited Edition Joe Perry Signature Les Paul in Black Burst

 

These were released in the late 90s as an affordable Signature model for Joe Perry fans. They have since become collectible and pretty sought after. So much so that the sold prices on these are 2500-3k on reverb.

 

These are brilliant guitars in their own right. A very chunky 50s neck which is really comfy in the hand. Feelslike the Custom Shop R8 neck carves now.

 

The older style Classic 57s in these sound brilliant. Im convinced the older ones are a different spec to the newer 57s as they sound very different to my ears.
