For all the Randy fans,

And about time too!

on the randy 's forum are pointing out that Randy's guitar was a stock LP custom, i wonder what they will add to make it, huh, special.

It's more or less what they've done wiht the marshall amp, cashing in on a legend.

Wonder how much time will be necessary to also have signature mxr pedals :roll:

I love Randy but it's only a stock 1974 Les Paul with his name on the pick guard. Cool idea but the price will swell colons. :shock:

If they make another Randy lp it will be just like the one they did in the 90's. His white custom was a 76 with stock Gibson T top pickups. Which they don't make anymore. So if Gibson isn't going to make it just like his they need to hang it up right now. It pisses me off bad when they make a signature guitar and other than the guitar bod its self nothing about the guitars is close to being signature about them. Musicians friend sold an RR custom in 97, it may have had Gibson 490 pickups. If anyone wants a Randy lp, get a 70's custom, and make sure it has t top pickups cause thats what gave that guitar its sound. Like the sykes lp, he used a dirty fingers bridge, and t top neck, and he eventually replaced the neck with a 57. When Gibson did that guitar it should have had 1 dirty fingers, and 1 t top neck. I hate the 57 pups honestly. They first came out in the 90's. The memphis shop I frequented has 20 one off custom lp's once. One had a snakeskin finish like Teej's VVV. Those guitars were the first ever to have those pups. Gibson is nuts for not releasing some of their better products. I tried to save and buy the snake lp but missed it!!! Those custom went for about $2300 then for a one off custom. Man how times have changed :cry: Something like that would prob cost close to 5k now.
