Emerald Green Quilt Top LP

[Fifty Watt Mafia]

Here is Warmoth #2 for me. Its on the way very shortly. Landed it second hand. Always wanted a green Les Paul and Gibson could never carry out a top/color like this. So glad I found Warmoth and they sound as good as they look. This has Seth Lovers, Rosewood neck and board, Grover tuners, 5A Quilt top, one piece Mahogany back, RS guitarworks pots/caps, Gold hardware. Just awesome. II'll post more of my own pics when it arrives.

You know, I'm having trouble coming up with positive adjectives with all the cool LPs that are coming up.

So - I'll just say I like it  ccasion14:

[shanejw]

Very nice.

 

[Super Turbo Deluxe Custom]

Apparently Warmoth LPs are recession proof.  Is Warmoth publicly traded?

Nice guitar.

......whoa. That finish is freaking brilliant. It does look like emeralds. Great score! If it were me, I'd have put an ebony board on there, but still, wow. Maybe the best green geetar I've ever seen.

 

[Death by Uberschall]

Beat me to it. I saw that guitar on ebay, decided to get it and went back to the page, too late. Congrats, awesome guitar.  :headbang:

Holy fudging shit!!!!  That top is amazing.  It's like swimming in a sea of green.  Great build.

More pics....sounds awesome!! Rosewood neck. Great dark type of sound. You can really hit the strings hard and push the dynamics with PAF type pickups and the right amount of overdrive. Its really vintage Les Paul all the way...

 

[Tempest]

That's one of the best looking green guitars I've ever seen!

 

[riverbluff]

Love the look of this guitar!
