So I thought with father's day just around the corner why not a Gibson Les Paul 70's Tribute. Tried it out tonight.... hmmmm must say through the Fender HRD sounds fantastic. Through the Peavey sounds great. The tone controls really do control the tone and the amount of sounds you can get out of this thing is amazing. I never really fancied the "Gibson Dirty Finger's" and would of actually have preferred the 57's or even the burst buckers with the tap coils, but I must say Gibson said the Dirty Fingers will provide a great clean sound and they are right. I have never heard such a hot pair of pickups so crystal clear.
