51 years (maybe 52 - we're not really sure of his exact age) and still my favorite guitar to play.

This Les Paul Jr. belonged to my Dad and was grudgingly put in my hands when I was in about 8th grade. I've got several others (electric and acoustic), but this one plays better, sounds better, and looks better than any of them. I've played it in rock bands, in jazz bands, even for the musical "Bye Bye, Birdie" in high school. I took him down to the basement today to plug him in and he still screams like a banshee and growls like a bear. Damn, I love this guitar!
