:cool:

What do you guys think of it? It sounds more STP than GnR to me. It's not bad but they didn't break any new ground.
 
I'm glad to see all of them working again, 'specially Slash. Sounds good to me!

I read an interview with Slash back in the early 90's. At that time he wasn't even using Gibsons as his main guitars. His Les Pauls were custom made for him by a private luthier. Now, that 's not to say he never uses Gibsons or they suck or anything like that. And maybe now he's using Gibsons now, I don't know. But at one time his favorite guitars were custom guitars.

The slung low LP is such a part of his look that watching him play an Axis wouldn't really look right IMO.

They were repro's of Gibsons that the luthier had custom made and the had Gibson logos on the heastock (to be honest I think it was just one guitar actually, the original LP he was pictured with). He also had some Guilds and a BC Rich that made it on stage at times. Gibson also had that Slash sig model too. There was a pic floating around of him and his guitar collection that appeared in a magazine a while back.
