Yes, but there are several different kinds of Les Pauls that Gibson sells, ranging from about $800 all the way to about $3,000. They vary extensively with the paint, lacquer, wood quality, design, pickups, neck, and several other factors. Considering the mediocre paint job and the P-90's, it seems like its a cheaper, lower-end model (yet still, probably the most expensive guitar we've seen him with, as Gibson seemingly ignores costs of production - in contrast to Fender and Epiphone).

Yeah, but it's still a LP DC. :P

It's most likely a Faded Les Paul Double Cut, they have P-90's and the are relatively cheap.

Haha, but that's just like saying a MIM Stratocaster is still a Stratocaster. It's notably different from a true American one.

Does anyone have any current pedalboard/gear pics? Like scans from the WU!x3 bandscore? I can't wait for the PP bandscore..

Looking back on that pic on page 10, it seems Manabe ditched the Vox distortion?

Post Re: Gear Talk 2.0
Not much, and I don't know how useful it will be, but I thought I might contribute some information on Jun's settings:

Amp Head set @

Gain
2 o'clock
Bass
slightly above 12 o'clock
Low Mid
12 o'clock
High Mid
1 o'clock
Treble
slightly above 12 o'clock
Bi-Amp Balance
Around 7-8 o'clock

I don't know what role the graphic equalizer plays in all of this (never had one of those on my amps) but it's pretty much even across everything except for a small boost to the 60 and 160hz range. Also the settings on his Jazz Bass seem to be tone and bridge pickup at full, with the neck pickup dialed back a little bit (roughly pointing at the bridge pickup).

Sansamp Classic set @

Presence Drive
11 o'clock
Amplifier Drive
12 o'clock
Output
10 o'clock
High
1 o'clock

Roger Mayer Voodoo-1 set @

Gain
9 o'clock
Tone
11 o'clock
Output
2 o'clock

The settings for the Sansamp are really only for Hybrid Rainbow, but the amp and Voodoo settings are more consistent.

What does Manabe eq with his Dunlop EQ? I was wondering if it was to boost the mids of the muff? Or what...
