Les Paul 

Gibson's main guitar model. Designed in 1952. Most people think they sound great, however, in truth they have a muddy sound, weigh alot, and most have uncomfortably thick necks. All all fairly overpriced. Still a great guitar, though probably not as good as a Mark II Deluxe Mosrite.
Mick Mars of Motley Crue stopped playing Les Pauls becuase they are heavy and hurt his back.

les paul 

A single-cutaway guitar made famous during the classic rock era. Unfortunatly, most modern players simply take advantage of the fat and muddy sound of the humbuckers to mask their lack of skill.
Crappy power chords are for les paul players. Screaming Hendrix melodies are for strat players

Les Paul 

Very overrated guitars, too much sustain, heavy feel,and muddy pick ups. Plus, they're very expensive.
Shit, I tryed playing rhythm on my Les Paul, and all the notes kept ringing out, making my rhythm sound crappy, plus, the pick-ups blurred it all together, it sounded like shit. My back hurts from it, and I'm not pleased with this thing, especially since I paid 2000 dollars for it.

gibson les paul 

The greatest guitar ever made. A normal Les Paul has a maple, single cutaway body, Plated humbucking pickups, 22 frets and a rosewood fingerboard.
Guitar player 1: Hey man, I got a Fender Strat
Guitar player 2: That is pathetic compared to my Gibson Les Paul.
