do it! I can't even rock the neighbors man, apt life restricts me to headphone amps (partly why I have the nice axes, no need for a marshall half when all I can do is play through a line6 pod).

I never owned a nice electric guitar, i feel most of the feel comes from the amp. Thats why i own a Fender 212 Hot Rod Deville. I keeps the neighbors at bay hellfire: .

Pre CBS fenders are nice. A Les Paul is sweet too. but I prefer a American made Jackson or Ibanez.

OK both are fabulous guitars. Both have great history.
Fender was one of the front runners in history on electric guitars. Tehn Gibson came along and sponsored the Les Paul.
I myself own neither type however I own a guitar that I upgraded with fender parts. I personally like the sounds of both and the looks of both brands. I like the classical looks of Fenders especially the Jaguar, Jazzmaster, and Mustangs.
Gibson ofers the Firebird which I think is a very good looking guitar. The les paul and the sg.
Seeing how I cannot make a good decisions on these im goign ot compromise and cheat. I choose a Mosrite. Supposedly the better models(you may have to get the older ones as in 60-80's) have better sound than a les paul and I like the looks.
