Gibson to reproduce Eric Clapton's legendary 'Beano' Les Paul...

Finally....
In blues-rock, where I began strumming in 1971-1972, one of the Moderne-level Holy Grails of tone.... More than the Greeny, in my mind.
Now I can plan to fritter away my sons' college money with a smile on my face!
(Not that I have any, anyway....)
Seriously, the price and features, as well as how "close" to the "Beano" LP, are still unknown details.
Oh, and I hope they skip the faux aging. I think it's ridiculous. I buy new, I want to get NEW. YMWV.

While Clapton is a great player and I'm sure his signature guitar is nice, I'm betting it comes with a price tag of around $5000 street price then add $2000 for a Vintage appearance, plus another $10,000 if he signs it. Another cool guitar that no one who is in their right mind would buy. I'd rather purchase a vintage LP for $20,000 then buy a signature model.
