why does almost all tokai player want a les paul type guitar (usually a standard but sometimes a custom)? It seems to me that people often overlook studios, specials, SGs, and ESs here. The latter are great guitars. and arguably, the sg175 and es175 are better values than the ls320/370 etc. It is very expensive to make a good les paul clone - you need a lot of honduran mahogny etc. an es175, on the other hand, is a great guitar but cheaper. having tried a lot of tokais I'd say that the sg175 and es175 are much better guitars than the ls150 and ls160. and, the two former are closer copies of vintage gibsons than the two latter. I'm asking: why do you want to choose a mediocre or decent les paul over a great sg or a great ES?
