Les Paul's are popular around here. I'd like to get one but it's said the current production leaves a lot to be desired. Weight relief holes and chambers to make up for lesser quality wood. Spotty quality control. These are just some of the things I have read about regarding the latest guitars. How true? Might just be the stuff sent over here? One thing I've heard is the best exports go to Japan. (Makes no sense though)
Can you guys with years of experience playing them give your opinion?
If it's true,when were the last good LP's made? 70's 80's?
