I always thought the ebony Les Paul with a cream colored pickguard was bad ass! Al DiMeola used to play one. A friend of mine in high school had one with P90 pick ups that were cream colored too. It weighed a ton though! Would love to have one of them, but with humbuckers.
In the mean time, my faded Les Paul studio in cherry with a black pickguard is serving me very well! Love that guitar, and it doesn't weigh a ton!
