Need help with a Gibson guitar

[batzilla]

Back in the early 80's I bought a Gibson Les ( not a custom or standard- I had a standard for awhile as well) and this guitar was a dark wood grain finished guitar. I cannot remember the model name though.

I've searched for it but cant find it anywhere. I am almost certain its was a Les Paul ( at least in shape) and it was a cheaper model than the Custom or Standard.

Anyone remember this guitar?

Does It have a Bolt on Neck? If so, It's probly a Gibson Invader. Have one and they are sweet- Underrated!

[batzilla]

I dont remember for sure but I dont think it had a bolt on and it wasnt a invader.

hmmm...the quest continues...

Thanks for the help though!!

Maybe it was a Hondo Les Paul copy?

Was it a Les Paul Studio?

Different shape, but maybe a Gibson Marauder?

Hmm. I used to have a Gibson Sonex in the 80's. It was shaped a lot like a Les Paul. It came in deluxe, standard, custom and artist models...

Could it be a Junior?

[batzilla]

so far no good but thatnks for the help.

I wish I could remember it !!

I'll keep searching. Was there a *Heritage* model?

I find heritage finish whenever I search but...

How about... "The Paul"

[Rick5150]

Wow, what an awkward spot for a pickup selector switch...

[Zahzoo]

Nice guitars. My cousin still has his 78 "The Paul".

[Nightaway]

I had a Gibson Firebrand special made from walnut that fit the discription.

Maybe it was a Hondo Les Paul copy?

Hey I have one of those somewhere....
