(Sold) Laid Back LPC-450

owner: Shin

2014.10.7: I liked the look of the Legend Les Paul Custom type, but other than that I thought the specs were too subtle.
I kept looking for a black Les Paul Custom with a set neck on Yahoo! Auctions and found this one, and it was easily within my budget.
There is one large spot of paint peeling on the exterior side, but the rest is fine.
The previous owner added a center PU, and the controls are 3Vol and 1 Tone each, and the center output can be used only.
The control specs are not what you would expect from Gibson.
I wanted to play on this guitar someday because a guitarist of Sads used to use a 3PU custom and I wanted to copy him.
It came with a semi-hard gig bag that was better than the gig bag I had at the time, so it was a good buy in many ways. w
2015.10.12: I was ready to renew the electrical system, so I took it apart and found that I had bought it without checking carefully that the pots were not the size of the long shafts (...)
I couldn't use the switch pots I had prepared, so I ended up diverting the stock parts and built my dream Duncan 3-shot HSH Les Paul.
2015.12.7: Edwards has become my main guitar and I got a 3PU SG, so I decided that I don't expect to use it often even with modifications and prepared to let it go.
I put back the center and front, and the rear was replaced with a stock one that came with the sustainer FR. I put the rear PU on the sustainer FR.
I thought at the time that if I reversed the center bridge PU and put it on, it would stop phasing. I thought so at the time, but I learned in later years that the phase of the PU should not be done there in the first place (see below).
I wired the rear and front vols to the same position so that I wouldn't get confused if I changed the controls from a normal Les Paul to a Les Paul, and the rear tone was the master tone for all PUs and the front tone was at the center vol.
If I hadn't gotten a 3PU SG, I might not have known how to wire...
2015.12.28: I gave it away at a music store.

When I switched to Duncan, I thought it was too stable.
