    Greetings from the Netherlands

    Hi all!
    I'm Thijs, 33 years old & from the east of the Netherlands.

    Always been a fan of guitarmusic & only started playing acoustic for about 3 years now. But I thought it was time for me to take the step to electric.

    I have some experience in woodworking & crafting due to my work at an interiorbuilding-company, so I was interested to see what I can make of a Les Paul based LP-1M. With the flamed maple top.

    Placed the order & a few weeks later it came to my doorstep. Now I'm just searching for the right color of green I like & then it's time to start.

    Greetings, Thijs

    Thank you all for the warm welcome!

    I'm planning on opening a build-diary.

    So far I'm still searching for the right color of green.
