wasn't having a go...randy probably just said what he could remember on the spot when asked. I think the super distortion is my favourite pick up. I have a JB, a super 2, a bareknuckles nailbomb, tonezone and a full shred in guitars at the mo and have had EMG's and I just seem to go back to the super D........I think over the duncan jazz I would go for the humbucker from hell for clean sounds....bloody nice pick up

Randy did have 2 cream (antique white) Les Paul's. Maybe he was referring to the other...

No, it's fairly common knowledge (Among RR fanatics, that is) that Randy believed his main LP to be a '64. He never knew it was a '74.

And where did you hear that he had 2 white LP's?

Also, his LP wasn't antique white. It was a white LP that changed to cream because of the nitrocellulose finish on it.
