My R8 from 2002.
Apparently, poor photography will be accepted.

What happend?
Who let the magic smoke out?
Nice looking guitar!
That is beautiful! I don't have a Gibson with flame right now. I have a Carvin with a heck of a quilted top, though!
I don't have a gibson with flames at the moment either. Would a run down memory lane be ok?
I have a bit of flame on my 2012 Trad.

If I recall correctly - Gibson Junkie has a Gary Moore LP that I haven't seen pic of in a long while.
I got to put some fingerprints on it a few years ago - and really liked it!

My Gary Moore sig Les Paul had some flame!
I hope nobody is on dial up
Brazilian 2003 R0
2004 R9
1999 R9, I was so stupid to let this one get away
1999 R9, pictures are inadequate to describe how seductively beautiful this guitar is in person
still more to come
Brazilian 2003 R9
2006 R0
2005 R9
not done yet, hope I'm not boring anyone
Brazilian 2003 R8, I thought I'd never sell this guitar but my dad was going through chemo and I needed money to live on while I took care of him. The inside of the back plate has an autograph of Les Paul when I saw him at the Iridium Jazz Club.
My first Historic, a 1999 R9, I had this one the longest

annnnd finally, we come to the last of the flamed gibsons I've had. Some I miss more than others but I feel very fortunate to have been in their presence for however long I was around.
Brazilian 2003 R9, this was hands down both the most beautiful and best sounding of all my 2003 Brazilian Historic Custom Shop reissues. The day I put it up for sale it was bought by a Japanese collector and as far as I know it resides still in the Land of The Rising Sun. I want this one back.

I love flamed maple. Not a Les Paul, but flamey all the same. My CS-336:

Dam Gent's some serious guitar porn in this thread... Lovin it!

Lotsa killer LPs in this thread!
renderit, it should be illegal to own that much flamed beauty.

All nice guitars I'm sure, but the color on that first Les Paul (an R0?) is just DEEP. I think CDaughtry's Faye is the most beautiful Les Paul ever. That one reminds me of it.
Thank you for the positives. Actually I like that one (the top one) the least. It is an R0 and I can't get into the neck at all. The sound is dead on, I love it but I just have gotten away from skinny necks. I am not nuts about dark bursts either, but at least it shows very red around the edges with enough light. Big Al loves it as well. The only reason I don't get rid of it is I have the set. 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61 so it's kinda holding up that end of the bidness.
OMG I might have just made a little tinkle in my jockey shorts.
I played one of these - in a deep, sparkle blue - at a local store recently...it was used at $1999 and I wish I had the $$. What an amazing instrument with a great palette of tones on tap and the easiest playing neck around.

that can show me what laughter means
And we'll fill in the missing colors
In each other's paint-by-number dreams..."
Every time I see that I want it. I can't do 3 pickups though. Other than that I must have an acid green monster like that.
