If you've been really nice to Santa...
...he might bring you something special:

So yes, it's a Les Paul Studio, the cheapest way to get an original Gibson, and it's definitely not a Les Paul Custom, but it still sounds great. You'll be able to hear it in the next beta, I've recorded a fair bit of new music already. I'll probably also re-record the "Paula" equip sound with the correct guitar

This is getting ridiculous:

Left to right:
*My heavily used strat, "Made in Japan" from 1988 - best guitars ever built by Fender (discounting anything Pre-CBS, i.e. from the 1950s and early 60s, which normal people like me can't afford). This exact guitar makes an appearance in the game as the "Porticaster". This was my first real electric guitar and is still my favourite.
*Stagg J-Bass copy, this was an extremely lucky find - I needed a bass for some homerecording stuff and decided to spend a maximum of 100€ on eBay, with the intention of maybe getting a better bass later on. I spent only 80€ on this thing, and it's absolutely great - nice, heavy wood, stays in tune indefinitely, and has a very nice, deep growling sound.
*Fender Telecaster, "Baja Player" made in Mexico, but quite decent quality. You can hear it quite often in the game music (the India and Pirates themes were recorded with the Tele)
*My shiny new Les Paul Studio
*Epiphone SG320 "Emily" - not exactly a great guitar, I bought it because I liked the paintjob (at least it wasn't too expensive)
*Rodriguez Model A - nice, mellow tone, plays wonderfully
