Should I get black (the top) or orange sunburst (the bottom) ?

Normally I'm all for bursts, but in this case I prefer the black.

the sunburst is beautiful (and classic of course), though I've always been partial to black for Les Pauls, owned one myself

If you already have a black one...get sunburst. I try to make every guitar a different color altough I have 5...two are black, one is grey, one is blue and red. I need a white one.

I like the blue one the best, but since that's not an option, I recommend the black one. Black goes with everything.

Sunburst. Black if you're left handed.
Percussion, sir!

Hey, that's where I got my latest electric from.  Wasn't one of those though.  Sunburst.
The best for Les to shipped to your door?

I'm actually not getting it there, because I can get it for $320 at Guitar Center with the sale on Friday. :) But that's the guitar.

In my opinion for a Les Paul it's always got to be the Sunburst or Gold finishes.

Black - Progmetal, Dark prog, Post-rock/metal
Sunburst - Pretty much everything

You have to go with sunburst. Cream or beige would be the best here, but from those two, black is a bit too black for my taste.

My thoughts exactly!
"The disgusting stink of a too-loud electric guitar.... Now, that's my idea of a good time."
