Royal Flusher's Daily Vegas Pic - Feb 13, 2018 - Hard Rock Hotel Stratocaster Sign

First of all, there are two kinds of huge guitar sign people in the world.

There are Gibson Les Paul huge guitar sign people and Fender Stratocaster huge guitar sign people.

I think the Good Lord made his preference known when he smote the Hard Rock Cafe Las Vegas Les Paul huge guitar sign last year.

It's now been relegated to the Neon Museum, in pieces until they can fund-raise enough to (ahem) re-erect it again.

The giant Strat guitar sign even comes in a lefty model.

Now don't get your patch cords twisted in a bunch... I have tons of respect for Les Paul (the man) and the guitar that bears his name is pretty darn good too.

I know there are lots of Gibson folks who read the blog, so I'm just ribbin' y'all a bit - you know who you are.

Take a peep at the Les Paul - hard to tell what kind of finish is on it...

Now, as far as the Hard Rock Hotel itself goes, it's been sold to Richard Branson - so who knows whether the Strat huge guitar sign will go to the junk heap too?

See the Gibson smoting for yourself.
