ok, i went through the pics i took in 1998. it appears that tom had at least three different les pauls during this era, at least according to the shows i was at. sorry if this info has already been posted; i haven't followed this thread in a while.

first one:

Thank you all for sharing this great info! There’s some awesome stuff in this thread.

ive always been obsessed with Tom’s LP’s. It was a short lived era but I thought they were really cool, and while similar bands at the time were playing Les pauls (Lagwagon, NUFAN, etc) they seemed to have been mostly kept stock.

 

i do want to replicate one of these. I am positive that they are all 1997 les Paul standards but even if I can get one for under $2000 I don’t know that I would want to sticker it up etc. 

 

thinking abiut going the epiphone rout. The wine red trad pro looks like a good starting point as it’s more of the dark spalted top like the 97 Tom had, rather than the common maple top.

Haven't been able to find the Warped Tour 1998/Dude Ranch/Arnette logo, but that's a great start in order to do the replica !

@Burgersandcole It just looks like a certain type of bolt I forget what they’re called but they don’t rotate while you tighten a nut to them. That’s what it looks like. Should be able to find one at any hardware store. Also there’s a guy on YouTube who owns one of Toms old les Paul’s, the one with the Lady Luck sticker on it actually. You could ask him to confirm. Just search on YouTube “Tom Delonge les Paul” his vids will come up
