Maybe you mean using a Les Paul will make you feel tired?

If you mean by that, the heavy Les Paul guitar is actually making your shoulder tired because you are carrying it using the strap.

i see, thank you for you guys solution, can the leather strap solve the problem?

@blacktrix,
what you mean by It's a small price to pay to get such a heavy, "lemak" tone.
you mean the tone of les paul is weak or what?


Added on November 17, 2008, 12:58 amand addition, im the kind of person who always shake my guitar when playing.
im like my chemical romance and i always play like Frank Iero if you know who is him and how he play in the concert & live.

Leather strap can make your shoulder feel comfortable.

No, it is a price to pay to get such a heavy guitar also a guitar that produce heavy tone.

The Les Paul is a heavy guitar, all you can do is just keep playing it (while you standing and carrying it with the strap) until you are get used to the weight. Until then, you will feel it is comfortable for you. Like you cannot carry a 10kg item today, maybe you should try carry it more and maybe tomorrow you can carry it.

I suggest you better play the guitar normally first. Then only think about that.

5. The sounds of the guitar will be so lemak and so creamy that you will end up having high musical cholesterol.
