here is why i personaly preffer the sg over the lp. the les paul basicaly is a solid bodied jazz guitar not a lead instrument and so is designed for people who want to sit in orchestra pits. i have wee hands so lp is unplayable to me (can't do strats either). the lp looks like a shower of shite in comparison to the sg. i also find the weight of the lp makes it so much harder to play. i also find the that the sg gives a more controled o/d compared to lp which distort to much. meh just mo
at the end of the day neither of them is better than the other its all down to which you prefer not what slash prefers or what angus prefers or your best mate prefers its which ever YOU prefer
My gibson les Paul standard cost £1124 & my sg standard cost £1050 but the les paul comes in loads of finnishes and graphic ones too.

The only thing that sets you apart is your playing. My advice? Get both.

i LOVE the look of the les paul traditional but i know i'll save up and buy an SG standard instead because:
the neck is thinner
you can reach the top frets
i dont have to struggle to keep it balanced on my leg when i sit down
it's much lighter
OH and i play an epiphone sg at the moment so dont listen to me because i'm completely bias :D

when the sg came out les paul told the gibson exec's,'There's no fuckin' way you're putting my name on that".
