It wasn't so much the body type for me - I love the look and feel of the LP body. On the 3-4 I tried today, it was just the neck that I couldn't get around. It may have been the finish. I'm not quite sure, I wasn't paying attention to why I didn't like it so much as I was trying to figure out if I could get over what I didn't like about it just so I could have an LP.
And then I realized how ridiculous that was and left the store. I'll try some LPs again on Monday, but I've not got high hopes.
Though it could have been that the ones there weren't in the best condition from having been played by everyone that comes through the store. One of the "new" traditionals I played had a big scrape on the side from some numbnuts that must have dropped it or something. The GC I'm going to has a better reputation, so we'll see. But honstly, it would have to be a hell of a guitar that convinces me to go LP over McCarty, because most of the LP's I want are near twice the price of the PRS.
