A cheap, playable Les Paul Jr. copy

I just finished fixing up this Baldwin / Gibson Les Paul Jr. copy. I shielded the pickup cavity and the electronics cavity with copper tape. I also I installed a new wraparound bridge, which allows for minor intonation adjustments, and a Dream 90 (a humbucker-sized P90). I'm playing through a VoxAC15C1. For about $50 I think the guitar ended up sounding respectable. (Sorry about the lo-fi recording quality of my phone)





And here's the video:
