moreIn [this](http://www.guitarworld.com/kiss-guitarist-tommy-thayer-discusses-epiphone-white-lightning-les-paul-momoiro-clover-z-and-more) Guitar World interview, Tommy mentions his '72 Telecaster Deluxe: "There was a time in the Eighties when no one wanted Les Pauls. Everyone wanted Charvels and Jacksons. I actually bought one of my best guitars back then. This one was a ‘72 Deluxe that was routed out for regular humbuckers. I bought it at this guitar shop in Hollywood in 1985 or 1986 for like $350. No one wanted them, but I sure did and I took advantage of the great prices. By the time Guns N' Roses came out, things changed and Gibsons became real popular again."
