you can't bust BeBop Deluxe riffs out on a Les Paul - it just isn't right.

True.  But I find even with a 335 it's pretty hard to keep up with Billy!  My brother in law bet me a fiver, 25 years ago, that I couldn't play the live version solo on Adventures... - he's still got the fiver.

I have both - LP and 335. They can cover the same ground or they can do different jobs.  Choosing one would be hard, for me possibly the 335.

There’s no way the hook opening on “Made in Heaven” could possibly sound right on a Les Paul and as for the live version of “Adventures in a Yorkshire Landscape”, you should know that is a hallowed piece of music that can only possibly be played by Sir Bill...................I cannot manage it either,more than 40 years after first hearing it!
