If you don't know how to play guitar I discourage buying a very expensive guitar to start out with.

and i've got a Les Paul which i recently just bought.

In that case... if you can afford it, buy it.
There's no replacement for a quality guitar and you'll find it easier to learn.
Also, if you get fed up with it, something like a Fender Strat (instead) are always sought after and keep a decent price.
You'll have no trouble selling it on.
