Customer Reviews

Gorgeous
Contrary to what the "kid" said up top, this guitar is beautiful. It is perfection, and well worth the money, although if you dont have about 5 grand to drop on a guitar any of the other Gibson high end Les Pauls will cose up to 2 grand or more cheaper, but if you have the cash, this guitar is not going to dissapoint. The tone is beautiful and its perfect for playing any type of music from Jazz to Classic Rock to punk and more. I am definately no dissapointed in paying the amount I did to get mine, and mine was used even. One note, if you get a guitar like this take care of it, get it setup and tuned up (either by yourself or a guitar tech if you dont know how) the money spent is worth spending a little more money and time a few times a year to keep it perfect.

A must have!!!
This is the KING of all guitars includind the other les pauls. This guitar has been used by most of the rock star heavymetal bangers and the one and only SLASH of Guns N' Roses. This is a must have guitar and the cost is worth it all. If you are really good at playing guitars YOU must get this. I know i'm definitly happy with mine. Johnny T

It`s the best guitar money can buy and if you can really play it gives an extra boost to your song. Its a great guitar and is used by some of the most famous people (Guns `n Roses, The Who, Eric Clapton) and it got them through. Pay no attention to anybody who says it`s not worth anything. This is a great guitar (but I wouldn`t recomend it to begginers because it`s very expensive) and is a classic. Its a tribute to Rock and a great rocker always needs it.
