Feature:
Standard features of a Les Paul, but the head stock has the old Gibson Holly inlaid in mother of pearl, a very nice feature of this guitar.

Quality:
Gibson Les Paul Quality.

Value:
Any Gibson Les Paul Antique Classic for under $1200 is a great deal, let alone one that was made to a limit of 400. An instant collectors item.

Desirability:
Very Retro hand painted design by a famous artist. It is also hand signed by the artist (Tom Morgan).

Sound:
Great sound from the 57 classic pickups. has a nice sustain to it.

Ease of Use:
As with all gibson factory guitars, the action was not set to where I'd like it. I made an adjustment myself and it plays great now. I am still going to send it out to have it setup by a pro, but after that one simple adjustment, I can put it off for a while now.

Support:
I tried to find out from gibson what number of the 400 my guitar is, and they claim they can't tell me based on the serial number. I think this is b.s. since they have a limited edition guitar, they have to know what order they were made in.

Sound:
This Guitar is the best sounding out of the 5 Les Pauls that I own! The quality is what you would expect from Gibson. I'm just afraid to scratch it it so beautiful!
